It's only a mystery to them

Apparently a suicide bomber was stopped at a Marine checkpoint in the Green Zone before he could detonate his bomb. Officials in Baghdad are for some reason expressing surprise that it could have happened.

A car bomber penetrated the heavily fortified Green Zone in the center of the capital on Tuesday but was stopped by U.S. Marines at an "internal checkpoint" before he was able to detonate the vehicle, the military said.

U.S. troops destroyed the explosive-rigged car and detained the bomber, a military spokesman said.

Although the breach did not result in any deaths or injuries, it raised alarm about how the bomber was able to enter the most secured compound in Iraq.

Yeah, they all love us sooo much over there that no Iraqi who ostensibly works for us would ever wish us any harm at all.

And in other news.

Meanwhile on Tuesday, U.S. and Iraqi officials announced that Iraqi and American security forces killed the No. 2 al Qaeda leader in Iraq, Abdallah Najim Abdallah Muhammad Juwari, also known as Abu Azzam.
Anyone have a count on how many times he's been killed off by the 1600 Crew and their puppets in Baghdad? Just wonderin'.

No, Jo, I think you're wrong. It's the #3 guy we've killed off 4 or 5 times. We've never killed off the #2 guy before.

Now, lemme see.... we got a #3 guy a month ago, so that made #4 into #3, but now he gets promoted because Abu Azzam is posing on the warporn page, and then #5 moves up to...

Umm....6....3....5..carry the 2....11...4...carry the 1...

Uhm.... lemme get back to ya on this, OK?

I think this is just the media or the pentagon or someone displaying a subtle sense of humor. See, it is always the #2 which any 4 or 5 year old can tell you means poop (and a lot of them can tell you it means shit). So clearly this is a message that you are about to read/hear something that is total shit (bullshit, horseshit, stupidshit, pure shit, take your choice.)

The lads over at Sadly, No! have an even better approach to the problem.

Seems Osama bin Forgotten has more deputies under his wing than Boss Hogg.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I read he'd been killed/captured again. You're shitting me, right?
