Sucks that we didn't get him but at least he was stupid enough to blow himself up with his own explosives.

I do hope this isn't another case of the death of a small fry being portrayed as a big deal. Pakistan and the US Administration have done that in the past. The death or capture of some third string terrorist is played up to be "A MAJOR BREAK THROUGH!!!!" in the war on terror. With luck this guy actually was someone important.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate. -

True, but it takes time to train new people for technical positions. Israel noticed a major drop off in terror attacks after they started killing key leaders and technical specialists (bomb makers, money men, the men promoting the ideology, etc...).Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

"He was very important in al Qaeda. He was maybe Number Three or Five," the minister told Reuters.
That doesn't sound very convincing. Three or five?Lime roots and treachery!

All they need is to advertise in the Baghdad Daily Bomber . Iraq's got many trained terrorists, heck they probably even offer post-graduate training. I'm sure that there are at least a few willing to travel.Originally posted by Oerdin

Re: Good news from the war on terror.
We have reports here which say it was a US operation using an armed predator drone to take him out (like once in Yemen), and Pakistan is denying it because they fear trouble with their homegrown fundis if US action within the country is tolerated.Originally posted by Oerdin

No a predator "unmanned plane" armed with missiles, but IIRC controlled by ground operators, so technically not a robot /pedant

So some kind of flying Terminator sought him out? That's high tech stuff.It's candy. Surely there are more important things the NAACP could be boycotting. If the candy were shaped like a burning cross or a black man made of regular chocolate being dragged behind a truck made of white chocolate I could understand the outrage and would share it. - DrosedarsComment

There are conflicting reports. The Pakistani government is saying these idiots blew themselves up in their own home while working with explosives while some conspiracy theorists are saying the evil US got them with a drone.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment
