Cartoons
posted in General |CARTOONS
Bin Laden and Zawahiri are still squirreled away in the remote mountains of Pakistan/Afghanistan. At least that is the common knowledge, and noboby else seems to have a better idea. Through their muderous legions, they continue to pester the Western Coalition of nations, but they have not gone away. In the last two years , we have made life much more difficult for Al Queda and have assuredly disrupted their operations and organization. They no longer enjoy the relative anonymity of prior years, and cannot safely plan and communicate with out detection. With limited resources, they cannot expect survive or win in the long run.
Al Queda badly needed a boost, and got it with the furor over the Muhammad cartoons that were published in a Danish newspaper — and it didn't cost Bin Laden a cent. Now, there are additional millions and millions of Muslims who are angrier than ever at the West. Now, all Bin Laden and Zawahiri have to do is point to the West and say, “See, we told you so! The Big Satans must be destroyed”.
Not much we can do about things like this, except to weather the storm. For sure, Al Queda will have a bigger supply of willing suicide bombers.Personally, I thought some of the cartoons were both clever and humorous. My favorite was the Voice from above saying, “Hey, guys, slow it down – we are running out of virgins!”
The cartoons are funny. A nuclear weapon sitting in Iran is not.
