The media in the Arab world understand the importance of today’s events:

After al-Maliki’s news conference, the stations showed clips from al-Zarqawi’s last appearance in a videotape aimed at rallying supporters. They also hosted analysts and experts to discuss the implications of al-Zarqawi’s death.
“This is the most important news not only in the past few weeks but also for the next few weeks,” said Nabil al-Khatib, executive editor of the Dubai-based satellite Al-Arabiya TV.
“Al-Zarqawi has been a key player not only in Iraq but also in the whole region. Therefore, his absence will have an impact on the course of political developments,” he told The Associated Press.
