Somehow it doesn't seem cost effective to use a multimillion dollar missile.
LOL, bigtime!
They are amazing, aren’t they, the prosecutorial forces in politically-correct fairyland?
What I think they’re engaging in is “selective application of the Rules of Engagement” and selective application of rules regarding collateral damage between fire/air support vs infantry/ground forces.

Did a U.S. Airstrike Get The Big Z?
Media reports describe another U.S. airstrike within Pakistan, targeting a home that was a suspected Taliban safe house with foreign fighters.
Bill Roggio notes, “One report indicates an “al Qaeda fugitive from Egypt” was among those killed, sparking rumors that Ayman al Zawahiri was the target of the strike.”
But before we break out the party hats, Roggio also notes, “several senior Egyptian members of al Qaeda are known to operate in Pakistan’s tribal areas. These include Abu Khabab al Masri, Abu Ubaidah al Masri, Abdul Rahman al Masri al Maghribi, and Sheikh Essa. Abu Khabab, Abu Ubaidah, and Maghribi were believed to have been killed in the January 2006 Damadola airstrike but the reports were false.”
Keep your fingers crossed.
UPDATE: Two interesting items from the Asia Times, if true. One, allegedly the Predator drone came from Peshawar Airfield, making this a joint Pakistan-NATO operation. Two, the building was allegedly a militant compound disguised as a madrassa.
Campaign angle in all this? Well, the Democrats have looked increasingly silly, and have taken flak from non-conservative, clear-eyed observers of the war in Iraq (like the Washington Post) for insisting that the war is lost, no matter how much progress is made on the ground in Iraq. Another key part of both Hillary and Obama’s playbooks is endlessly moaning, “we’ve forgotten the real war, we’re losing the war in Afghanistan, we’ve been distracted from al-Qaeda.” Democrats looked silly when they claimed the Iraq buildup was distracting from fighting al-Qaeda, just as the U.S. and Pakistan captured Khalid Sheik Mohammed.

Just a joke for those in Palm Beach County.
;) Hope for a balmy day!
ah, yes... now THAT gave me a nice warm fuzzy feeling inside to think that that little snot-nosed twerp might've been turned to 'splody-bits.
He hasn't turned up in the last month or so. Maybe it was true...
War is never cheap.
Abu Khabab, you've been served!
Last I heard he was still in jail. He’s got another 18yrs to go.
The thought of that traitor going to hell makes our weekend even nicer.
You know, I don’t even care if he goes to hell or not. I’ll let God sort that out.
I merely wanted for him to feel what it’s like, if only for a few microseconds, to suddenly fly in lots of directions at once.
It’s too bad that it probably didn’t hurt much. Maybe it did. But not for long.
Hopefully if he went to hell, he was aware of what happened and the bad choices he made in life.
Hope the intel source enjoys the well deserved reward for making the world a better place.
Maybe he could go to heaven anyway?
In my concept of heaven there’s a 24-hr shooting range with free ammunition, and live targets like Adam Gadahn. Since it’s heaven and nobody truly dies, he gets to start fresh again... every day, forever... :-)
Thanks, for your reply. I am speaking of a different Adam. This one converted to Islam and has been a propaganda minister with the Taliban and Al Qaeda. His last name is Gahdan or something similar. See post #40.
One man’s heaven is another’s hell!
