Forgive me for speculating...
It looks to me that the big evil kahuna might actually be dead; damn, I hope so.
-that the rest of his key surfers are mush also;
-that the others are sorting out what to do next;
-that our folks are figuring out which of their folks to talk with;
-that other than some "mopping up" that will kill way too many innocent soldiers on both sides, this doodah may be close to done.
-that there is a slim chance that both sides and the world may, please God, have dodged a bullet on this one. Way too much to hope for, but just maybe. We'll see, soon.
Okay to pray for it to happen, tho.
