Did U.S. Chop Up al Qaeda Boss With Terrifying Top Secret Spinning Blades?

...
A neighbor who lives nearby told Reuters that she heard a loud noise on Sunday but curiously did not see the usual chaos most Kabul residents associate with a bomb or missile attack, including smoke and fire. That has led the ballistics chattering class to presume the attack was carried out by the notorious “flying Ginsu”—which is named after the iconic super-sharp Japanese knives that were heavily advertised in the 1980s. It is pretty much exactly as brutal as it sounds, slicing through walls or the roofs of vehicles to destroy its target.



The weapon—officially called an R9X Hellfire missile—seems straight out of a James Bond brainstorming session. The missile does not carry a warhead or explosives, and instead uses kinetic energy and six devastating blades to take out its target, according to a Bellingcat review of the weapon.

The precision capability of the weapon means there is less chance of collateral damage. And in fact, there were no civilians killed in the hit on Zawahiri. The telltale sign of its use is that there is no explosion. In the case of Zawahiri, 71, only the windows of the balcony, where he was standing alone, were shattered.

The U.S. does not lay claim to keeping the Hellfire “flying Ginsu” in its arsenal...

It's like a SLAP CHOP for Terrorists

 

LOL, it's a kinetic energy weapon...

 

I think I'd rather be blown up than chopped into micro- sushi.

 

And if it was used and he was chopped up like micro sushi, how are we able to ascertain the identity of the target?

 

A weaponized Veg-o-matic.

DNA evidence perhaps? The more prudent approach would be to carefully verify the target before striking.

I think it was the 'Slice 'n Dice' weapon, since there was very little damage to the building.

 

Because your government told you it was the right dude. That’s it. That’s all we will ever “know”.

@Melb_muser has provided the method. It’s easier to DNA a diced dude than a blown up dude.

 

eventually there will be video released, up until the last second. It exists.

 

It’s quite amazing what modern weaponry is capable of. No doubt they have things that pheasants like us will never even know about. If the atomic bombs caused that much destruction in 1945, just imagine what they have brewed up since then.

 

You shouldn’t let US military hardware and software ruffle your feathers. You should be concerned about civilians in orange caps and their shotguns loaded with #5 shot!

Sorry, couldn’t resist. I agree with your premise even if we are not birds of a feather!

And yes, sometimes autocorrect is for the birds.

 

Kind of an interesting weapon as it has no explosive warhead thus much less likely to create collateral damage.

 

R9X or not, I think Joe Biden is lying again.

They will always be something on the internet saying the contrary. I guess you can pick and choose, like a smorgasbord...

 

Lew is a nut.

 

Yes, each and every individual can pick and choose. One can choose to place faith in the unsupported statements of known liars, or one can reject the nonsense.

 

Most speakers and publishers of truth and dissenting views are seen as nuts by the blissfully uninformed.

When a well-packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic.

The shoe fits.

 

Sorry, but he's fruit loops.

He's part of the Austrian gang, which is fake political science pretending to be economics, but their economics are even more fake than their politics.

 

Does that make you part of the Inside The Beltway Gang?

 

One of the best kept secrets until recently is that we put Rods from God up long ago. [also a kinetic weapon]

And I'm pretty sure we used it on Libya when Gaddafi was in power. Way back then I remember an oil field that disappeared and nobody could figure out what happened. Reagan was probably doing a first test...though I don't remember the exact year. It could have been later under Bush.

Daisy cutters were vicious weapons

 

I'm beginning to wonder if we are really killing anybody. We never see a body.

 

... And go for dark webs basement dwellers.uhu.

 

I guess we'll know it was a lie if these guys pop up again in the future. They never seem to.

 

I'm not that sophisticated with computers and the internet. I've heard of the dark web, but have not a clue as to how to get there.

Long before I made it to the internet, before I owned a computer, I already knew that it was utterly foolish to believe the statements of known liars.

Do you practice that Down Under?
