Aide to Zarqawi's replacement killed by own bomb
World Tribune ^ | June 21, 2006 | WT

Posted on 06/22/2006 2:08:37 PM PDT by radar101

The assistant to Al Qaida's new network chief has been killed in a foiled insurgency strike.

Iraqi security sources said a lieutenant of Al Qaida network chief Abu Ayoub Al Masri was found killed in a car on its way to an insurgency strike. The sources said a bomb inside the car blew up prematurely and killed the lieutenant and three other Al Qaida operatives.

Officials identified the Al Masri aide as Mansour Sulayman Mansour Khalifi Al Mashhadani. The U.S. military confirmed the killing, reported to have taken place in Yusufiyah, west of Baghdad on June 19. U.S.-led coalition spokesman Maj. Gen. William Caldwell said Al Mashhadani was one of the five leading members of the Al Qaida organization. Caldwell said Al Mashhadani was Al Qaida's spiritual leader and a close associate of Al Zarqawi. The spokesman said an Al Qaida cell leader was also killed.

"Wonder what was on the car radio"

Perhaps:

Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.
I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

Sending out the higher ups with bombs means that they are starting to reach the bottom of the virgin seeking barrel. Not as much so if he only intended to deliver it to the "end user" (Islamakazie) or to plant it and detonate it remotely. Still..

Notice to all martyr candidates:

Allah has run out of virgins.

All future inductees will be referred to the "self-service" area until further notice.

Premature detonation is always a problem with these people...

Premature detonation is what their fathers should have practiced about nine months before they were born.

Guest Commentary
by Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi
Senior VP, Al-Qaeda In Iraq

What's the fizz, homeslice?
I realize it's been long-time no-blog, but the dung continues to roll downhill here at the B-town office, and the revised budget doesn't cover pooper scoopers. My lovable 'tards keep opening the splodeygram eVites from Team Satan, so let's just say Zarkman's been keepin' it on the downlow.

Man, I swear I could almost tolerate this s**t if all I had to deal with was the infidels and their local Iraqi ho's. Sure, they'll pop a tomahawk cap in your a$$, but you can kinda understand where they're coming from.

Upside, you have that fine virgin coochie waiting for you in Paradise. But nooooo, Zarkman also has to cope with his own "team." Holy prophet, with jihadis like these who needs enemies?

Let me 'shplain it fer ya. Like last month, when a couple of the French recruits knocked on my cubicle while I was filling out the Q3 casualty spreadsheet. "Um, Monsieur Zarqawi, we would like to request a transfer to the Paris office."
Okay, so I'm like looking over at Khalid, trying not to laugh. "mmm, okayyyy, any particular reason?"
"Well, sir, since we are French, and France is hot right now, um, and we know the territory and all, we just, like, thought our jihad org skill development would be, well better in the, uh...Paris..."
"Mmm hmm. And what skills would those be?"
"Well, uh, you know. Car burning, subway Jew beating, things like that. People skills."

S___! I though I was gonna spray some Mecca-Cola through my nose when I saw Khalid behind them, doing that throat-slash thingy with his hook, but I kept it together. "Sure! Sounds like a plan, guys! Umm, why don't you go with Khalid. He'll take you out back and have you fill out the transfer forms." Long story short, they're back in Paris. Torsos, at least.

In fairness I guess you expect that kind of pussified goatcrap from French recruits, even when they're shahids. Weasels or not, at least they have enough sense to try to save their own a$$e$. But man, then there are these crazy flaming Saudi and Yemeni and Syrian aholes. Those guys are so stupid that they're already blowing themselves up before they get their luggage unloaded from the courtesy van. We got a little joke here at the office:
What's the last thing a Saudi says to a Syrian before they met Allah?
"What does this button do?"

Do you qualify for Martyr status if you blow yourself up?

If so, why?

5 points for each correct answer.

Since they lost their master bomb maker back in January, the quality of Al Quaeda's bombs has just gone to pieces.

Another non-qualifier for the coveted 72 virgin award ...

As Steve Young has aptly noted:

. . .prompting Allah to issue the following statement:

"He can forget the 72 virgins. He'll be lucky to get one or two red-headed ninety-year-olds. This whole kill-a-bunch-of-innocents-and-then-you-get -into-paradise junk has been a divine pain in the rear. I've got these lunatic jihad freaks praying to Me maybe five-six times a day for guidance and then these yokels go out and spread hate and violent crapola. As far as I'm concerned, the bunch of 'em can go to hell."

"And it's been hell up here, too," added Bambi Mandrell, a representative of the Heaven's Virgins Against The Bombers. "Ever since those jokers down there started trying to shove these nutballs down our throats, you can't go anywhere without some exploded Hamas or Al Quaeda fundamentalist asking us for a piece of you know what. A lot of us virgins had to work very hard to remain this way. Why would we give it up to every Tom, Dick and Mohammed who has the asinine idea that blowing up some innocent would turn us on?"

No, it was put together by a video/ad company to show VW what they could do, IIRC. VW distanced themselves from it, strongly.

Here's an interesting comment about the video, ostensibly from a Palestinian:

being a palestinian myself i would consider this add to be greatly offensive and racist. Portraying an arab wearing the koffiyya to be the bomber is a generalization.....remember palestinians are not the only oppressed people that have been forced to commit such atrocities due to injustice done upon them......suicide bombing is against humanity, yet remeber the people commiting these acts are desperate people in need of urgent help....making fun of them for some stupid car add is very very cruel.

(Emphasis added)

"Forced to commit"? Uhhh, yeah, OK. What ever makes you feel better so you can sleep at night, Abu.
