"Seems that in this war on bad guys, we, the US taxpayer, have had to pay everyone off..."

So f'ing what?

Hey man, why the hostility? If it takes money, it takes money, I'm down with that. Whatever it takes as far as I am concerned. Its just too bad that the world seems full of whores, it would be nice to have more allies like the British and the Aussies..

Supposedly some people are ideologues first and foremost, and Americans only last. They will only be satisfied if the WTC insurance companies pay for everything, and if they can't then we're told we'll all have to just lump it.

Abu Zubaydah (arrested earlier) when he was in charge of Al-Qaeda military operations (which he took over after Mohammed Atef was KILLED in Afghanistan by US Air Forces) - stated last year that Sheik Kahlid Mohammed was in charge of FINANCING the terrorists in the 9/11 attacks. Hmmm...

I think its about time we had ourselves a good old-fashioned american bonfire, with Sheik Kahlid Mohammed as the guest of honor.

What say ye?

He turned himself in. Because, according to the antiwars, there is no way in the world that missions on several fronts could not be taking place. It is either Iraq or it is bin Laden and gang, but it cannot be both.

The FBI participated with the Pakistani ISI intelligence agents - with the capture of this guy.

There was a $25M bounty on Sheik Kahlid Mohammed's head...right now I'd say that is a good bargaining chip on our side as far as Pakistan giving us this lousy SOB.

Money talks.

I am NOT thinking warm fuzzy thoughts about what I'd like to do to this "man".

It involves an 18volt Dewalt power drill and rock salt.

Were they woefully late in modifying their past support of terrorism and radicalism (and are they still dragging their feet wrt Kurdistan)? Certainly. But let's not shiite on what they have done...

When I asked how much this cost, I had hoped to be around to explain, but got called away. I have no problem with any financial price, but I hope that Pakistan is not taking our money and breeding a new generation of rats.

Wonder how many U.S. taxpayer dollars this cost.

How much would it cost us if we hadn't caught him? The inaction after the original WTC bombing (ten years ago this week) and the simultaneous American embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania have already cost us dearly.

Perhaps we should stab him with 3,000 needles when he receives his lethal injection.
