There is a pretty remarkable video making the rounds today from a Predator unmanned plane loitering over the scene of three terrorists digging a large hole in a road in Iraq. When they have the hole completed, they drop in the artillery shells or whatever and begin to wire them up. Predator launches Hellfire, and three terrorists and their IED go up with a big bang.

Congrats to those Predator controllers wherever they are.

(I'm still looking for a link.)

I saw that and had a warm fuzzy feeling.

We should have more of those. Also as one of the key ellements to the nice Al Queda guys is to video all thier attacks and display them on the internet or Al Jazeera.... I'm all for showing high tech annialation of terrorists from afar. Maybe they'll figure some stuff out then.
