1. Bad outcome if that's the purpose of the attacks.
It just reminds everyone about the mindless wars we're in and how brainless people can only resort to violence rather than use their diplomatic talents.

5. Yes, but Obama specifically said that it would only be for someone "high level" from
al Quaeda. This bombing is said to have killed "a mid level" leader.

IMNSHO, it is UNSAT (WRONG) to bomb and kill dozens of civilians to get a *MID LEVEL* militant. :thumbsdown:

The BushBotBorg is stirring up shit ... they're begging for a military confrontation. :grr: :nuke:
