Wasn't it Groucho Marx who commented that "
Military intelligence is contradiction in terms" ?!
Well, in spite of all their supposed 'intelligence', they certainly failed to spot or prevent the the Afghan President's brother having his brains blown out only two days ago, just as they also failed to spot or prevent the suicide attack this afternoon at his memorial service in a Kandahar mosque... which all goes to reinforce the our views on the 'intelligence' of 'black ops' !!
Btw, here's this afternoons METAR from Kandahar:
270/15 9999 SCT MORTARS, TEMPO 1912 ILR
(
new METAR code 'ILR' = 'Intermittent Light Rockets' )
