U.S. Takes Sole Custody of Al Qaeda's Mohammed

"I have read several stories indicating he was arrested a month or so ago."

I've been thinking along these lines since yesterday, but I've seen no articles yet suggesting this. The speed at which it was announced, if it really happened Saturday is surprising. I would have thought that they'd listen to the chatter and follow the leads from the computer stuff before announcing his capture. It might have been interesting to answer his phone and emails for him while he was in custody.
Another thing, that sister of the Pakistani guy arrested insisted that he and his wife and kids were the only ones in the house when the raid took place. That may not have been far from the truth. He needed to be nabbed, and the raid might have been used to make it look like old Mohammad was just arrested.

I would speculate that the "orange" condition was about the time he was taken. Just a theoretical possibility.

Was he attempting a "western" disguise

Well, he got as far as starting to look like an Italian guy I know!

Isn't that the thing a Mohel uses?

I don't remember dorito man.

The stories I've read, there was just a blurb mentioned within the article suggesting this might have happened. Nothing solid yet.

Any sightings of the "Free Khalid Now"," Not in Our Name" ACLU-liberal-homo-media crowd?

If so, they'll qualify for a free 7.62mm head shot.

"I imagine there are a few ISI agents, Pak military men and Pak scientists who are really on edge right about now."

Yes, and a lot of other's too!

Heh. No. It's what I use for skinning deer and wild hog. I'm sure it would work well to peel this Islamofascist like a grape.

Isn't that a picture of John Holmes?

Why just 25mill for OBL and Mullah Omar? Make it $1bill. This guy was living the good life in a politician's home. If OBL and Omar are alive in Pakistan, just keep raising the bounty until someone coughs them up.

What an F---ing pig! An speaking of that, we can not line him up against a wall and shoot him... that is for military. This guy is slime and a common criminal.

He needs to be killed in the most debase way possible... after we have milked him for all the intel we can get.

I have read several stories indicating he was arrested a month or so ago.

I hope that we are smarter than to announce on the day that we get him that we got him.

In Vietnam a common way to encourage a prisoner to talk was to take 3 up in a helicopter and push one out then ask questions of the remaining two.

I like Sean Connery's trick in "The Untouchables". When the gangster they've just captured won't talk, Connery says, "then I'll see if the other one will", and goes out on the porch where there's the body of a gangster who was killed in the gun battle (unbeknownst to the first gangster). Sean leans the body against the window and slaps it around a bit, yelling, "talk, damn you, talk!" Then when there's no response (obviously), Connery takes out his gun, puts it in the corpse's mouth, and blows its brains all over the window. Then he marches back into the room and says to the gangster, "your turn to talk!"

Medically remove his arm and legs, blind him, rupture his ear drums and make him unable to utter a sound.

The very disturbing novel, "Johnny Got His Gun", is told from the perspective of a soldier left in this condition in a hospital bed after being blown up in battle.

"Johnny Got His Gun"

Did you see the equally disturbing movie?

Fine.
But would you really want to do the bikini line?

I prefer the burn treatment.
Question him.
Shoot him.
Burn him.
Feed the ashes to the hogs...
