Waterboarding experts have no work these days; drone attacks have eliminated their jobs. Romney, if elected, will reappoint them, just to get the job picture brighter. Yemenis may contribute to the Romney superfund.
Absolutely nothing wrong with 11 more dead al Qaida. Too bad it wasn't 11,000.
If you're keeping score at home, put another 792 virgins in the column marked "al Qaida Martyrs".
But by killing so many of them we are also losing out on any intel we could be getting from them had we captured and waterboarded them. So it's kind of a canundrum (if I spelled that right). Killing them humanely or keeping them alive for the extraction of information using any means necessary.
I wonder if it's considered torture if, after a drone attack, one or more of them take a long time to die. Such as surviving the initial hit but then taking 15-20 minutes to either bleed or burn to death. We should ask Nancy Pelosi or Leslie Stahl that question.
"Two suspected U.S. drone strikes killed 11 al Qaeda militants in southern Yemen on Saturday, Yemeni military officials said."
"There was no immediate word from the U.S. on whether Washington was behind Saturday's attacks."
Gee...."suspected"....."drone"......US involvement. I wonder how many other countries have drone operations in that area of the world? Or have drones for that matter? Who else could be "behind the attacks"? Why not name them, then? Heh.
"Suspected drone strikes kill al-Qaeda militants." Used to be "Drone strikes kill suspected al-Qaeda militants". Someday, we'll be reading, "Suspected war in Afghanistan..".

Obama sends More Al Qaeda leaders to Paradise.
And Americans can enjoy life without them
