Oh my god I hope the tiny pilot is OK. I hope they don't smurf his head off.

Oh! the Humanity!
I can barely look at all the broken G.I Joe's laying around dying at the feet of the mighty
Mujahadeen.

Note there is no damage to the tiny plane except there is some duct tape holding the wings on which probably come off on landing anyway so they don't break. I think it ran out of fuel or charge and just got picked up.

I guess they got tired of looking in awe at the glass Coca-Cola bottle that used to sit on that pedestal.

Is this part of the terrorists' shock and awe campaign? Because I'm in shock at how lame and awful they are.
Does making fun of terrorists count as making headway on the war on terror?

That aircrsft looks much more like a UAV. Are you sure your arabic translation? It is more likely mechanical failure than a shootdown.

Yeah it looks like a UAV. I guess liberals will be disappointed that a pilot wasn't killed or captured.

They "shot" it down? Where's the damage from what ever they shot it with or from the, surely, "crash" landing?
Here it is to scale
In other news, the Islamofascists have finally developed, after decades of research and development,
their own version of the UAV.

No, it's a UAV. They do claim they shot it down. But, that's kind of the whole point of the post.......

When I was a kid, I'd put firecrackers on my model planes, maybe that's what they're doing.

Can't you all see, this war orchestrated by KKKarl Rove is not worth all this loss of plastic and metal! Pounds and pounds of government products that could have supported the leeves in NO. Bush and Company are the biggest murderers blah blah blah...

Rusty, you should have titled your piece, "Terrorists shoot down model airplane, or maybe they went to Wal-Mart and bought one". Because this ain't no airplane.
