BBC: Zarqawi "thug" unlike Bin Laden

The death of Zarqawi is great news, but let's get on with complaining about the press coverage. This, for instance:
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was not a global mastermind like al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden, says the BBC's security correspondent, Frank Gardner.

Instead he was a bloodthirsty and violent thug, who made enemies and several mistakes that might have contributed to his downfall.
So Bin Laden isn't a thug? Oh right, I forgot, he's gentle and pious. Unbelievable.
