There was an explosion and the house caught fire, the sources said, adding that villagers retrieved five bodies and rescued three injured people from the debris of the house. Their names could not be ascertained, but official sources said that they were all Arabs.

I wonder if they ever found molecules of that tub of guts Adam Gadahn?

Thank you csvset for this ping.
The grim Reaper is doing it's business.

It seems as though Adam “Lumpy” Rutherford” Gadahn has been scarce lately. Perhaps he’s dead? It would be nice to know that a couple of Hellfires blew his sorry ass up.
5 hours? Were the militants sleeping... or afraid to make a run for it! Seems these days, you can't run or hide for long.
Weak from fasting? Ramadan and all that.. Piling in to a pickup probably would have had the same result... Boom!
From “THe Hunt for Red October”
“Oh no, not again!”
That’s an awesome platform. They seem to know that they’re buzzing around, yet.. Boom!
They don’t make houses in Pakistan like they used to.
Need to buy more home insurance.
Do you have anything to add to the discussion about Adam Gadahn on this thread?
Bush’s policies have these animals hiding in caves and hovels by day and night, fearing for their lives, never knowing when the Predators or Reapers who lurk in the sky, hunting them, will end their wretched existance.
awesome. die terrorist bastards.
How many Safe Houses does Al Qaeda own? One less.
Exactly! Hope they were on radios or cell phones screaming "what the F do we do now!".
Also interesting... trying to flush out the roaches.
Here’s to the troops driving the Predator and to Ern, to recover well.
The Taliban’s dreaded Spring Offensive was successful — Many died.
The Taliban’s feared Summer Offensive was successful — Many died.
The Taliban’s promised Fall Offensive will be successful — Many will die...
The Shit Magnets in Iraq and Afghanistan are quite powerful and effective — drawing militant Islamist barbarians to their death like moths to a flame..
It’s almost like shooting over a baited field... Is that legal?
And the place was probably illuminated by an infrared or ultraviolet laser from miles away by our Special Forces. Or they were closer and just gave the coordinates.
It is for now.. we will see what happens in November.
I STILL think Sylvester Stallone missed his calling as a comedian. Joe Paturbo was the best in Death Race 2000.
Oh my goodness, we are killing "foreigners" on PURPOSE! Those poor Sweeds, Germans, Austrians, Spaniards, Dutch, Frenchman, Englishman, how could America be so heartless?...
Oh, you mean to tell me those "foreigners" were ISLAMIC terrorists? Then WHY DIDN'T you say so in the first place?...
Because the powers that be in our government and State department along with those in the media have deemed it politically incorrect to admit that the followers of Islam, the so-called "Religion of Peace" are terrorists who want to destroy America and the West and want to convert, enslave or kill all of us "infidels" who do not worship their false "god" or believe in their false "prophet" and sexual child molester Mohamed?

No, the Persians and Asians who populate Pakistan and Afghanistan refer to Arabs as “foreigners.”
That’s the reference, and that’s why it’s repeated in the Dawn article.
I stand... er sit corrected. That said, there is an tremendous effort being made to expunge “Islamic terrorist”, “Islamic terrorism”, “Islamic fascism”, etc... from public discourse when dealing with Islamic terror.
There once was a man named Dawar
Whose house was bombed from afar
He put up some guests
who needed a rest
Now they reside in a jar.
LOL!! May I steal your poem?
Sure!
Thanks! (I”m an old car nut myself)
