CAIRO (AP) -- A U.S. drone strike killed a son of Egyptian-born Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman in Afghanistan, a radical Islamist group said.

Egypt's Gamaa Islamiya, or Islamic Group, had posted on its website on Saturday a notice mourning the death of Ahmed Abdel Rahman, the son of the "Blind Sheik" now serving a life sentence in the U.S. for his involvement in a plot to blow up New York city landmarks.

Abdel Rahman was the spiritual leader of the Gamaa, as well as of the men convicted in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

Agreed: I do not really trust a report put out by any radical Islamist group, or any Islamic group for that matter.

How do we know this is true? I’m still waiting for proof that Bin Laden is dead.

Oh, this is so mean, he was officiating at the wedding of a young couple in love.

Okay, so, only half of the couple was young, the groom was 72.

And the bride wasn’t really in love.

In fact, everyone at the scene of this crime against humanity appears to have been male.

And heavily armed, apart from those who appear to have been working on a cure for something in an adjoining room.

Thanks Berlin_Freeper.
