Hopefully this piece of human excrement is now with his dead brother Dadullah....

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — The U.S.-led coalition said Friday it had launched an air strike on a meeting of top Taliban commanders in a militant stronghold in Afghanistan, and local officials said more than a dozen rebels and civilians had been killed.

The coalition issued a brief statement on the strike Thursday in a remote area of Baghran district in southern Helmand province, saying it targeted two Taliban commanders. It gave few other details and no word of casualties.

Afghan Defence Ministry spokesman Gen. Mohammad Zahir Azimi said the strikes killed three senior Taliban, including the commander for Helmand province, Mullah Rahim. About one dozen other militants were killed, he said.

Purported Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi denied Azimi’s claim that Mullah Rahim was killed in the air strike.

An even higher-ranked leader, Dadullah Mansoor, commander of the Taliban for all of southern Afghanistan, was present at the meeting hit by the strike, but his fate was not known, Azimi said.

“During a sizable meeting of senior Taliban commanders, coalition forces employed precision-guided munitions on their location after ensuring there were no innocent Afghans in the surrounding area,” the coalition statement said.

Wouldn't this be TERRIFIC! Another Dead Dadullah! I'm all for that.

I think what the Taliban in Afghanistan are finding is the same thing that Al Qaeda is now finding in Iraq...when you torture, mutilate and murder the local people, there comes a time when they rise up against you. And the Taliban just simply cannot have a "secret" meeting anymore. The hills have eyes, guys. And you can't hide anywhere, chumps.

What bin Laden and al-Zawahiri have found in Pakistan is the tribes willing to keep their mouths shut, but with the upcoming warring that is starting in NW Pakistan, those hills will soon have eyes too.

And when the tips come in, the USAF is there baby...blanket bomb the muthers.

Hopefully the world is minus one worthless Dadullah.
