#1 {does Snoopy dance}

According to the article I read, this guy has a real hardon for the US Navy, multiple plots against our ships. One of which failed because they put too much explosive into the boat and it sank. {Damn, there goes those laws of physics again!}

#3 From Straits Times a mere two months ago:
"Al-Nashiri is more of a mystery. A Saudi who is also known as Umar Mohammed al-Harazi and Abu Bilal al-Makki, he is considered a step below Mohammed in the Al-Qaeda hierarchy.

He seems to have a particular hatred for the US Navy and is suspected of involvement in plots on four naval targets in the past three years.

Al-Nashiri is believed to be a mastermind of the October 2000 bombing of the destroyer USS Cole, which was hit by a small boat full of explosives in Aden, Yemen.

US officials believe he was in Afghanistan when the war began last October. He is thought to have moved to Pakistan when the Taleban fell."

The bad part about pulling these jobs is that you've got to pop your pointy little head up to see what you're doing. Having somebody there with a mallet looks funny in a kiddy game, but it hurts when it actually hits your turban.

I'll be outside ululating for the next hour or so...
