Lol
They’re doing a report on FOX in a minute
They take the time do a report and invite a great guest -Walid Phares - and have a person on who doesn’t know very much, asking stupid questions.
Though I will say, Phares seemed a bit more evasive and diplomatic than usual. I’m taking that as a good sign.
FOX is reporting 20 dead
fingers crossed that he accepted an invitation to this soiree.

Fwiw, AQ laments some recent losses in Afghanistan.
Al Qaeda has lost nine commanders in Afghanistan
By Shamim Shahid (Our correspondent)
16 March 2008
PESHAWAR — Al Qaeda has confirmed killing of its nine leading commanders during fighting against the US-led forces and bomb explosions in southern parts of Afghanistan in the recent past.
"Majority of these people have been killed in Zabul province, bordering Pakistan," said Al Qaeda spokesman Ahmad Salman in a statement, received by this scribe yesterday.
Those killed included two Pakistani nationals affiliated to Al Qaeda and four Saudis. The remaining ones belonged to Kuwait, Tajikistan and Turkey.
Ahmad Salman said that a couple of days back a severe clash took place in Zabul province, which caused precious lives to Al Qaeda and Taleban. Similar clashes took place in Helmand and Kandahar provinces of Afghanistan.
Those killed were identified as Abu Anas, Abu Abdullah Al Asmi, Shuaib Sahrayee and Abu Masaab Al Tami from Saudi Arabia, Khalid and Nauman from Pakistan, Abu Zaki from Kuwait, Jafar from Tajikistan and Abu Musa from Turkey.
Ahmad Salman while disclosing the names of killed persons requested their family members "don’t wait for them anymore. All these nine persons are no more in this world."
He said that killed persons have been laid to rest in various parts of Afghanistan.
Salman also said that Al Qaeda and Taleban are going to intensify resistance in summer.
“He said that killed persons have been laid to rest in various parts of Afghanistan.”
According to reports, in various parts in Pakistan too. Lol
We love when alQaeda laments!
Wow. They wanted to make really sure about this one.
That's not just one Predator, either.
Eight foreigners and four of their supporters were killed," said a district government official, who declined to be identified.
To get this kind of firepower tossed at it.....there was a VERY HVT there.
Two Pakistani intelligence officials in the area, both speaking on condition of anonymity because of the nature of their work, said another house nearby was also destroyed. Arab and Uzbek militants had been staying in the house, which belongs to a tribesman named Safraz Khan, the officials said.
Eight to ten people were killed in the second house, they said
