LOL, I guess if that’s where the crap went then he went out with a fertile imagination. He would need that to learn to appreciate those 72 Helen Thomases.

“Carlos the columnist “
By BBC Correspondent Peter Greste
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “To most of the Western world, Illich Ramirez Sanchez is Carlos the Jackal, the world’s most notorious terrorist who masterminded a bloody catalogue of murders, kidnappings and hijackings throughout the 1970s.
But now he has begun writing a column for a weekly newspaper, La Razon, in Venezuela, his home country.
And he has become a leftist hero to thousands of Venezuelans.
From the solitary confines of his French prison cell, where he is serving a life sentence for murder, Mr Sanchez offers his revolutionary thoughts each week in a column called La Bastilla, Spanish for the Bastille.”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Among the Jackal’s admirers is the Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez, who has admitted writing to him in prison.
President Chavez addressed Carlos as a distinguished compatriot and defended the letter by saying it showed human solidarity not political support.
A group of left-wing figures has also launched a solidarity committee as a rallying point for Carlos’s supporters.
They are unlikely to succeed in securing his freedom, but his articles are winning him sympathy amongst his countrymen.”
WOOT!
Ha! PROOF is was the Israelis! You can't be a real terrorist unless you blow up a few kids!< /sarc>
Yep, he’s really, really dead.
On a more somber note — the global jihad is still alive and well.
On a happier note: THE GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR is working quite well at the present time.
Seriously, I don’t know who (which agencies and/or individuals) sent Muginyah to his doom, but factualy, he’s dead and gone and that’s that.
News brief - quote:
Beirut braces for two major events the anniversary of the assassination of late PM Hariri and funeral for Hizbullah commander
Beirut security forces are on high alert today bracing for two major events. A rally marking the 3rd anniversary since the assassination of the former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri which will be led by his son, and the funeral of Hizbullah commander Imad Mugniyah which will take place in the Beirut Hizbullah stronghold suburb the Dahiya quarter.

“Israeli embassies instructed to raise alert level in wake of Mugniyah killing”
SNIPPET: “Security establishment fears Iran, Hizbullah will attempt to regain deterrence by launching major terror attacks against Israeli representative bodies abroad”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The Shin Bet security service has instructed all Israeli representative bodies abroad to raise their alert level in the wake of Tuesday’s assassination of senior Hizbullah military leader Imad Mugniyah in Damascus, which the Lebanese Shiite terror group said was carried out by Mossad agents.”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Israeli intelligence agencies will increase their efforts to gather information on possible plots to attack the country’s embassies and consulates worldwide. Additional representative bodies, such as El Al and Jewish Agency branches overseas have also been instructed to heighten their alert level.
The security establishment fears Iran and Hizbullah will attempt to reestablish their deterrence by carrying out major terror attacks against Israeli, Jewish and American institutions. Terror cells linked to Hizbullah and Iran have been dormant in recent years, and it is estimated that it would take some time to reactivate them.”

I'll remember that. With Qassam's blowing off daily, that sentence speaks volumes.
A Lebanese Sunni Muslim prays on the coffin of Hezbollah assassinated commander Imad Moughniyah during his funeral in Beirut's suburbs February 14, 2008.
Lebanon's Shi'ite Muslims pray near the coffin of assassinated commander Imad Moughniyah during his funeral in Beirut's suburbs February 14, 2008.
Mugnie's funeral is bringing those deeply-divided Sunni and Shiite sects together. Pigs are flying somewhere.
