Well, I know that in June 2005 Al Qaeda leader Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi was killed when U.S. warplanes dropped bombs on the house where he was staying, and that U.S., British, and Pakistani intelligence authorities prevented a terrorist plot to simultaneously blow up as many as 10 jets leaving Britain for the U.S. in August of 2005.

Also on Jan. 9, 2009, the leader of Al Qaeda in Pakistan, Usama al-Kini, and one of his aides were killed in an American air-strike. Usama al-Kini and his aide Sheikh Ahmed Salim Swedan, both Kenyan nationals, were killed by a missile fired by a US Predator drone in Pakistan, in a Taliban stronghold close to the Afghan border.

On Sept. 5, 2007 it was reported that Coalition forces killed the al-Qaeda in Iraq emir of the Arab Jabour area, who managed all terrorist attacks in the area south of Baghdad.

Now I admit that George Bush wasn't nearly as bloodthirsty in the utilization of unmanned drones in targeting suspected terrorists in sovereign countries that we consider allies, as is Barack Obama. But then, unlike what they did with Pres. Bush, the media gives Obama a free pass to conduct military operations in violation of an allies airspace and in their civilian communities. So he does have a little tactical advantage there.

Where is Cindy Sheehan, anyway?
