The lower one looks exactly like rage-boy. Notice how physically repulsive these monsters are. They also look drugged, and without a doubt brainwashed.

"There is almost nothing left of (al Qaeda in Iraq)."

You were right all along. I was slow to believe you.

Does it include how to make use of frantic mothers of children AQ has just murdered?

How to fabricate photo ops to AQs benefit?

How to make AQ soldiers out be civilians?

My niece’s husband deployed to Kuwait in late September. He is over 40 men who escort convoys throughout Iraq. He is still waiting to see his first action in the war. We, of course, are praying he sees no action.

You jest, but I would not be surprised if one day we do find some direct subversion from Senatorial staff.

There is no doubt. Yon and others have reported that while they are imposing strict moral laws on the general populace with penalty of beheading if caught, al Qaeda is notorious for their drug use, their employ of prostitutes, etc.

Excellent to hear. In the meanwhile I and others are targeting the terrorist websites and forums that carry Al Furqan terrorist propaganda and violent terrorist materials.

The video editor and graphics technician are the lowest ranking and most easily replaceable members of the media cells, according to Nick Grace, the host of Global Crisis Watch and an expert on al Qaeda's media operations in an interview with The Long War Journal... Grace also noted the effort al Qaeda put into its propaganda programs, and likened the city cells to local television news stations subordinate to US television networks.
...not unlike the way that US television news is subordinate to al Qaeda's media cells. Thanks T4B!

Very cool! And, a very nice photo. Thanks for all your hard work, Mr. Concerned Citizen!

You know, one thing I have been thinking of that you might view as a corollary to your efforts in defeating al Qaeda by shutting down their websites, is to give an Internet voice to the muslim villagers who have endured such evil at the hands of al Qaeda in Iraq. Not just provide a blog and a digital camera, but also a PR hand so that the masses of muslims across the world understand precisely what living with al Qaeda would be like. To me, one of the most strategic things that has been accomplished is the hundreds of thousands of angry muslims, both Sunni and Shia, who will be witnesses to their muslim brethren both to the unspeakable evil of al Qaeda and the breathtaking goodness and justice of the American soldier. The source material is there, I am sure there are willing witnesses (many of them are over the intimidation at this point), what is lacking is the well-oiled machine to give them an electronic voice and an ability to promote it.

It is merely a seed or germ of an idea, and you may think of several inherent flaws in the idea, but I offer it up so that perhaps you or others might give more context and substance to it. Perhaps it will become one that will give us another positive thing to do (in addition to yours) that may contribute to liberty and humanity in this long war with muslim extremism.
