FC Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Al-Qa'ida goofs in the lab Q: What's the one word you don't want to hear in a Weapons of Mass Destruction lab? A: Whoops! Unfortunately for some hapless Algerian jihadis, that's apparently what happened recently. According to a report in The Washington Times, a senior U.S. intelligence official confirmed that al-Qa'ida affiliates in Algeria had to close a WMD lab after they got some "unexpected results" while experimenting with unconventional weapons. Speaking anonymously, the official said he could not confirm reports that the accident killed some 40 al-Qa'ida operatives, but he did confirm that the accident led the jihadis to shut down the lab. U.S. intelligence intercepted an urgent message in January between the leaders of al-Qa'ida in the Land of the Maghreb (AQIM) and al-Qa'ida's leadership in Pakistan, saying that an area in Algeria previously sealed to prevent leakage of a biological or chemical substance had been breached. "We don't know if this is biological or chemical," the official said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Hess Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Putting the separate report of pulmonary bubonic plague in Algeria Al Quida camps in with that and we suddenly know what the agent was. Yeah, OOOPS. I don't think stocking up on some tetracyclin would be a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I can imagine it: "Hadji, you go University of Tripoli, take chemistry?" "Yeah, me smart with stuff." Two weeks later, back at the lab... "Oops!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlunity Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 To: All brothers in jihad. From: The Office of Osama Subject: "oops" Oh, beloved. The Nazarenes would have you think that their medicines would cure you..this my brothers is against the will of Allah. The so called "cures" of the pig eaters are often handled by women and are thus unclean and beloved of Allah, it is known that the medicines of the infidel dogs are often made with parts of pigs and other unlearn things. Oh, beloved, Allah himself tells us NOT to use the devilish cures of the Christians. Should you become ill, JOIN together with other brothers, exchange the kiss of peace and share food and pray that you soon may see Allah.
