The fanatical Taliban mastermind behind recent attacks in which six British soldiers died in Afghanistan has been killed in a missile attack by an Army Apache helicopter.
In what military chiefs described as a 'deliberate and surgical strike', the 35-year-old rebel leader - known as Sadiqullah - died alongside nine fellow Taliban fighters after the Apache fired two laser-guided Hellfire missiles at their red pick-up truck and destroyed it.
The rebel leader had been tracked down after weeks of secret intelligence work.
His death would have been instantaneous, as the warheads of the 5ft-long missiles, which travel at 950mph, are loaded with high-explosives designed to destroy even the heaviest tank armour.

While I applaud the death of this subhuman piece of garbage, I would have preferred that the last thing he saw was a line of 25mm rounds walking towards his vehicle.

“His death would have been instantaneous...”
The only bad thing about this as far as I can tell.

Wow, for me, the last thing this Islamofascist should have seen was Ka-Bar knife sinking into his chest.
Laser guided ordinance only impresses so much, if one wisher to leave an impression, up close and man to man is the way to do it.
“There damn tech killed him”
or
“His throat was cut in 5 different places, he never had a chance”
You decide..

There were some reports that head-chopping AQ devil Zarqawi was still alive and semi-concious when he was dragged out of his bombed hide-out, but died within seconds.
If so, the last thing he ever saw was an American soldier standing over him.
