Current Event: Another Big Hit To Al Qaeda


The 2nd in command of Al Qaeda, Al-Libi, was killed by a drone strike that also killed 15 other Al Qaeda members. He was one of only 2 real leaders left in the area. To read more go to: http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/05/world/asia/pakistan-drone-libi/index.html?hpt=hp_t1 .

While I, obviously, don't support terrorism, I think this whole ordeal has been elongated so much that it can't even really be called a "thing". After Osama's death we had won, they had no leadership left to speak of and really no way of threatening us, especially with the Department of Homeland Security working its heart out. While I agree that this is a victory for liberty, when we start pulling leaders out of a hat that no one has ever heard of it looks like the United States Government is some large child that hit all of his friends because one of them spat I his ice cream. This has become ridiculous. I thought we were pulling out of the Middle East, not making them more pissed and killing people that get their power from YouTube in countries with very little access to YouTube.
