Here is an Austrailian paper on the incident:

Such killings should only harden the resolve of coalition forces to bring democracy to Iraq and justice to terrorists...

For al-Zarqawi's reasoning to be accepted, we must also accept that he and other Islamic extremists did not care about the thousands of Muslims killed and tortured at the same prison by Saddam Hussein.

This is the SF Chronical:

The terrorists are not fooling anyone in the civilized world by trying to link this murder to the torture at Abu Ghraib. Neither is justifiable, and each must be addressed with fitting punishment.
