Please don't take this comment the wrong way. I'm praying for them as I type this. That said, this is going to knock the Swift Boat Vets out of the news. kerry must be cheering over this incident.
I doubt it. It's front page material for tomorrow, but the lack of facts are going to make the story fairly short with lots of filler material about Chechnya, etc. The only way this story gets much attention for long is if al-Qaida claims responsibility or prominent Americans were onboard.
IMHO it would not hurt for the Swiftvet story to take a breather. It is starting to sound repetitive and needs to be on the back burner for a while.
