US Forces captured a 'known Al Qaeda terrorist' along with five other men, including Saudi and Pakistani nationals, according to a statement released by the Coalition today. The identities of those seized in the Khost City raid have been withheld pending the sensitive nature of the operation
The raid took place at a compound in Khost City. The statement indicated no shots were fired and no one was injured during the operation. Several women and children were present in the compound and a cache of military supplies was uncovered.
The stash included armor piercing ammunition, grenades, AK-47 assault rifles and camera equipment that contained surveillance footage of nearby military installations.
Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters are known to operate and live throughout Khost province which borders Pakistan. Fighters from neighboring Pakistan are also known to easily pass through the border area into Afghanistan on a daily basis due to the rugged terrain and well established smuggling routes.
Counter-terrorism operations launched by US forces targeting al Qaeda compounds in Nangahar and Khost provinces has been stepped up since August, netting and killing dozens of suspected al Qaeda militants.
That was pretty graphic for the state of the technology back then. I was in my early teens when I saw it--rather disturbing to me then. But then again I saw Jaws II when I was even younger and had nightmares for months after.
Yeah by Tony Snow "accidently" during a press conference..
AS he begs the reporters NOT TO PRINT IT....
LoL...
Seems like it would be too late to get people to the polls who weren't otherwise going.
OBL - most likely pushing up daisies.
Ayman al-Zawahiri - he is the real brains.
MSM would never mention it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not until Wednesday at least, and then it would be deep sixed in the classified ads.
They wouldn't announce it until after the election in order to stifle the conspiracy theorists.
bttt
There was another "horror" movie I saw back then (yeah, so I was under 17...blame the theater for letting my buddies and I go in!) Can't remember much about it, other than the "cute teen girl" was really a teen guy, and he/she killed pretty much everyone at the summer camp.
That messed with my mind for a long time too!
They'd try to get him on the ticket in California.
They wouldn't release it until Wed. because even I would find it a little strange.
Now, if I were a sadistic sort - which I'm not, and I want that clear - but if I were feeling a little mean and had a DU account, I'd...heh heh...
What was the movie???
Ahhhhhhh...
RRRRRRRRR.....
OOOOOOOOO.....
VVVVVVVVV.....
EEEEEEEEE.....
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
Anyone have a DU account?
Was he really, really tall?
But they would all be back to vote, next election.
Their response would be similar to what it was when Saddam was sentanced - they'd claim that it's insignificant and doesn't make up for the "failures" in Iraq. Failure, failure, failure - the only word the left knows. And it's the wrong word.
You know what really freaked me out was Creepshow, when the critter in the cage bit off half that guys face--maybe that's why I'm so squeamish around blood.
