#4 The region near Libya. Is that like a quarter of a hemisphere or something?

#5 A U.S. official would not provide details on the classified unit in the region but said it includes elite U.S. special operations commandos trained for counterterrorism missions, like the Navy's Seal Team Six, known formally as the Naval Special Warfare Development Group.

Good. Glad we're not revealing any details on this classified unit...

#9 That's OK, Sherry. I don't care if I don't hear about it, as long as the bad guys end up dead.

#10 If its THE bad boys we'll hear it on the 24 news cycle for weeks, as the peanut gallery gives a legacy to their chosen child. Ra-ra-ra. Secrecy, my eye. They'll have it carved in stone like Ramses II.

#11 C'mon, it WILL be the bad boys no matter who it is. Even if it's only a little girl, a goat and a toothless septugenarian it will BE the bad boys.

But, it will be vewey vewey secret.

Am I being too cynical?
