“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.”
