#1 extreme prejudice. When they figure out the drummers have given way to 2-3 seconds notice of incoming, their attitude (as well as their forces) might soften

#2 â€œThese 24 people are martyrs and our entire Waziristan region is ready for jihad (holy war),”

Duuude, like, the jihad has been going on just over the border for nearly four years, and you're only now just getting ready? You boys are slooooow movers.

#7 "Allah will rain death down upon you all"

That and a buck won't even get me a cup of coffee. I think "Allah" is going to have to get in line. There are several real humans still looking to do that to me already.

#8 Pakistani officials said they were checking whether any territorial violation was committed by the US forces while hitting the suspected militants.

And if there was? What're y'all gonna do about it?

Talking with your imaginary friends from the Koran has addled your brains. Bring yourself back down to the reality-based community - heck, even smoking crack would be an improvement upon reading the Koran.

#14 Ever stop to think that all these fanatical worshippers of the moon god, Allan, are pissed because we infidels put our decadent American moon landers on their God 36 years ago, left our Christian footsteps all over his face, and left an American flag flying in his eye? What will they do when we put a military base there?

#15 So it appears that if Musharef cannot control Waziristan, we have discovered someone who can. Excellent. Seals do not die in vain, bless their souls.

#16 "Allah will rain death down upon you all"/

I find this endless seething and threatening absolutely fascinating. Muslims are dying all over the place, at the hands of their enemies as well as at the hands of other Muslims. While there are certainly successful attacks against innocent civilians, they have made no objective headway in jihad. none.

yet, they still recruit useful idiots and continue to threaten. as if something's gonna change.

Yeah, more people will die as a result of their inability to see facts for what they are. but allan ain't gonna make 'em victorious, by a long shot.

somebody dust off the cluebat, will ya?

#17 "Allah will rain death down upon you all"

I think you have that wrong. Its the C130's Gunships who are especially apt at delivering death from above in the form of 'steel rain'...

Allan can't even defend his own 'holy book'....

#19 Allah will rain death down upon you all

Odd, isn't it, how one moment they're whining about all the death being rained down on Muslims, then the next moment they're seething and declaring Allah will rain death on the rest of us.

Someday they'll connect the two thoughts and realize just who it is Allah's pissed at.

Mohammed was a liar.

#23 Mohammed was also a thief, a rapist, a pedophile and a murderer.

But hey, one billion Moslems think he was the greatest of all lads!

Can you imagine facing one billion Nazis thinking Hitler was the greatest of all people? or one billion Aztecs thinking very highly of Ahuitzotl? (who was claimed to have personally sacrificed more than 80,000 prisoners in four day).

#27 That really is a great photo, I wonder who was there to take the picture. Nice old sword, well used though. Such anger and rage this is a tough one. Or is it an archival pose of sorts.
I am so glad that we are stopping the craziness of them fighting us from the "santuary" of Pakistan. That needed to be stopped. The SEAL's (and those that have gone before)are smiling down on the soldiers that retaliated, thanks.
I hope that they did in fact get some of the higher up Al Qaeda types. (the spelling is tough too not just the language, I keep wanting to put Qu for Qaeda geez)

#30 Go ahead and BITCH, ya idjits: if you think victory is you killing one of ours while we kill 100 of yours, then your math skills have deteriorated since the glory days of Islamic Mathematics. Substitute Rials for warriors, and see how great a bargain it is if you give 100 to get back one.

#31 Sorry Half, a little innacurate there ;)

SSBN-726 Ohio class submarines

Excerpt:
24 Trident II D-5 missiles with up to 8 (I believe) MIRV thermonuclear warheads of yield up to 475kT (23 Hiroshimas). All 24 can be launched within one minute, and I think the US has 19 of these boats, so let's not get into a pissing contest about who is going to be raining death down onto who shall we Gleth?

#33 Thanks, Jan. Wonder what the Spembles have to say about Pakistani tribemen's bruhaha over the payback, heh. Too bad that the funeral swarm did not get a Predator Payback Package™. that would get turbans spinning. And send a real clear message.

Fun to crank up the sound on that one.
Any link out there that I can see it with?
