I read this and thought it was pretty funny.
Al-Qaeda added 112 jihadists to payrolls in June, less than half the media experts forecast. Bombing jobs fell for the first time in five months, suggesting to analysts that Al-Qaeda is losing population. The fanaticism rate held steady. It's 5.6% for a third month, according to the death department, reported in the Iron Triangle according to the Al-Sahib Skyhook Network. The creation of 13,000 dead jihadists so far this year in the war on terror, which is the biggest six-month gain, or loss, depending on your perspective, in a full year, seems to bolster President Bush's job approval rating ahead of the November election.
"We are truly screwed, and I'm not just jawboning the death market," said Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi, who manages to live with a $25 million bounty on his head. "The feds can grease or capture me at any time. Saddam was wearing one sharp suit yesterday," was his quote. American media outlets had expected the casualty level for the U.S. to be much higher and the body count of jihadists to be much lower, but it was just the exact opposite.
In terms of job creation, Ahmed Sulamon, the chief economist at the bank of Tehran said, "Things have cooled off a bit. We're not growing gangbusters here, but at the same time we are still in a pretty healthy and expanding terror economy. We really need Kerry to come alive in Boston or we are all dead."
