Al-Qaeda chief dies in missile air strike
 Advertisements [?]http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/jun/01/alqaida.pak...

Jason Burke The Observer, Sunday June 1 2008

An al-Qaeda trainer and explosives specialist involved in a range of European terrorist networks has been killed in Pakistan, the latest senior militant to die in a spate of controversial American missile strikes.

The death two weeks ago of Abu Suleiman al-Jazairi, a highly experienced Algerian militant, has been confirmed only in the last few days, intelligence sources in Pakistan and Western Europe told The Observer. Al-Jazairi, thought to have been 45, died along with at least 15 others when the house in which he was staying in Pakistan's Bajaur tribal district was hit by a missile fired from a Predator, an American pilotless drone.

Details are only now emerging about the strike on Damadola, a village near the Afghan-Pakistan border hit twice in the past. The house targeted and destroyed by the drone is believed to belong to a former Afghan Taliban defence minister, Maulvi Obaidullah, members of whose family, including women and children, are thought to have died. The surrounding area is in the hands of militants linked to the Pakistan Taliban militant group who have been blamed for the killing of Benazir Bhutto last year.

The death of al-Jazairi, thought to have been director of external operations for al-Qaeda and thus responsible for running the terrorist group's European and British networks, was cited by CIA chief Michael Hayden last week as one of the reasons for the 'strategic defeat' of al-Qaeda. Another top militant, Abu Laith al-Libi, was killed in February.

'The ability to kill and capture key members of al-Qaeda continues, and keeps them off balance - even in their best safe haven along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border,' Hayden said. Hayden added that al-Qaeda had been defeated in Saudi Arabia, was losing the battle for hearts and minds in the Islamic world and was now unable to exploit the Iraq war to draw in new recruits.

Of course, what do the DUmmies do?

1. The bombing of families is barbaric. nt


I happen to agree. AQ needs to stop targeting civilians. (but I don't think that is what you are talking about)

2. With all those "chiefs" is there any room for the "indians"?
 How can you run an organization that consists only of management types?


Once again, the DUmmies fail to understand: They get someone in charge. We kill them. They put someone else in charge.

Oh but we do kill the "indians". They're those brave Freedom Fightersâ„¢ whom you mourn so after hearing of each one's demise.

In order to teach DUmmies you have to start out with something more basic, like "inhale - exhale, inhale - exhale, repeat."

It is sad that our society is at a point where DUchebags are still allowed to live with the civilized people.

Exactly. If I were killed as an NCO, someone would take my place. If you were killed, someone would take your place. If General Petreaus were killed, again, someone would take his place. It's been this way since the beginning of time with every civilization, every Army, every Navy, and every entity on the face of the planet. What, they think we kill one and it's over? This is why those ****ing MORONS don't understand it's NOT just about getting Bin Laden. He gets killed, the Muzzies start firing off rounds into the air, parading pics of the douchebag, and promote someone else. Der Der Der.  :whatever:

I'll explain it in terms you can easily understand, DUmbass:  When the fry guy gets fired for stealing pickles from the walk in reefer, you get promoted from scrubbing the toilets and everyone in your family pats you on the head for your step up on the corporate ladder.

Clear now?

Actually, to more clearly put it in terms the DUmmies can understand:

When your corner drug dealer gets busted for selling weed on the corner, it doesn't mean you can't get weed anymore.  You can either 1--find someone to replace him (after all, you **ARE** the demand) or go to your local cannibis club right next door to the place you cash your welfare checks.
