Senior Al Qaeda commander killed in Pakistan
Sat Dec 3, 2005 1:48 PM GMT

By Zeeshan Haider

ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - An al Qaeda commander ranked among the top five
in Osama bin Laden's network was killed in a tribal region of Pakistan
bordering Afghanistan, President Pervez Musharraf said on Saturday.

Abu Hamza Rabia, an Egyptian credited with heading al Qaeda's
international operations, was among five militants killed in an
explosion at a house where they were hiding in North Waziristan on
Thursday.

Let's see, we've killed the 2nd in command, third in command, fourth
in command, fifth in command al Qaeda leader what, 20 times each now?
Only 10,000 "Top 5" leaders left.



Harry, Harry, Harry. This really is a terrific story. Surely you
understand that when any of the top five are killed others then move up
to take their place. There will always be a top five until there are
no more leaders left to fill the ranks.

You understand that....eh?

There will always be a Top 5 because there will always be an al Qaeda
network, or a similar network by another name to succeed it.

You understand that...eh?

The almighty US military cannot defeat a large, well-financed,
multi-national, faith-based group like al Qaeda. All we are doing in
Iraq is providing advanced training for al Qaeda and for the insurgents
who want us out of there.

But, hey, if you want to volunteer up your son and if the rest of the
righties here want to volunteer up their sons to head over to Iraq and
fight in Bush's Folly, you don't need my permission or blessing.

Go for it.


What would you suggest, Oh Harry? Should we just roll over and bare
our stomachs?



Told ya...you and hte rest of the righties head over there, and take your
kids along, and be volunteers in Bush's Folly.

My suggestion? A realization that our "military solution" isn't working,



It's working fine. In fact, it's working so well that it's making the Dems
nervous that Bush is pulling the rug out from under them on the only issue
they have left to attack Bush on: Iraq.
