Beware men in pyjamas

How unfortunate that so soon after I incredulously watched on TV news a senior American military officer crowing at a press conference that some highly placed al-Qaeda bloke couldn't shoot a machine gun without his eyes shut that they should shoot down a British helicopter and kill five with a 'lucky shot' from an ancient hand held grenade launcher fired 300m away. If that was with their eyes shut.... help. Perhaps the US should follow their example and be judged by actions rather than posturing and remember that men in pyjamas beat them in Vietnam.
