#2 "the Shura can send Omar a question and get his answer within 24 hours

Kinda like a magic 8 ball. I hope a lot of questions come in on those mobile phones...

#3 Omar, how many countries will you lose, how many battles will you lose, and how many of your men will die before your followers decide you are a terrible General, planner, or battle commander?

#4 Only a few trusted assistants know where the fugitive leader is now, but “wherever he’s hidden, Omar is closer than ever to many of his followers,”

ISI safehouse in Quetta comes to mind!!!!

#5 I've always seen Blinky as like the Howard Hughes of Jihad. Batshit crazy, sitting naked up in his suite at the Quetta Hilton with the windows painted black, pissing in milk bottles, watching goat porn while his ISI handlers shoot him full of heroin. Then every once in awhile they have him sign a couple of communiques to keep the rubes signing up and the gravy train rolling.

#6 Perhaps he should have one of those golden eyes fitted .. would only add to his *cough* mysticism :)

#7 Pretty good timing, for the coming dreaded "Taliban Spring Offensive", eh?

And, whatadeal, they'll never notice he's a bad leader. It's that whole "Allan is in control, must want me to die" thingy in effect.

#9 If he sees his shadow does that mean 6 more weeks until the spring offensive?
