U.S. Strikes Al Qaeda In Somalia
Here's hoping that some of those "more wanted" fellas are now no longer wanted.
A U.S. Air Force gunship has conducted a strike against suspected members of al Qaeda in Somalia, CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports exclusively.
The targets included the senior al Qaeda leader in East Africa and an al Qaeda operative wanted for his involvement in the 1998 bombings of two American embassies in Africa, Martin reports. Those terror attacks killed more than 200 people.
Keeping my fingers crossed.
The AC-130 gunship is capable of firing thousands of rounds per second, and sources say a lot of bodies were seen on the ground after the strike, but there is as yet, no confirmation of the identities.
Well, someone's dead. Let's just hope it's the ones who deserve it.

Who exactly over there doesn't deserve it? If they ain't terrorists already then they were just in the transitional period between 'fucked up angry raghead with a gun' and 'full blown suicidal murdering fucked up angry raghead with a gun and a will to use it'.
Is that a little too non-PC for anyone?
