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.

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.

I would be more confident of the kill if were not for that highlighted phrase in the report. I remember all too many times when the first breathless reports of something like this are later shown to be premature.

Are you sure you haven't noticed anything different lately?

By gum you just scared me. I run out and checked. No, my camels are fine, alhumdoolillah!

Reckon it's been a bit cold for our resident Somalis. What with keepin' 4 wives warm, and circumsizing girl infants, and pickin' up them welfare checks and food stamps, they's pretty busy as it is. Hardly a moment to spare for caravan raiding ... a little light banditry has been about it.

The Desert of Maine hasn't spread too much to come out and greet them, either.

I’m guessing that President Bush has an ALL-POINTS bulletin out for any major terrorist believed to be still alive. The reports have been here at FR about this attack killing 13, another house bombed over there in Pakistan with HIGH TARGETS involved, etc. It’s pretty clear that Bush wants things mopped up as much as possible before he turns over the keys.

Thank you for your compassion and understanding...

I have a serious and troublesome affliction.

When I see $hi+ on the wall, I can’t pretend it’s chocolate.

“Political Correctness” has always struck me as the theology of the ignorant, slackers, cowardly, weak or incompetent.

Just beautiful. Makes me want to weep.

You two have got me in stitches today.

You guys missed your true calling. That’s funnier than anything I ever saw or heard on the Letterman show.

[SampleMan]

Actually this is change I can believe in.

That's beautiful.

We are keeping an eye on our local imams. One of our NGmen (MY NEPHEW!) figured out that that the local imam was calling the folks to prayer so that Allah would give them the strength to slay all the infidels. Cheerful thought for the day from Muhammed (May Peace Be Upon Him)

Wouldn't mind a cruise missile up their alhumdoolillah, but since their mosque is over the hardware store, it could get messy. Anyway, I am getting so politically correct that I wear my PETA nametag over to the VFW. We're all (The Moon) God's children, now, ain't we?

I take that back; I should have said, “Liberals”, not “democrats”.

Some republicans fit the bill too.

wooohoooo!!!!!!!!

“Its 3 oclock and the US embassy has been bombed, who do you want answering that phone, the guy with the Muslim sounding name or the wife of the guy who passed the buck to the Republican who took care of business?”

WAY TO GO, TROOPS!

... Looks kinda familiar.

That's an old picture. Here's a more recent one.

No, I’ve been hanging with the kids too long.
That’s my hysterical laughter face.

Outstanding news.

Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan is now feeding the earthworms and roaches. At least whatever parts remained.
