A timely report. A documentary is due out shortly which includeds the likely assassination of officials with such army-of-one weapons. Sniping is the chink in VIP protection armor. Why? Because ego-driven assholes lust to be seen, and best, photographed outside the armoring of vehicles, aircraft and structures. The very targeting head shot snipers are trained to patiently wait for are the ones photographers are paid to arrange just so, Sergeant York turkey-calling, "over here sir." Who was the freedom fighter who smilingly welcomed death by public appearance. Archduke, Reagan, JFK, Masouf, or Abe himself. All those pissed off, well-tested snipers from Operation Iraqi Freedom on all sides. The Secret Service claims you cannot spot a serious assassin ahead of time, that braggarts and threateners are not the real thing -- sorry 'bout that outing Tim.
