5 Senior Taliban Die of Loneliness and Explosive Force, But Mostly Explosive Force
That big airstrike yesterday of the Taliban "graduation ceremony" seems to have graduated quite a few Taliban to hell. Some claim up to 100 Taliban killed in all.
The jihadis are pushing a high number of civilians killed -- the number 300 is being put out there aggressively -- but other estimates are less, what's the word, insane.
Quite frankly I don't really believe there's such a thing as a "civilian" attending a Taliban graduation ceremony anyway. If you were there and proudly cheering the Taliban "graduates," the world will not miss you.
Here's a fact I wouldnt't have guessed: The commencement speaker at the Taliban graduation ceremony turns out to have been NBC sports commentator Bob Costas. Not really very impressive, but a nice get for the Taliban, you have to admit.
US Air Force Calls Bullshit On High Civilian Casualties: There were only about 150 people present in total, so how the hell could it even be possible that there are 200 or 300 civilian dead that some in our Scrupulously Fact-Checking Media are pushing? US says 10 civilians.
In an effort to no longer be "Bush's Stenographers," they've decided to become... "Al Zawahiri's Stenographers."
Guys, maybe the problem is the "stenographer" part, not who you're taking dictation from.
