You thought maybe that a U S Navy carrier group JUST HAPPENED to be off the coast of Somalia, maybe doing search and rescue or tracking whales?

The Usual Media don’t know how to handle the collapse of the jihadis when the Ehtiopians attacked. It’s been fun to watch them squirm and squeal. Now they will blame everything on the US, scream about invented civilian deaths, etc etc

You know the drill: you can precited the headlines…

Good comment rmgraha. Death is fairly long term and not having Muslim terrorists work their mayhem ‘CAUSE THEY’RE DEAD will be extremely helpful.

We use to call it gunboat diplomacy. Now, let’s call it gunship diplomacy. Hoo-ah.

“Any incident of this kind is not helpful in the long term,” Amadeu Altafaj Tardio, a European commission spokesman, said.

On the contrary, there are very few long-term problems caused by dead terrorists — something the EU still hasn’t figured out yet.

It looks like the US airstrikes against a group of al Qaeda terrorists may have yielded good results for everyone. If it pans out, then watch for these names to appear in the news as confirmed as killed or captured…

British and Canadian passports have supposedly been found on the jihadis.

I can’t speak for the Canadians, but the British in general neither understand nor appreciate the concept of citizenship, thinking of it as nothing more than a passport (do not confuse this with a lack of patriotic or nationalistic feeling). I think that this has a large part to do with why the British Muslim population is so poorly assimilated compared to the American one (yes, I really mean that; the situation in America is much better): they may have paperwork that says they are British, but they wouldn’t have been made to consider it a big deal.

I was having dinner with a Brother a month ago and was telling him Somalia was where we were going next. It looks like it’s time to say we’re there … hopefully, much to al-Qaeda’s death and despair.

Wonder what the Dems will say…

So many of yesterday’s questions answered today: 1. What was with the bird deaths in Austin? Sepuku? Mass suicide? The delayed effects of some Bushitler environmental policy? An old roommate of mine posited that someone threw rice at a wedding……

Thank goodness the New York Times wasn’t tipped off…had they been, they would have reported it and screwed up the whole thing.

I was thinking the same thing as I read that article. The Treason Times must be kicking itself for letting the jihadi team down. All they can do now is write articles about how that convoy was actually composed entirely of blind, HIV-positive orphans under the age of 10, as reported by ace correspondent Jamil Hussein. (That guy is everywhere.)

CIA, Special Forces, and Marines Oh My!

Deputy Prime Minister Hussein Aideed told The Associated Press the U.S. had “our full support for the attacks.”

Well, of course he’d say that. He’s a Republican!

There’s Halliburton money in it for him, no doubt.
