The Night Before Payback

strategypage.com

'Twas the night before Payback and all through the Land,
They're running like rabbits in Afghanistan,
Osama's been praying, he's down on his Knees,
He's hoping that Allah will hear all his Pleas.

He thought if he killed us that we'd fall and Shatter,
But all that he's done is just make us Madder.
We ain't yet forgotten our Marines in Beirut,
And we'll kick your butt, with one heavy Boot.

And yes we remember the USS Cole,
And the lives of our sailors that you bastards Stole.
You think you can rule us and cause us to Fear,
You'll soon get the answer if you live to Hear.

And we ain't forgotten your buddy Saddam,
And he ain't forgotten the sound of our Bombs.
You think that those mountains are somewhere to Hide.
They'll go down in history as the place where you Died.

Remember Khadhafi and his Line of Death?
He came very close to his final Breath.
So come out and prove it, that you are a Man,
Cause our boys are coming and they have a Plan.

They are our fathers and they are our Sons,
And they sure do carry some mighty big Guns.
They would have stayed home with children and Wives,
Till you bastards came here and took all these Lives.

Osama I wrote this especially for You,
For air mail delivery by B-52.
You soon will be hearing a thud and a whistle,
Old Glory is coming, attached to a Missile.

I will not be sorry to see your ass Go.
It's Red, White, and Blue that is running this Show.

KT, no, you're not the only one ... agreed that he's pond scum, but prior to 9/11 no one had accused him of being dumb pond scum. But now he's left this tape just lying around Kandahar; last month he left his 'how to make an atom bomb' instructions lying around Kabul (which, according to some posts I've read here on SI, included the famous parody originally published in the Journal of Irreproducible Results); and on the 11th, his men drove cars with 'I love Osama' bumper stickers to the airport.

I can't shake the feeling that someone's having someone on here.

Yes, I thought of the Hitler film, after he came out of that railroad car.

Happily, bin Laden's Panzers are broken down Russian junk.

What a weirdo.

In fact, the film is so weird that I can understand some people in the Mideast wanting to think it was staged. If it was staged, the CIA is awfully clever to have included all that footage of chanting around a piece of helicopter wreckage. That part made me think of the Indian Wars, which this is getting to resemble. Except Sitting Bull was nobler than UBL.

it was the first thing I thought of -- they said they had independent interpreters, but it all seems so darn convenient.
