How will the MSM spin this as a bad thing, if they cover it at all?
Well done, gents!

In June, a man claiming to be Osmani — his face was concealed by a black turban — gave an interview to a Pakistani television network in which he said Omar and bin Laden were alive and well. He claimed to be receiving instructions from Omar.
Yep, get that mug out there Hollywood - no such thing as bad press right?
Merry Christmas bitch.

FWIW BZ is Navy slang for "job well done" or "s**t hot". Don't feel bad, I had to have it explained to me by a former Ambassador. ;) Peregrino

"Identifying remains was difficult, Collins said, because of the damage inflicted by the airstrike. "The vehicle was completely destroyed, there was nothing to recognize," he said"
Good deal. Hope he's licking a hot frying pan in Hell right now.
Because nothing says "Merry Christmas USA" better than an extra crispy POS.
Good job.
Merry Christmas bitch.

The National Guard ODA referred to as Beast 85 had captured Mullah Osmani over two years ago, as detailed in the book Hunting Al-Qaeda. Here's an excerpt, 'Mullah Ahktar Mohammed Osmani was detained for two weeks in Bagram, then transferred to an Afghan prison. Several weeks later he was delivered to Quetta, Pakistan, by corrupt local officals for 250,000 in cash. Once in Pakistan, he again took his place as a leader of the Taliban to continue the fight against coalition forces.'

Afghan Air Strike Irks U.S. Soldiers
2nd chance for top Taliban cited
By Rowan Scarborough, Washington Times
Special-operations soldiers say that if the command in Afghanistan had listened to them four years ago, there would have been no need this month for a U.S. air strike that killed senior Taliban leader Mullah Akhtar Mohammed Osmani.
He already would have been locked up.
As reported in 2002 by The Washington Times, an Army Green Beret "A Team" said it captured Osmani in a village near Kandahar, the Taliban's birthplace.

And the DIA tries to weasel out of it, again. "If we had him, he'd still be in custody..." I'll trust my SF brothers, they had him, and he was let go.
