That sucks.

[happygrl]

Waiting for a reliable source.

Praying that it isn't true.

FYI

[laconic]

The Pak sources in the past have been full of bs and lies. Let's hope and pray that their credibility remains low, although I am frankly bothered that STRATFOR is the secondary source, which seems to give it some credence (hopefully NOT!).

[RightWhale]

If this is true it will on CNN any moment.

[Dialup Llama]

Stratfor is quoting a jihadist website? You have got to be kidding.

[harpseal]

Prayers this is not true and prayers for all the men and women on the line

[denydenydeny]

Somehow I doubt that Stratfor would have a big story like this long before CNN or Fox.

The Pakistani-jihadist press reports Americans being killed in Afghanistan pretty much on a daily basis.

[vbmoneyspender]

what's with the 'jihadunspun' name. Are they making fun of the jihadis or have the jihadis gone in for a kindler, gentler approach to killing infidels.

[RCW2001]

Google News indicates that this story is 8 hours old. I doubt this happened as we would have 'confirmation' by now.

[Grampa Dave]

Pray that this didn't happen and is typical of the bravo sierra that has come out from this so called source.

[Quilla]

Prayers this is not true and prayers for all the men and women on the line.

My sentiments exactly.

[LBGA]

Let's hope it isn't true. I just spoke with my son an hour ago, and although we can't talk about anything, I can always tell if something has gone wrong. He sounded fine. I would think all troops overseas would hear about this pretty quickly if it did happen.

[MattAMiller]

Jihadunspun is highly unreliable.

[Stavka2]

SF guys die often enough and it is not reported. Black ops units are easy to cover for, its when the main combat units start suffering casualties that things are hard to cover up. SF guys, like a fraternity brother of mine, die from "training accidents". He was a Navy Seal who fell out of a high story window during training in Central America. Funny, the family hired PI found out that his heli was shot down over the Nicaraguan border....end of story.

Stratfor a bad source ? I have had their news letter for quite a while Dave and they have always seemed on top of things for the most part. If ya get time FReep-mail me the bad on em. They are down here in Texas near Austin I believe.

Stay Safe !

[Grampa Dave]

I believe that they have reported a lot of killed GI's in the past year, that have not panned out.

If this story was true, ABCNNNCBS would be running this 24/7 as breaking news.

>what's with the 'jihadunspun' name. Are they making fun of the jihadis or have the jihadis gone in for a kindler, gentler approach to killing infidels.

As I recall its run by a leftie, american convert to islam who hosts jihadist materials.
