#1 Yeesh. Killing them by the score now! Don't forget to mention something about how coalition soldiers are running out of bullets or passing out from lack of sleep or something so we can attract more targets.

#2 Remember when Bill Roggio mentioned the emptying out of the talib training camps?

Now we know where the inmates went.

Note to friendly forces--Mole skin can help with those blisters on the trigger finger.

I'm sure most of our troops in Afghanistan (and in Iraq, too) have callouses, and don't rub blisters any more, NG.

#5 There are 1,500,000,000 muslims in the world, give or take a few.

Estimated 10% = 150,000,000. Let's say that on average 5% of them are young males, and 10% of those males want to be jihadis. That's 7.5 million, ballpart estimate.

times 4 divide by 3, round up times airfare and daily expenses divided by Saudi and Iranian oil revenues, minus the bribes ...

For a good while, I'm guessing.

#6 sorry, that original 10% is the extremists.
