robotic aircraft carring missiles is cool..but terrible aiming is not.

Come on... he could have been in any one of the huts. What are we to do? Aim for the one that we thought he might be in 3 days earlier?
It wouldn't be the first time that the CIA did something like aim for a building that a target was in several days earlier. 😉

All jokes aside, it would be good to hear that he is dead.

 
And it's not just him. They are saying they might have hit five others (Al-Qaida) in the bombing too. It'll take a couple of days to ID them through DNA.

I'm not a military expert, but it sounds like it wasn't much better than cluster bombing the area. Hey, maybe one will hit him!

shens....I saw him on Battlefield 2 like 25 mins ago.

We keep killing him but he just respawns. I wish he'd just log off or have Allah perma-ban him.

That strafe jumping bastard needs to be banned!

Actually they said they don't know if they would be able to identify him. Sounds like they don't have any of his dna to compare it to.
 
I hope hes dead but then the problem too is that it makes him a martyr, and hes not the disgruntled young punk who will blow himself up on a bus.

really....They should download those aim bots from counter strike to help! 😉
 
"May have killed Zawahri"? You can file that headline away with all the "May have killed Zarqawi" headlines as well.

But that headline sounds a lot better than "Killed 30 men, women, and children".

You're right. Let's stick with the original.

You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

I'll bet you would never compare innocents of your own country who died to "breaking a few eggs."
