Al Qaeda terrorists have been left fearing the Black Death plague after it wiped out at least 40 insurgents at an Algerian training camp, it was reported today. The horror disease, which killed 25 million people in medieval Europe, is understood to have been found in a militant’s body dumped at a roadside. Terror group AQLIM (al Qaeda in the Land of the Islamic Maghreb) was forced to turn its shelter in the Yakouren forests into mass graves and flee, it has been claimed.
Now al Qaeda chiefs are said to fear the plague has been passed into other cells - and possibly Taliban fighters in Afghanistan. Many insurgents may choose to surrender for treatment rather than die a horrible death. ‘This is the deadliest weapon yet in the war against terror,’ a security source told The Sun: ‘Most of the terrorists do not have the basic medical supplies needed to treat the disease. ‘It spreads quickly and kills within hours. This will be really worrying al-Qaeda.’

You get the complete package from the "good ol' days."
I’m shedding real tears for these poor guys.
More like living in caves with rats.

So now we know for sure that they’re playing with some pretty potent bio stuff???
I wonder how their recruiting is doing??
Divine intervention?
Man ought not get so arrogant with modern technology and modern medicine that we begin to believe that we've defeated disease.
This is a critical reason for closing up our borders, controlling the stem of immigration into our country, and reinstating health-checks before admittance.

That’s my question. Heard a radio host joking about these men dying. Seems possible that they were working with germ warfare.
The Japanese were at the end of WWII.
Hmmmm????
I think they just have fleas.
We have someone drop dead from this just about every year near me.

I think we already knew that for sure....
**So now we know for sure that they’re playing with some pretty potent bio stuff???**
one of my first thoughts.
Finally! Some good news!
At first, I was ready for heart-warming story, and a good laugh, of how raghead islamofacists were getting what they deserved. Then I saw your response - and I'm afraid you are 100% correct.
Give it 24 hrs and you’ll be hearing we did it to them via a CIA covert action. They aren’t gonna blame it on themselves. The Al Qaeda PR machine and CNN is working on it at this very moment.
You would think that death in this form would have some sort of religious significance for them....they have literally been sent a plague for their actions. Will they change or merely issue a rat fatwah?
