No Kiddin’: KSM Edition

Somehow I think this story was designed to get on the front page of the paper and at the top of news broadcasts yesterday.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s claims that he was responsible for dozens of successful, foiled and imagined attacks in the past 15 years relies on a loose definition of the word “responsible.” Officials say the 9/11 mastermind was key to some plots but a bit player in others.

The 31 on his list range from the stunningly vicious suicide hijackings of Sept. 11, 2001, to others that current and former government officials say were more talk than concrete plans, such as a plot to kill Jimmy Carter and other former U.S. presidents.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity, noting Mohammed’s activities are likely to be the subject of an upcoming military tribunal.

Both comments and pings are currently closed.

    Ya think?

  2. Wilbur says:

    Hate to break it to you, Oliver, but I also heard that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed claimed to be dating Jessica Alba.

  3. Repack Rider says:

    He also confessed to killing Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman. OJ is finally vindicated.

  4. Mike says:

    He is also the read Dugger and FDwhatever in addition to being the creep who killed Jon Benet.
    He’s also the one who persuaded Tony Blair that George W. Bust knows what God wants.

    I believe his actual quote was, “I planned 31 attacks and plots. Death to America! Four more and I would have received my commemorative clock!!”

  6. vwcat says:

    He’s responsible for the Lindburg Kidnapping.
    It was really him in the Book Depository and shot JFK.
    Was responsible for disco
    invented the edsel
    and new coke.
    But, his worse act,
    he is really the father of Karl Rove.

    Ok this is getting eerie…..are you stumping for McCain?

    You have more ads here for him…I’m loving it…

    “So I says to him, ‘Jack, why don’t you put the top down on the limo? It’s only November in Dallas, but the people will love you for it.’
    Jackie didn’t want to because it would mess up her hair, but Jack insisted.”

    In other news, it looks like Valerie was covert after

  11. SpiderJ says:

    Plame was under oath to Congress, here, so if the conservative talking points want to continue stating that she “sent” Joe Wilson to Niger, I fully expect them to produce evidence and have her put on trial for perjury.

  12. Duros62 says:

    Yup, me too.

  13. Nimrod Gently says:

    Don’t give them ideas, for the love of God.

  14. Duros62 says:

    yeah, but it will keep them busy for a while.
    And out of trouble.

  15. SpiderJ says:

    No worries, NG. I’m a liberal stating those ideas; there’s obviously no merit to them.

  16. fd10801 says:

    Duros and SpiderJ: I don’t believe she mentioned not sending her hubby to Niger, did she?
    I might have missed it.
    On the other hand
