I first saw this on a Russian site and now on Aljazeera.  Maybe he hasn't
been as successful as we have thought.  Or they really just want an Iraqi
in charge.  Not sure what to make of it.

Iraq's resistance has replaced Abu Musab al-Zarqawi as political head of
the rebels, the son of Osama bin Laden's mentor has said in Jordan.

Hudayf Azzam, 35, who claims close contacts with the fighters, said on
Sunday: "The Iraqi resistance's high command asked Zarqawi to give up
his political role and replaced him with an Iraqi, because of several
mistakes he made.
