British sniper does better than 1 shot, 1 kill

[Khackee]

I really like when the good guys tap a good one.

A British sniper in Afghanistan killed six insurgents with a single bullet after picking off a suicide bomber whose device then exploded, British newspaper The Daily Telegraph reported Tuesday.
The paper reports that the 20-year-old marksman hit his target from 930 yards, killing the suicide bomber and five others around him when the device went off.

That's a beautiful thing.

Those Brits. Pretty frugal with the ammunition. Almost have to wonder if the young lad might be Scottish. The Queen's Lancers are headquartered in North Yorkshire, after all, just a hop, skip, and a jump away.

This article made me almost as happy as the article about the suicide VBIED trainer who accidentally blew up himself and over 20 students at a suicide bomber training camp last month! haha. That one was a good one

Well done, lad. Very well done.

My Grinch heart grew three sizes today, just from reading that.

Always refreshing to hear these kinds of stories.

Someone buy that man a beer and a night out at the strip club :)

Dont forget his 1400m shot a year prior. What a badass.

Very nice. Only good terrorist it's a dead one. Or em....six in this case.

They must be very convincing in their sales pitch. I get the whole "countless rewards" thing in the after life as the selling point for recruitment for bombers, but ever notice they never seem to be short on volunteers? It must be quite a story.

[soulezoo]

Love, love, love stories like that.

Hell, I'll buy the man a pint of his choosing!

[Kokopelli]

That's the deal right there. Once they commit to a a martyr, the best thing to do is "speed them on their way"

And this little Jihadists, is why you don't set the dead man switch until you are in the target area.:haha:

Simply outstanding,.......why is this not on CNN?

Ah...you well know the answer....it's the old, "Muslims are a good, peace loving people, who bear no ill will toward anyone...it is a religion of peace". Broadcasting this and similar stories might help reveal the hackneyed line for the absurdity it is and wake up the sheeple to the idea that they might actually be trying to kill innocents without cause. Even worse, it might make heroes out of those, like this young man, who are stopping our "peace loving friends" from doing so. "We" certainly can't have that when trying to "fundamentally change" what's left of America and the free world.
