Car explosion kill 6 alleged al-Qaida members

NBC, MSNBC AND NEWS SERVICES

SAN'A, Yemen, Nov. 4 — Six al-Qaida suspects were killed Monday when the car they were traveling in blew up in northwest Yemen in an area where authorities believe the terror group is active, Yemeni security officials said. They included a suspect in the al-Qaida linked attack two years ago on the U.S. warship in a Yemeni port.

"I'm waiting for some Watermelon Green Jihadist enviralists to complain about the blackened sand where the car used to be."

OOOH, and the poor little blades of grass, and the poor little stunted bushes...after all, grass and stunted bushes are people too!

[cyberaxe]

.....kinda brings back back memories of that old 70 commercial.....

.....the one where there are a bunch of roaches huddled together.....

.....one of them says.....

....."RAID!?!?!".....

.....Ka-Blam.....

Like a famous scene from this movie, the guys and gals sitting back at their console monitors today must have watched the live video and said at the exact moment of impact, in unison, "Boom!"

:-)

It's Miller Time in the suburbs of D.C. tonight.

This one was for the little girl (and many little girls) who lost their daddies in the North or South Tower last year.

Imagine a few dozen of these loitering over your village, cave, or terrorist training camp. Imagine one of them being the REAL hell-fire-loaded and the rest being dummies and decoys for the RPGs to take pot shots at. Imagine them getting smaller, faster, cheaper with every update in computing and sensing technology. Imagine a few hundred being netowrked into a "beowolf cluster" of sencing technology and firepower delivery systems.

Thank you George W. Bush !

[Grampa Dave]

Or the roach motel ads. They check in but never check out!

[Grampa Dave]

You are so insensitive. You forgot about the poor endangered sand fleas that got incinerated thanks to the evil GW.

The next thing you will tell us is that your husband kills innocent trees to make a living and that you eat meat at least once a day.

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks for more of the good news.

[El Gato]

Our Jihad to remove the Islamofascist and Islamakazi cancers from our planet have started. This is just the beginining!

I sincerely hope so. However remember that their are two sides in this war, and the other side is the type to leap and scream after events such as this. Expect the suicide bombings in the US to resume as soon as the Al Qaida can get the word out to their sleeper cells.

IOW, make sure your guns are sighted in, and keep your powder dry.

Nighty Night and Pleasant Dreams, Little Terrorist Towelheaded Ones!

[Grampa Dave]

That's right!

GW told a group of senators that he was not going to waste a multi million $ cruise missile to blow an empty and used REI tent in the desert and blow up some poor camel's clymer.

One of the senators was the Hilldebeast, the WINO of the Clintoon, who fired multi million $ missiles into the desert and only hit an Aspirin factory!

Hehe... I read that book - William Johnstone, "Breakdown', I believe... good book ;0)

What great news with no down side for our side in this reply of yours:

Imagine a few dozen of these loitering over your village, cave, or terrorist training camp. Imagine one of them being the REAL hell-fire-loaded and the rest being dummies and decoys for the RPGs to take pot shots at. Imagine them getting smaller, faster, cheaper with every update in computing and sensing technology. Imagine a few hundred being networked into a "beowolf cluster" of sencing technology and firepower delivery systems.

The Predators with their Hellfires would create a hell on earth for the Islamofascists and their mental defects, their Islamakazis.

Al Gore invented the Taliban

Why bother with dummies? Hell-Fires aren't that expensive and you might as well have all your assets loaded for bear. Besides these babies operate well out of RPG range, they can operate outside of the Stinger's envelope too, although that would also be a long shot for them.

[El Gato]

IOW, make sure your guns are sighted in

Of course I meant your rifles. If you have anything large enough to be considered a gun, such a howitzer, then make sure it's calibrated and the powder for it is dry.

The official told Reuters in Washington that a Central Intelligence Agency drone carried out Sunday's attack on a car carrying the six which Yemen said included one of two key suspects sought as leading al Qaeda operatives in the Arab country. The dead man, Qaed Senyan al-Harthi, also known as Abu Ali, was suspected of involvement in the 2000 suicide bombing of the U.S. warship Cole in a Yemeni port that killed 17 U.S. sailors.

Washington blames that blast in Aden and the September 11 attacks in the United States on the Saudi-born bin Laden, whose ancestral home is Yemen.

Payback is a Bitch, is it Not?

[TheExploited]

A Hillary Bobble-Head Doll was also destroyed in the missle attack. Way to go.

[Joe Hadenuf]

A missile fired by an unmanned CIA drone hit a car believed to be carrying suspected al Qaeda members in Yemen Sunday and killed several occupants, a U.S. official said Monday.

Bet the rent, the drone got excellent video of this. Let's see the video!

[Pitchfork]

Perhaps someone can explain to me why this isn't a contravention of the current policy against assassination? If you use a 6 foot long 100lb hellfire missle--and risk local civilians who fortunately were not harmed in this attack--that's a legal war action but if you use a sniper rifle that somehow distasteful? What a load of...

We could save tens of thousands of lives if we put a dozen or so CIA assassins in Iraq right now to effect 'regime change'. I've repeatedly come out against a war on this forum but I'd certainly support taking out Saddam while avoiding US and Iraqi civilian casualties.
