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.

.....across the Kenyan border.

The Somalis welcomed to Lewiston, Maine by Catholic Charities and Governor Baldacci, are also from this Kenyan Border region, where their traditional pursuits were caravan raiding, goat, cattle, and camel rustling.

These occupations have not taken root in post-industrial Maine. Yet.

< channeling Bill Murray in Caddyshack >
“So I’ve been hunting this scumbag for 10 years, since he blew two embassies...and I catch up with him in Somalia back in’08. Got him in my crosshairs, see...

I pull the trigger and Boom! Down goes Sabhan! Sweet. Now I’m thinking, that $5 Million reward is mine. Just got to walk over, scrape some DNA, and cruise back to Washington.

But then...POW! Boom! Two cruise missiles hit his dead body before I can reach him.

So I took out this wanted terrorist, but that’s why I’m still broke.”

< /end Bill Murray Caddyshack rant >
