...wonder what went through his mind...

Trials are not for tyrants or terrorists. The Mussolini method is best.

His last conscious thought was that the Americans got him!

I once had a firecracker go off in my hand as a kid. Felt like I'd hit it with a hammer. I'm hoping he had the full body experience (internal and external) from that those Mk-82s.
Like most true Americans, I'm glad to hear he didn't die instantly.

That's true--Janet is definitely not the dainty silky undies type. Bill liked her but she's no thong wearing Monica that's for sure.

Plus - If ya haven't seen the article from this thread, it says shots came from the house, so he knew what was goin' down:

"As the American commandos took up positions, Mr. Ismael said, someone from inside the house in the date grove began shooting". "The Americans returned fire, Mr. Ismael said, but the firefight did not last long."

"One of the F-16's, now in position over Hibhib, released a laser-guided 500-pound bomb."

As Rush said this morning. Glad the last thing he saw was a U.S. soldier. He knew we got him before he croaked.

I loved the CNN reporter (Starr?) asking if the monster had gotten medical aid
before he expired.

I'm afraid to say if I was the spokesperson, I would have said "Lady,
we did think about giving him a free radical bi-lateral vasectomy...but he
just didn't have anything for us to work on."
