Jan. 13, 2006 — Today, according to Pakistani military sources, U.S. aircraft attacked a compound known to be frequented by high level al Qaeda operatives. Pakistani officials tell ABC News that al Qaeda leader Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's top lieutenant, may have been among them.

U.S. intelligence for the last few days indicated that Zawahiri might be in the location or about to arrive, although there is still no confirmation from U.S. officials that he was among the victims.

He's a victim now? Nice of ABC to imply the THUG/Criminal who did the deed.

This would be HUGE.

The only thing better would be getting Bin Laden or Zarqawi.

"..Pakistani officials tell ABC News that the bodies of the five suspected al Qaeda figures will be recovered at first light in Pakistan, but it will still take a day or two for any kind of positive identification. U.S. officials in Washington did not provide a comment."

I hope he is dead, but we all have had our chains yanked before.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that this is true, but I also must say "I wish I had a million dollars for every time we have heard one of these clowns is dead or captured"

Outstanding! Long Live America. May God have mercy on his soul. (However, I rather doubt he is having much fun right about now)

Well, yesterday was The Stoning of the Devil. Today was the Bombing of the Devil. Go to Hell, Dr. Zawahiri, all your friends will be there.

Let me get this straight, in a murder you have victims and in a war you have casualties. ABC news says he was a victim.

So I guess we now know who they were after when the aircraft hit earlier. Praying that they got this evil SOB, and his butt buddy Osama was standing right next to him.
