as "al Qaeda's #3 Man" in highly expert nomenclature which
is incomprehensible to anyone except for those in the field of
'Pataphysics.
Mythical creature, such as the
unicorn or bunyip.In
official U.S. parlance, usually mentioned by the government or
state run television "journalists", the capture or killing of
this creature usually is seen as a milestone and turning point in
the war on
terror (see iraqi elections).The "al qaeda's #3 man" position is much like the
hapless drummer position in seminal rock band Spinal Tap, a
thankless position which has an extremely high turnover
rate.Al Qaeda #1 man, of course is
Osama bin
Laden, while #2 man is Ayman al-Zawahiri.The reason for choosing #3, is that it sounds very high
ranking, while low enough for the general public to not ask any
questions about the person's actual identity prior to the
announcement of his "demise".In
societies with a functional investigative journalism apparatus
(sometimes known as democracies), the idea of a repeatedly killed
and captured "al Qaeda's #3 Man" would be ludicrous.However, in plutocracies such as the former United
States of America, this is very easily acheived, especially
during superbowl or
some other merkin secular
holiday.
List of former Al Qaeda #3 men
With the
exception of one operative, the al quaeda #3 men have all been
biological males.

in 1866 in retaliation for the American Civil War, never fully
recovered.To add insult to
injury; or injury to insult, he was Killed by Predator in Pakistan
Only
signed up as a gag during a drunken binge.When he woke up the next day, not only was he
al-Qaeda's #3, he also had an unsightly tattoo of the words "Smile
now, cry later" on his left buttock.This is a definite no-no in islamist circles.Currently resides in Austria-Hungary with live-in
