#1 The letter describes how al-Zawahiri was in "severe pain" and said that his "injuries are infected".

Doesn't necessarily mean it was a missile. Could just be the aftermath of his last encounter with a goat.

#2 Could just be the aftermath of his last encounter with a goat.

It'd probably be less dangerous if he used the back end of the goat instead.

Oh yeah, and pray for sepsis.

#3 May he lay in his death bed for six months and a day. In searing pain.

#4 There will be ~~golden opportunities~~ funerals for these fallen heros. Honor guards will line the streets, wart hogs will fly over raining Allan's blessings upon them. We'll all meet at the snackbar later.

#5 "death bed for six months and a day. In searing pain."

...or as a shriveled opium addict, whose only concern is his next fix.

#6 President George Bush is believed to have ordered a new drive to kill or capture al-Qaeda members before he leaves office.

Like the way "W" is thinking. If McCain becomes President, he will most likely bring the job to completion. If BO gets to be President, I don't think we can count on the job being finished.
