Pakistan Taliban Commander: We Have 'Thousands of Suicide Bombers' Who Can 'Target Washington, Paris, London, and Kabul'
On August 25, 2009, a Pakistani Urdu-language newspaper reported that Waliur Rehman, the commander of the Taliban militants in Pakistan's tribal district of South Waziristan Agency, had said that his group has "thousands of suicide bombers" who can "target Washington, Paris, London, and Kabul."

This might not be a bad thing. Just saying ...
...what most of us are thinking but couldn't figure as tactful a way of saying.
It IS a bad thing...and that’s a fact.
Most of the people “educated” in Washington DC’s schools couldn’t find Pakistan, let alone the Swat Valley, on a map.
Luckily, most of the people in the Swat Valley couldn’t find Washington DC on a map either.
Or...
When the CIA lets DC burn the future brass at the future CIA can claim the Dresden defense in 70 years when the info is declassified.
Yep, most of the Taliban threats are meant for the Afghanistan-Pakistan area.
The unfortunate truth is that the jihad is global, and it doesn’t take a person from Pakistan to carry out the threat in any of these locations.
So, bottom line, this is a threat duly posted, duly noted and now it is archived.
Do you suppose they could squeeze San Francisco onto the list? I mean, just as a suggestion...
That is something to be most thankful for!
“It IS a bad thing...and that’s a fact.”
I have often wondered how different it would have been if the 911 terrorists had concentrated their efforts on Washington instead of the World Trade Center...
Some would say we would be better off.
You mean the same member of the public that overwhelmingly put Obama and the RATs in control of this country? Not getting a warm fuzzy from that image.
Well, when you have thousands of people pouring across the border every night, it wouldn’t be shocking to me at all if there were terrorists already among us, waiting to strike.
The two Muslim D.C. Snipers beat them to it by several years, but we’re not supposed to refer to them as Islamic terrorists.
All I know is that when we get hit, the current president is so stupid that he;ll blame this either on Bush or “rightwing radicals”. I’ll see you all at the nearest FEMA detention center, block F for FR..
Hey Hadji, we have thousands of nuclear weapons, which we can use to target Pashtun areas.
Uh.. no. They are brain-dead. I'm talking the OTHER half of the population, including now, many of the people that sincerely rue voting for the Zero!
People are more watchful these days, much more so, according to more than one report.
Bad Jemian, Bad!
I’m a conservative, not a Republican. I’ve pretty much disowned the best rep in the US House, John Kline, for voting — twice! — for the first bailout that started all the bailouts and stimuli and buyings and other Bountiful Stuff (a Glenn Beck euphimism for BS).
I know we should care about our elected and appointed officials, regardless of party. There are some good ones — but so BLASTED few! Lighten up and consider having most of the dross, and only some of the keepers, just gone....
Pakistan Taliban Commander: We Have ‘Thousands of Suicide Bombers’ Who Can ‘Target Washington, Paris, London, and Kabul’
This reeks of desperation. What are you waiting for? Oh right, you’ve been kept on the run for the past 8 years.
This is Baghdad Bobbish puff talk.
But if push came to shove, might some of our wonderful ACORN folks be persuaded to deliver tit for tat back at the Slammies’ home towns?
