Alexis Debat Reports:
A senior official in the Somali government's new Ministry of the Interior told ABC News government forces had recovered "dozens of foreign passports," including several American passports, on the bodies of al Qaeda fighters killed in combat between forces affiliated with the Union of Islamic Courts (UIC) and Ethiopian forces in Somalia.
According to the same source, most of the foreign passports were Sudanese, Pakistani and Yemeni, but several American, British and Australian passports were also recovered.

Somalia Islamist Got Passport Ping..
Boy oh boy - every now and again - these kind of stories really worry the heck out of me.

Welcome to Somalia, Al Qaeda! Sorry your visit was so short.
Well I know one thing, these idiots won't be voting for the Democrats anymore. I take that back, now that they're dead, there almost certain to be voting in the coming elections, for RATs, of course.
Hopefully the paper trail will turn up all kinds of interesting things.
LOL! I guess they got off the Tour Bus at the wrong time! /s

Thanks for your comments. Glad there's a few of us here who know which thread we're on, and it "ain't" the bash Bush border thread. It's about just what it's about. Sorry, hijacker kiddies, I hear your mommies calling you to quit playing on the computer.
