Bin Laden Dead?

So one guy in the ISI squealed on another part of the ISI, right?

they are convinced if they just uncover some more crazy SeCrEts he will fall apart, but this is some kind of suppressed recognition that they wish his totally obvious, surface characteristics weren't enough to bury his career. come on!! the guy's black!! and the name!! what the fuck!!)

haha

Some dogs are big enough that, when they leap on a suspect, the person tends to drop to the ground, Sergeant Mylott said. Others bite arms or legs. “Different dogs do different things,” she said. “But whatever they do, it’s very difficult for that person to go any further.”

you don't say

Oh and can I just pour cold, chunky SCORN on all the Republicans/fake Independents now complaining that 9/11 and related events ought not be politicized by the President? #itsfinewhenwhiteydoesit

this is a drop in the bucket of the long project of white & patriarchal supremacy

booming post imo

this article was killing me last ngiht

"Navy SEALs used dogs in the mission against Bin Laden. What kind of dogs? The military won't say. But here are some facts about dogs. Some dogs are big. Some dogs are small. Some dogs are good at running, and some dogs are good at jumping."

its like, have we already run out of wildly speculative articles about how rugged and hot all the seals are that we have to go do this with DOGS now??

I want to see a military Pomeranian

I hope in the upcoming 'kill bin laden' videogame there's a secret code that lets you play the dog character

and that it is a pom pom

give me gangsta dawg gimme gangsta

Found the Salon thing I was looking for, about identity and narrative and whatnot:

I'd like to discover events were livened up by a cadre of attack poodles (tbf I just like the phrase 'attack poodle'). xp

Last year, the Seals bought four waterproof tactical vests for their dogs that featured infrared and night-vision cameras so that handlers — holding a three-inch monitor from as far as 1,000 yards away — could immediately see what the dogs were seeing. The vests, which come in coyote tan and camouflage, let handlers communicate with the dogs with a speaker, and the four together cost more than $86,000. Navy Seal teams have trained to parachute from great heights and deploy out of helicopters with dogs.

based on my limited dog exposure this seems like the worst fucking training ever

and you know why they don't work with pits? cuz pits aren't easily trained to attack people.

(I suppose the mental image I have of a Navy Seal jumping out of a plane with his arms wrapped around a terrified German Shepherd isn't actually how this works, upon reflection)

Wait until you see how they pick up the dog poop xp

This is AWESOME!

I wonder if bin Laden got to see a titanium toothed SEAL dog before they offed him.

a point ignored in most of this is that muslims are not big fans of dogs, titanium toothed or not

Fidon't

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_and_animals#Dogs

The majority of Muslim jurists consider dogs to be ritually unclean, though jurists from the Sunni Maliki school disagree.[24] However, outside their ritual uncleanness, Islamic fatāwā, or rulings, enjoin that dogs be treated kindly or else be freed.[25]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_and_dogs

The majority of both Sunni and Shi'a Muslim jurists consider dogs to be ritually unclean.[1] Most practicing Muslims do not have dogs as pets,[2] though dogs are allowed to be kept for guarding the house or farm, or when used for hunting purposes. Outside their ritual uncleanness, individual Islamic fatāwā, or rulings, have expressed that dogs be treated kindly or else be freed.[3]
