People who are disappointed in Bush or McCain will be furious at Hillary or Obama. I think some want that to energize the Republican party, but the harm Hillary or Obama could do isn’t worth it to fire up or base.

[TheThinker]

The Cigarette Smoking Man was my first guess.

Anybody remember "Green Helmet?

[John Robie]

Are you the first to make the connection? I think you got him.

[MestaMachine]

Made the connection when all the hubbub over “Green Helmet” was going on. Thought no one else noticed this. Been waiting since the Ba$tard was offed for someone else to make the ID. Guess no one else has yet.
Thanks for responding.

LOL, nice one.

...”This speaks volumes about why an Obama or a Hillary presidency is a threat to America and why we will need to support McCain even if he isn’t the best or most conservative conservative.”...

Exactly. Hillary Clinton, Barack Hussein Obama, and the democrat party pose a clear and present danger to us all.

[txhurl]

What are y’all two implying here?

[txhurl]

What do y’all make of this?

(besides a brooch, a plane, a hat etc)

During the Lebanon War, photos from AP showed this guy in several different locations. He seemed to be everywhere a camera was showing dead "innocent" civilians. Little Green Footballs and others were trying to figure out who this guy was and dubbed him "Green Helmet." In the meantime, at the closing stage of the war, Israel tried desperately to reach a specific target in Northern Lebanon. They took many casualties but Hezbollah, in surprising numbers, was almost insanely defending something that was obviously important to them, and turned the IDF back. So Israel had a target they could not reach, and trying to figure out what their target was, I compared all the "Green Helmet" photos to old photos of Mugniyah, and voila. They matched up pretty closely. So I saved them all. Now with this latest photo from Hezbollah, it's pretty clear that this was the same guy that was so arrogant he was in everybody's face all along. If I spotted him, it figures that Israel spotted him too and had, at least, a pretty good idea where he was after no one could find him for years. It's possible they kept a good bead on him since then and finally got their chance. Just a theory. Could be wrong, but it could be right. Just trying to see what anyone else might think.

Yes, I agree with everything you say - there are a ton of Green Helmet guy threads here on FR, tons of pics -
purportedly Mugniyah had multiple plastic surgeries.

I’m comparing pics, too.

If the Israeli's did it, I don't understand why they don't just stand up and say so.

Something like...

Heck ya, we killed him. And we are going to kill the rest of the leaders of that slimeball organization just as soon as we can. If you have a problem with that, you shouldn't have started killing Jews. We get nasty when people do that.

As far as I am concerned, that scumbag was about as legitimate a target as targets get.
