One might think they would be embarrased to admit they failed once again. Dopes drive at high speed bomb ladden vehicle(s) toward into a road that they know will have perhaps 25mm recoiless rifles, tow missiles, 50 caliber machine guns waiting to fill them full of lead and explosions. I realize they are goons, but they are also dopes.
Dopes, for sure. Only dopes would want to live in the 9th Century instead of in the 21st.
Failed in terms of destructiveness but did a job on crude prices.
That's my thinking, but I figure they are relying on the MSM to spin it their way. Notice the first line of the article says "attack," not "failed attack."
DUBAI (Reuters) - Saudi-born Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda group claimed responsibility for Friday's attack on a major Saudi oil facility at Abqaiq, the group said in an Internet statement.
