(Kandahar, Afghanistan) The one-legged operations commander of the Taliban, Mullah Dadullah, is reported dead. He was killed last night in a U.S.-led coalition operation supported by NATO and Afghan Security Forces in the Girishk District of the Helmand Province. NATO has confirmed the death and a reporter familiar with Dadullah has seen and recognized his body.
The bearded face was pale and splattered with blood, and he appeared to have suffered a head wound.The Afghan governor of Kandahar Province, Assadullah Khalid, also confirmed the killing.Placed on a stretcher, the corpse was partially covered with a purple cloth. The left leg was missing.
"He was killed last night and right now I have his body before me."Dadullah was a member of the Taliban leadership council and prominent military commander who specialized in suicide bombing, kidnappings of foreigners and beheadings. He also was known for his boastful videos and his ability to access the media.
Dadullah's death is considered a serious blow to the Taliban. A Pakistani newspaper editor said, "I think this is the biggest loss for the Taliban in the last six years. I don't think they can find someone as daring and as important as Dadullah."

On a sadder note I am sure the libs will not find a reason to be happy over this because we should have killed him before we were even there. Like 1977 or 1066 LOL

I would have written the headline thusly:
"Mullah Medulla Dadullah Oblongata, Infamous Taliban Brain Stem, Sent To Hell."

Is it fair to cap a one-legged man as he's hopping away? It is if he's been consumed by evil.
Good work.

we are starting to wear down our enemies..not just his materiel capabilities but his command staff? This death is akin in many ways to Stonewall Jacksons death in the civil war; a huge, respected bigger than life mujahadeen is now GONE..and they've got nothing left of the same caliber to throw at us.This is an excellent Mothers day present.

What a nice touch to have him draped in pink. Nothing says Happy Mother's Day like a dead terrorist.
