Some Arab assholes pushed us too far, and now what's left of them are running for their lives. They'll be running `til they die.
Really? I guess that means you've found Osama now.

Well, at least you know what country Saddam is in.

In other endevours, that would be called a "fuck up". Your primary object evaded your attack and is capable of launching another of his own.

But then, armchair generals often fail.
