Hey, put a burka on that doll, Abdul.

Hey, put a burka on that doll, Abdul. Al-Qaida in Yemen put together a completely serious, completely hilarious list of tips for surviving American drones. Tip #18 is “Formation of fake gatherings such as using dolls and statutes (sic) to be placed outside false ditches to mislead the enemy.” They also suggest hiding under a tree. Good luck finding a tree in Yemen, Hakeem.

  • Why do they all look like Debbie Washerhands Much? Mouth open, large forehead, hands reaching out for cash?

  • I wonder how many virgins you get for beheading a doll without a burka? What about if the doll was travelling around with some guy not related to her AND did not have a burka. How can I keep score properly without all these details???

  • I would tell them that if they were serious about survival that they should hide behind a jew. Imagine the looks you would get.

  • Fake dolls... sure thing, Mohammed... that'll be about as effective as covering your head in a nuclear attack. Anybody remember those ridiculous school drills back in the 50's? Oh, BTW... this is a racist picture.. in case you didn't know.

      • Not for girls, anyway.

        I guess nobody mentioned to Mohammed there that our drones have thermal imaging cameras. Unless they blow those dolls up with hot air,........

    • During one of the nuclear attack drills, when I was a senior in high school, I didn't climb under my desk. I just turned and looked out the open door. My architecture teacher, Mr. Gardner, casually strolled over to my drawing table to inquire why I was not under my desk, with one arm across my eyes, and one across the back of my neck.

      Having a very good working relationship with this particular teacher, I answered, "Why would I do that?"

      He pointed out the door, to the football stadium. "What if there were a nuclear bomb about to go off right out there?"

      "Mr. Gardner, I've never seen a nuclear bomb go off up close and personal. I don't want to miss out on my chance." Slowly, everyone else climbed out from under their tables, and together with Mr. Gardner, who had also seen the light, we all looked out towards the stadium. And we did that every time there was a nuclear attack drill after that.
