Newly released video of the leader of al-Qaida in Iraq shows Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (AH’-boo MOO’-sahb ahl-zahr-KOW’-ee) decked out in American tennis shoes and fumbling with a machine gun.

The U-S military command says the footage was found during a series of raids in April on purported terror cell safe houses southwest of Baghdad.

Major General Rick Lynch says al-Zarqawi chose not to show the world this piece of video in which he’s wearing “his New Balance tennis shoes,” and in which his associates “do things like grab the hot barrel of the machine gun and burn themselves.”

Sounds like the guided munition career advancement program we’ve provide for the Caliphascists has been a big success.
