Demonstrating a perhaps Hitlerian ability to avoid destruction even when in its close proximity. An update on this story. "Radical cleric is said to be alive after Yemen airstrikes," from AP, December 26 (thanks to all who sent this in):
Sana, Yemen - A U.S.-born radical cleric is alive after reports he may have been killed in a Yemeni airstrike against a suspected Al Qaeda hide-out, friends and relatives said Friday.The government said it targeted a meeting of high-level Al Qaeda operatives in Thursday's airstrike in the remote province of Shabwa. It claimed that at least 30 militants were killed, possibly including Anwar al Awlaki, a radical cleric who has been linked to the accused gunman in last month's attack at the Ft. Hood military base in Texas.
On Friday, a friend of the cleric, Abu Bakr al Awlaki, said he was not among those killed. He refused to say if the cleric was attending the meeting....
It seems the next order of business for our government is to locate Anwar al Awlaki and make his life more interesting or better, end it. It is obvious that he is deeply involved in the Fort Hood Massacre, as well as many other deadly incidents. It is not likely that he will surrender peacefully and that he is intent on taking many other innocents with him, therefore his death is the only reasonable objective.
The sooner, the better!
Who is this friend of Awlaki? Why is he walking about and talking so freely? Frankly, why has this person not been detained? Are you Yemeni security services serious about this situation?
I think it is a brother who claimed he was talking to him.
I am not sure until I see an actual video of someone whther they are dead or not.
The reports that come out of the Middle East or so unreliable.
This has happened too many times before. It's the "boy who cried wolf syndrome".
What a pity! Why can't they never do the job right? Hope, it'll work out next time.
Maybe that's the way Buraq Arafat Saddam Hussein Osama wanted the job done "right"... After all, according to his (and George W. Bush's) favorite verse from Mein Qurampf, the killing of a mahoundian (the only kind of "innocent" individual in mahoundian epistemology, since everyone else is "guilty" of rejecting mahound and its [not his] imaginary alter-ego allah) is like the killing of all dune-dwelling, child-molesting, genocide-committing, wife-beating, work-hating mahoundiankind... And I guess Buraq Hussein would have a problem with being responsible for something like that, wouldn't he?
Zombies prefer death over life...
You can't kill a zombie...They are already dead...The US government has determined that the enemy is this very small number of Islamic zombies, that they call Al-Qaeda, sometimes Taliban, no matter how many times they kill these guys, they keep popping back up...That's because they are zombies...The undead dead..The rest of the ummah is considered the 'Religion of Peace'...Incapable of doing anything violent or aggressive...and certainly not zombies...It's possible to go into detail as to just how a born Mahoundian grows up under the cloud of zombism, or how a convert is immediately infected
with it...There is only one way to cure an Islamic zombie of zombism...apostasy...There is no such thing as partial zombism...if one want's to restore his life, and rejoin the human race, he must jump out, you cannot ease out...
