She is a graduate of MIT and Brandeis. A neuroscientist. She was captured last month, and immediately became a knee-jerk elite liberal cause célèbre, in line with the clueless Clooney/Obama foreign policy. OK, maybe she was the victim of an……

Doesn’t that sound a wee bit suspicious?

Reminds me of the dramatic Jessica Lynch fighting back story that turned out to be total BS.

I think you folks underestimate the 9mm. Probably 25% of the fatal gsws I investigated during the 5 years I worked for our state “Coroners” office involved the “9″. This included one where the fatal shot went through the sheet metal of an auto and struck the drive in the head.

as well as excerpts from the Anarchist’s Arsenal.”

Is this the same thing as the “Anarchist Cookbook” from the late 60′s? If so, I’m not impressed. Following most of those prescriptions in the book could leave you real short of breath in a flash.

She managed to get one and point it at one of the men, but gave a little terrorist soliloquy before pulling the trigger, giving one of the interpreters enough time to deflect the rifle and the shot while another interrogator shot her in the torso.

Evil Overlord List…

#6: I will not gloat over my enemies’ predicament before killing them.

#7: When I’ve captured my adversary and he says, “Look, before you kill me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?” I’ll say, “No.” and shoot him. No, on second thought I’ll shoot him then say “No.”

Doesn’t that sound a wee bit suspicious?

Bizarre, at the very least. Other details from the story:

According to the FBI and US Attorney, on July 18, “a party of United States personnel, including two FBI special agents, a United States Army Warrant Officer, a United States Army Captain, and United States military interpreters, arrived at the Afghan facility where Siddiqui was being held. The personnel entered a second floor meeting room — unaware that Siddiqui was being held there, unsecured, behind a curtain.” “The Warrant Officer took a seat and placed his United States Army M-4 rifle on the floor next to the curtain. Shortly after the meeting began, the Captain heard a woman yell from the curtain and, when he turned, saw Siddiqui holding the Warrant Officer’s rifle and pointing it directly at the Captain.”

Maybe they were just giving her enough rope to hang herself.

Not only will there not be an apology, I feel certain that they will run with the theory that we have had her for years. How do you prove someone was freely roaming around. I hope this store “tightens up” because right now it is sketchy. Ast to the first post, “little old lady as Rambo” from what I have read she is thirty-six. That kind of remark will bring much hate and discontent.

She got all monologue-y!

LOL. I loved this from “The Incredibles”.

Lucius: [Bob and Lucius are sitting in a parked car, reminiscing] So now I’m in deep trouble. I mean, one more jolt of this death ray and I’m an epitaph. Somehow I manage to find cover and what does Baron von Ruthless do?
Bob: [laughing] He starts monologuing.
Lucius: He starts monologuing! He starts like, this prepared speech about how *feeble* I am compared to him, how *inevitable* my defeat is, how *the world* *will soon* *be his*, yadda yadda yadda.
Bob: Yammering.
Lucius: Yammering! I mean, the guy has me on a platter and he won’t shut up!

I actually belonged to that farce for a year in my younger days, until it became obvious they were ignoring prisoners of religious and political conscious in order to focus an effort to free men that got caught having homosexual sex in countries that outlaw it. Agenda promoting con artists using the suffering of heroes to promote their liberal causes.

Two more and she gets out of Vietnam for free.

I’m guessing that you missed the decimal point to the left of the 9.

Well it does explain why she survived two shots to the torso. To the best of my knowledge I know of no fatalities involving .9mm rounds.

Yeah, the doctors don’t even bother removing those.

A .9mm???

Aren’t those normally used to kill cockroaches?

attempted to shoot another officer

What does that mean? Is she an officer or had she already shot an officer? Is this a translation form an overseas paper?
