Yahoo NewsSo, I take it al-Qaida members now wear uniforms. Because, if they are not, how the hell does an aircraft manage to identify people in civilian clothing as al-Qaida insurgents? Or, is it just getting to the point where they have guns, they are al-Qaida insurgents?
The aircraft observed about 25 al-Qaida insurgents carrying AK-47 assault rifles — one brandishing a rocket-propelled grenade — walking into a palm grove, the military said.
You know, I don't even want to know.
Look, I am not saying they killed innocent people. Far from it. I am just not too keen on naming people al-Qaida insurgents simply because they firing at American troops. If someone fires at our troops, they deserve a response. Shooting back, and killing them, is more then adequate. But labeling them al-Qaida insurgents without any true proof is a propaganda ploy, not appropriate for military press conferences.
