i was watching cnni last night just before hitting the sack... i had turned it on just for the heck of it and there it was, plastered all over the screen...

- BREAKING NEWS -

a breathless anchorwoman was talking about how a cia airstrike had supposedly nailed al-zawahri... i watched for less than a minute before switching it off, figuring that, this morning, i would probably find out it was yet another chunk of the endless baloney we're being fed and, son-of-a-gun... whaddaya know...

Pakistan on Saturday condemned a purported CIA airstrike on a border village that officials said unsuccessfully targeted al-Qaida's second-in-command, and said it was protesting to the U.S. Embassy over the attack that killed at least 17 people.

and, hard on the heels of my recent discovery that the cia's unmanned predator drones are being piloted by guys (gals?) sitting in la-z-boys somewhere in the nevada desert, i have to ask myself, was the guy/gal piloting the drone sitting up or reclining when the drone fired the missle...? just asking...

Citing unidentified American intelligence officials, U.S. news networks reported that CIA-operated Predator drone aircraft carried out the missile strike because al-Zawahri, Osama bin Laden's top lieutenant, was thought to be at a compound in the village or about to arrive.
