The tone was mocking and brutal as the signals cut into local frequencies with jamming equipment. The words were aimed at the Taliban fighters below, huddled over radio sets.

This is my favorite part. I want to start hearing about them doing things like breaking into Taliban communication via walkie-talkie:

ffft... "Uh, yeah, hi, it's us, the Wrath of God again. Uh, listen, Abdulla, we thought you might want to say goodbye to your friends, because you've got five seconds to live... 4... 3... 2..."

As a missile impacts somewhere.

Believe it or not, the EC-130CE planes can (and do) do things like this. It's VERY heavy, specialized plateform and it's distinguished from all other 130's by it's "X" pattern vertical, the "X" is actually large antennas (amoung many hanging all over the aircraft). As an example, one was participating in the BrightStar exercise in Egypt when I was there, and as I sat at home drinking beer, ALL the Egyption television stations simultaneously started showing Mickey Mouse cartoons. It was great!
