U.S. forces found, targeted and killed in a Somali desert city the senior al Qaeda operative who masterminded the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Africa and had since spent a decade in hiding, The Washington Times has learned.

Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, who is one of the FBI's most-wanted terrorists, was the target of a U.S. missile strike on a residence in Dobley, a small town in southern Somalia near the Kenyan border, according to a U.S. military official who spoke to The Times on the condition of anonymity because of the nature of the operation.

Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan

Why was he in Somalia? Isn't he in Ohio or Texas?

Actually, before I saw the other posts, I though it was a pic of a young B.O. as a joke.

Oops, sorry about that folks. I meant to write:

Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan (D), a Kenyan visiting Somalia. Using his middle name is probably racist or otherwise bigoted.

>> Uh — is it permissible to say things like that anymore?

As long as you can’t help it, then you’re a victim, and it’s OK.

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

The 34-year-old Nabhan and other al Qaeda members are thought to have been killed in the attack, according to sources who spoke to The Times. Until the DNA forensics come back, they won't know. But we do know that the missle made alot of parts of some very evil guys. Looks like the Paradise Express has left the station! Better order up some virgins! In the meantime, I'm going to order a margarita and toast our guys! The finest in the world! Fantastic job, guys! Keep it up!

HOLY SMOKES!

He DOES look like Hussein Obama!

(More precisely, he looks like a cross between Hussein and OJ Simpson.)
