Looks like they're turning on themselves.

Good news.

Dead Muslims!!

Pelosi and her buddy, Fat Jack Murtha, aren’t going to be happy about this. Someone’s head is going to roll.

I agree. One less cockroach to deal with.

[metmom]

Works for me.

A Taliban faction leader who criticized the militant group's Pakistani head over attacks that killed civilians was fatally shot Tuesday, reportedly by one of his own guards.

Actually, if they had to take out some of each other, it could have been someone less civil than a man who would object to civilians being killed.

“was fatally shot Tuesday, reportedly by one of his own guards.”

CIA?

[farlander]

Apparently, having a shred of humanity is considered unseemly and unbecoming a committed terrorist. He just needed killin’.

[ChocChipCookie]

On that happy note, I think I’ll retire for the night.

[wardaddy]

actually the dead guy was more reasonable and was trying to stop that blue eyed long haired guy Meshud who had become a psycho..battling his own kinsmen

granted they are all pretty far off the reservation but Qari Zainuddin was trying to topple crazy Meshud. Meshud was carrying a 5M bounty on his long haired noggin.

i suspect dead guy had subtle US help....

here's some pics

Meshud..alive for now

Qari...very dead

Goodnight

” Taliban faction leader who criticized the militant group’s Pakistani head over attacks that killed civilians was fatally shot Tuesday”

Oh, darn. He was one of those “moderate” Taliban the Dear Leader was contacting to help bring a negotiated peace to the region. How sad. /SARC

[ScottinVA]

That pic of Mehsud. Sure, he’s a mohammedan scumbag, but he’d make a helluva pirate at Blackbeard Fest!

[b4its2late]

Kinda like drug dealers fighting over their turf.

[2ndClassCitizen]

It may have been that the civilians were Taliban fanatics. Who knows?

[metmom]

Actually, it should be *obviously*.

Too bad that the ones with a spark of humanity are the ones to go. To me that indicates that there’s hope for them.

[Bringbackthedraft]

Looks like they’re turning on themselves. .............................Nahhhh. Just an average day amongst the tribes.

[metmom]

That’s true. He could have been objecting to killing civilians who are proving ground support, as it were.

But in that case, if they knew that, you’d think they would have agreed.
