Afghanistan Rumor

A source is telling me that there will be some major news out of Afghanistan in the next few weeks. I wonder what I possibly could be implying?

These rumors have been wrong in the past. Call it wishful thinking. The source, though, is taking this all rather seriously. Not his usual MO.

1 Maybe the Afghan males have stopped fornicating with sheep. That would be pretty big news, let me tell you.

9 I want pictures of OBL humping the camel. I need those for my collector's set. Not so much the little boy though... you would think OBL to be more discrete.

10 Actually the news (when offered) out of Afghanistan has been very good for some time. The spring/summer offensive launched by the enemy failed big time with heavy enemy causlties. The only media news covered during that period was the helio shootdown and Seal Team loss - again, media coverage and fascination with these items totally devoid of context with the wider battles. Anyway, a failed major offensive by the enemy tends to bring lots of captured prisoners, materials, documents and other great intel our way. Add to that, the enemy has to move its OPs,CPs, and other set-ups since they can and will have been compromised. An enemy advancing to the rear is an excellent target.

12 I'm hoping they have a body that think is Binny, Zawahiri or Omar and are awaiting DNA tests to confirm. Doubt it though. I thought it was interesting that the LA times article (linked to in Jawa) regarding a raid in Kandahar involved troops that were parachuted in. That is not done often. Perhaps a big target. We can only hope.

13 there was also some rumor floating around that some biggies were killed in that raid, but mention of the possibility has since disappeared......

14 Bin Laden's camel killed 5-1

15 Might explain why Ayman al Zawahiri has been doing all the tapes.

16 The suspense is killing me. LawHawk, I'll take - OBL caught humping Mullah Omar.

19 Bin Laden and Tammy Imre (see below) and an eight year old boy? Video of Osama dynamiting the Ponchartrain levees? Mash note from Qusay to Obie, offering to let him crash in Iraq until the heat's off? Video of CIA operative secretly replacing Obie's dialysis filter with dark, sparkling Folger's crystals? Compromising photo of Mullah Omar and Iran's new Prime Minister dancing the funky chicken at a terrorist training camp in the late 80's? George Galloway's mustache hairs identified by DNA, embedded in the hiney of OBL's charred corpse? Hillary! fundraising letter addressed to Bashar Assad? Discovery of Zarqawi's cache of exotic bukkake porn? Tell us, Rusty! We'll keep it between ourselves and Google News.

21 Mullah Omar has taken to pronouncing "Mullah" as W does "Mooolaaaah". That is the news.

23 Osama bin Laden has farty pants: 1-1

Posted by: Leopold Stotch at September 07, 2005 07:59 PM (NIp8w)

24 I'll wager a four drachma gourd and a fake beard that Osama was turned in by a Brazilian plastic surgeon after having had a sex change and boob job, and they're just waiting for the bandages to come off. And that he wants to be called Loretta. Because he wants to have babies. Because it's symbolic of his stuggle against oppression. And he wants Pilate, uh, Bush, to wewease Wodewick. Because he has spiwit. You know, spiwit; bwavado; a touch of dewwing do.
