Mullah Mohammad Omar, the obscure, one-eyed zealot who led the Taliban from its beginnings as a band of student insurrectionists through a fateful alliance with Osama bin Laden, to military defeat following the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and the movement’s re-emergence as an insurgency that threatened the American occupation in Afghanistan, died more than two years ago in Pakistsan, according to Afghanistan’s intelligence agency and the office of Afghan President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani. The cause of death was unclear.

I'll believe it when they lower the flag flying over the White House.

May piss be upon him.

[BigEdLB]

To be fair he needs 72 one-eyed virgins.

• Fox reminds us there was a $10 million bounty on Mullah Omar's head. A later segment of this program spoke with an individual familiar with Mullah Omar's military status and stated that the

• Bengazi5/Bergdahl exchange (—Mohammad Fazl, Abdul Haq Wasiq, Mullah Norullah Nori, Khairullah Khairkhwa, Mohammed Nabi)...were Mullah Omar's top men ... one of these five is likely to replace Mullah Omar in command.

  Begs the question, was Obama was aware of the mullah's demise two years ago and was his demise the reason this administration was compelled to negotiate/cooperate in releasing Mullah Omar's 5 top men to fill Omar's void? Yet again, raising alarming questions about where this administration's loyalties lie.

This is good news. Lots of Freepers been keeping and eye out for him.

[wattsgnu]

I think ossama was ‘confirmed’ dead a few times before he was.

[Vigilanteman]

BO personally killed him and was just to modest to take credit.

[shankbear]

And didn’t we used to have the best intelligence system in the world??

[dfwgator]

Lots of Freepers been keeping and eye out for him.

But only one was really serious about it.

Put his head on a pike in front of the World Trade Towers.

And have city wide BBQ in honor of his death.

Welcome, Shaheed!

Your 72 Houris Await You!

It’s a bummer when American leadership wants Americans dead.

That is a symptom of socialism and Islam.

Both need to purge dissent.

BO personally killed him and was just to modest to take credit.

Ah yes, he piloted the chopper himself, did a HALO jump out of the cockpit, had a BFG in each hand firing .50cal hollow-point mercury-tipped tracer rounds, and ate a BLT while sitting on Omar's bleeding remains.

Wait, that last bit is out of character for him...

"BO personally killed him and was just to modest to take credit."

Yeah, here's the money line from the article...

"The cause of death was unclear."

0 will be steppin' up to the plate to claim this one and "clear it up" any minute now after that invite.

Gee, that's too bad. Where should we send flowers? (Sarcasm tag obviously unnecessary.)

The prophet was specific about the virgins. They will be “big breasted, dark eyed virgins.” One eyed, one legged types need not apply.

[RightGeek]

This is good news. Lots of Freepers been keeping and eye out for him.

Speaking of which - where is dead?

[Ghost of SVR4]

He;s somewhere around here, saw him post earlier today..

[dead]

I’m keeping the tagline until he’s officially morte. Then I have to think of a new one!

[smoothsailing]

Mullah Mohammad Omar,...died
