(2007-03-15) — Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, today answered skeptics who doubt that he could have planned the 31 terror plots to which he confessed this week.
“Why these doubts,” said Mr. Sheikh Mohammed. “Terrorism is so easy, even a caveman could do it.”
The hirsute al Qaeda lieutenant also said he was humbled by the way journalists always refer to him as a “mastermind”.
“If I build skyscraper or design jet plane, that make Khalid mastermind,” he said. “But I just ordinary schlub who knock down buildings and cut off heads. Mastermind? It make me blush my face.”
| The Pentagon today released the first photograph Khalid Sheikh Mohammed since he was captured in Pakistan four years ago this month. |

Osama bin Laden would also qualify as a caveman, non?

Oh and Boberin/Neverthink - re: the last thread - the word is relevant as in germain - no not German - germain.

camo, I had the same thought. There are a lot of cavemen in that part of the world right now, pretending to cling to the seventh century. And I can see why being associated with them is an insult to the guys in the Geico commercials.

I suspect (and I could very well be wrong, I have been in the past) that this murderous psychopathic imbecile is confessing to everything under the sun in the hopes that it will take the heat off of the rest of the low-life gang of scum-bags. I suspect the Islamofascist moron thinks all of those cases will be closed. N’cest pas?
I wish they’d let me at him.

A. For the first time in a long time, I actually made it into the top ten posts!
B. Scott’s 2-for-2 today — with a record like that, maybe he should have been playing for Old Dominion, no?

(For the record, I’m more of a Tennessee Vols fan. But I live closer to ODU these days, and they just lost their first-round game in the NCAA Tournament, thus the reference.)

I read where they are going to make a prime time comedy show using the cavemen from the commercial. Could be funny if done right.
So is Fred Flinstone a terrorist???
I know Rosie O’Donnell aka Betty Rubble certainly was/is a terrorist.
Aba daba doo

Well, I suppose the next step is “terrorism, so even an elected dimmocrat can do it”?
I had chicken for dinner, I would’ve eaten two if I’d have known what day today is.
How has everybody been ? I am negotiating for a new job, we are still about $5K apart, but maybe they will come through, way better hours !
My youngest was diagnosed as being type 1 diabetic 3.5 weeks ago, had his first hypoglycemic incident today, but he is doing pretty well with keeping things in check.
My oldest got an annulment and just got hired at Walmart, I am hoping she will avoid loser guys and gets into skool, maybe we as parents now know enough that she can listen to some of our advice ?
Watch out for Shrillary, if you ask me she is thinking her latest comments on Iraq will gain her more republican and conservative dems, than the kook fringe that she is going to lose.You’ve got to figure she also has to figure out a plan to deal with Iraq if she is elected and the troops are still there. In my opinion, all of the calls for Bush to have them out by the end of his term should be seen as an admission that there isn’t a dimmocrat out there that has a clue of how to deal with the situation if they have to do so. Maybe if She gets the nomination she will pick Rosie as her Veep, anyway, I almost think she would be easier to beat than Osamabamamomma, or whoever that fella from Illinois is.
Hit and run poster…….this was a great one, how does Scott keep doing this ?

Germane? One of the Jackson 5 wasn’t he?

Khalid looks like one of the smooth talkers. Maybe he got the lefties on their side.

James - you are quick.
I take it that ol’ KSM and his ilk won’t mind being bombed back to the Stone Age, then? Eh?

FYI-
Even though he looked as though he could have been a caveman, it was actually a cellar that Saddam was dwelling in when those nice humanitarian missionaries rescued him.
17 mindknumbed kid // Mar 15, 2007 at 9:57 pm
Are you saying that KSM and his ilk were ever out of the stone age ?
18 MargeinMI // Mar 16, 2007 at 5:04 am
Scott, I’m shocked, shocked I say that you could be so politically incorrect! Don’t you know that cavemen, um, I mean Evolutionary Challanged people are the new victim class?

Please, show some compassion! The humanity!
(BTW, “It make me blush my face” contributed to the stickiness of my keyboard, and the little ditty from the airport commercial is now running through my head. Thanks!)
Morning all!

They may be mere cavemen, but the US and Allied Military have them shakin’ like Caliph.
What this story shows is that our heroes at Gitmo are doing their job, and doing it well. Oh, and by the way, we’re not losing.
20 gafisher // Mar 16, 2007 at 5:15 am
Afterthought — make that Sheiking like Caliph.

Mikey’s Funny for today really isn’t very funny at all.
Two patients limp into two different American medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement.
The first patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day, has a time booked for surgery the next day and, within two days, is home recuperating.
The second sees the family doctor after waiting a week for an appointment, then waits eighteen weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn’t reviewed for another month and finally has his surgery scheduled for 6 months from then.
Why the different treatment for the two patients?
The first is a Golden Retriever.
The second is a Senior Citizen.

Re: #20
And there are some on the liberal left who would have simply put the senior citizen to “sleep” rather than burden society with their care.

I thought Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was claiming an awful lot for his masters mind. I wonder if there are extra sets of virgins if you do more than just blow yourself up. For each offensive act; an extra 72 yr. old vulture.

Terrorism So Easy, Even a Caveman could do it…
Scott Ott’s on a tear again: That’s just the pic. READ THE ARTICLE! Man, I LOVE this guy!…
