Here’s to the SeALs and the CIA and everyone else who made yesterday's events possible. Although, as a friend of mine who’s involved in the world of black ops just texted me, “Unfortunately, don’t think this makes a tactical difference.”

Sadly, he’s probably correct.


But, on the brighter side, we now have one less asshole to kill.

*Since it was reported the folks involved were Navy SeALs who did the take-down, I thought I'd go with the traditional naval congratulations this morning. "B" and "Z" were the signal flags hoisted by ships to signal "well done."

The only way it could have been better is if they filmed it, and instead of a shot to the head they'd blown off his kneecaps and set him on fire, and he tried to run into his pool to put out the fire and it turns out the pool was empty of water but full of snakes and alligators, and then we can show that film every time someone thinks about blowing us up again. Because it's one thing to die a martyr, it's anther to die in a hilariously awful way that everyone can see.

god this is amazing.

Brando - As usual, a capital idea. To the pool I'd add the remnants of the gators' dinner from the evening before: pigs. That would make it extra-special classy.

firecracker - it is, isn't it? Just goes to show that no corner of Kamakazistan is safe...

The one thing I worry about is whether this guy will be more powerful being dead than alive. I worry he'll really become a hero and a martyr for some now and an even bigger backslash.

just another milestone, this is. but good lord, this one's satisfying as hell. i hope this helps the friend i lost on 9/11 rest a little easier, as well as give his family a little dose of closure. that's all we can hope for.

we can't undo it. but as one of my friends said, at least the bad man can't hurt us anymore.

To quote Mark Twain, "Ive never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with a great deal of satisfaction."

FoggyDew said...

Titania - I wondered about that too. But I still think it sets a good precedent, as Hillary said, it doesn't matter how long it takes, we will get you.

mags - No, no he can't.

JennA - You know, I've read many a Twain quote, but I've never heard that one. Love it! It will now be added to the repertoire.
