I hope this is part of Bush's plan to "drive the terrorsts from place to place, to them one against the other"......

Let us hope....

Maybe the dried bean business is more competitive than one ever thought.

"to TURN them one against the other"

[Larry381]

Possible bad reaction to eating too many beans before prayers?

[dennisw]

How much money can there be in selling beans? I think garbanzos and lentils are eaten a lot over there.

A previously unknown group calling itself Youth of the Armed Struggle claimed responsibility for the attack

Yeah, a bunch of YOUTH carried out a car bombing assassination. I believe that. </sarcasm>

Go Israel! (or whoever killed this guy)!

[Leisler]

I was just kidding.

I have read of such things in the National Enquirer, although the New York Times, as usual, won't cover such breaking stories.

One more Mohammed al-Mohammed el-Mohammed Mohammed iced -- great. Ice all these boy buggering, woman hating, infidel killing terrorists.

Great news. I believe this slime was one of the top AQ people on our hit list (the names match). I've updated the AQ leader scoreboard with his death. Click here to see the list.

[mikegi]

Are these photos of the same man?

The one on the left is "Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah" aka "Abu Mohamed Al-Masri", and the right is "Abu Mohammed Al-Masri" who was killed today in Lebanon.

[csvset]

It sure could be, the alias matches and he's (they?) are Egyptian.
