CNN w/breaking news-Al Qaeda #2 killed?

[babylonsister]

Even if they got the guy they think they got, I'm sure that will shut down all the insurgents. :sarcasm:
I guess I don't get the point because nothing will change.

1. Hasn't this fool been killed like 10 times already?

I swear he has

[welshTerrier2]

3. he's been "mostly dead" all day ...

maybe they could take him to Miracle Max ...

have fun storming the castle boys ...

[babylonsister]

6. Apparently not "THIS" fool. They showed multiple clips

of a guy walking next to bin Laden, Zarkawhi? That's who supposedly died.
No, only number 3 has died 15 times! :spank:

[MadisonProgressive]

2. Is this the real #2?

[babylonsister]

8. That's what they're saying, FWIW.CNN even had

4 'experts' on.

[tularetom]

4. The next thing you know

they'll be telling us they were able to track him down because they had located him through a tapped telephone call to or from the US. These things just have a neat way of taking place at just the right time don't they?

[MadisonProgressive]

12. BINGO!

[mzmolly]

5. Again?!

:P

[Botany]

7. Great News!

But Which #2?

#2 in Iraq?
#2 in Central Iraq?
# 2 in North Central Iraq?
#2 in Europe?
#2 in England?
#2 in Baghdad?
#2 in Afghanistan?
#2 in Eastern Afghanistan?
#2 in Saudi Arabia?
#2 in Syria?
#2 in Buffalo N.Y.?
#2 in the Gaza?
#2 in Montreal waiting to come into the U.S. when bush's poll #s hit the teens?
#2 in Poland?

I wish they would quit putting bull shit on toast and telling us to "eat up it is country style apple butter."

9. I heard the dead from this attack will be quickly buried

so the identities may never be known.

(And this way, BushCo can claim he was likely killed when they're on the "we're making progress" track, but continue to scare people when they're on the "enemy still lurks" track.)

10. More Bush propaganda, timed to shift focus from Alito to Iraq.

They know all they have to do is run the rumor, and that sets a tone for the weekend news cycle. They didn't want anyone paying attention to the criticisms for Alito today by Michelson, Sullivan, and others.

[Neil Lisst]

13. Do you know the difference between AQ's number 2 and number 3?

There are only 27 number twos in AQ, but there are over 100 number threes.

Ok, I'm estimating, but it's based upon the "reports" by the administration the past 3 years. Every month they claim they might have "gotten" the number two or number three guy.

11. Pakistan: Cannot confirm U.S. targeted Al Qaida number 2 (Reuters)

From the Haaretz news crawler, a denial by Pakistan:

05:18 Pakistan: Cannot confirm U.S. targeted Al Qaida number 2 (Reuters)

14. Oops, we killed 100 people at a wedding party

Coulda swore that the #2 guy was there.... Oh well, ya win some, ya lose some...

[Nutmegger]

15. What's the difference???

We'll find the real number two next time...honest!!!

[Contrary1]

16. But, but, but...

if Bin Ladin is actually impotent these days (tired, sick, broke,) as the news has been portraying him...wouldn't #2 actually be #1? So it could have been the former #3 that was killed today, or maybe #4, who would have taken #3's position immediately after the former #3 was elevated to the #2 position, on the demise of the late #2. So, then who's on 1st?

Stay tuned...all this talk of #2, has affected me physically.

Do you think I could take a restroom break?

[Roland99]

17. Supposedly it was Zawahiri.

[nickinSTL]

18. yeah, how many times have I heard that before?

I swear, I've heard they've killed Al-Qaeda's #2 like, ten times.

And, I don't tend to follow MSM...how many times did I miss? :eyes:

[radfringe]

19. again....

how many times does this make it?

sigh...I'm kinda missing the old days were we just had the terra-lerts every other day
