Breaking on KDKA Radio News in Pittsburgh.
A top Al Qeada fugitive is reported to have been captured by Pakistani forces. Reports claim he will be turned over to US authorities ASAP.
Sorry I do't have more...I'm at work and trying to get the original sources...The story was delivered with a "wink, wink - nudge, nudge"
Probably nothing but then again....

"...but the struggle is more than just about him."
Ditto.
"So good, another one for Gitmo, imho."
I hope they're kicking the $hit out of him in one of those eastern european prisons.
Thank God at this time in our history we have President Bush. I don't agree with Him all the time , but on the war on these murders, No democrat would have the stomach for it, and He has to take hits everyday
"The official, who spoke to The Associated Press late last week, said Nasar, who is also known as Abu Musab al-Suri"
According to Peter Bergen's new book, The Osama Bin Laden I Know, this guy was a major player. He is quoted throughout.
Great Catch!!!
Thanks! My coffee is streaming down my delicate LCD screen.
They MAY even put panties on his head.
How awful to contemplate.
"They MAY even put panties on his head."
A fate FAR worse than death.......
Well, news travels fast doesn't it?
I see you are already on top of this report, Cindy. I am not surprised! ;)
I just pinged you to a later article before I found this thread.
Wake me when they capture Bin Laden.
I saw his picture on FOX news - underneath the beard he is a DEAD RINGER for Ted Kennedy, circa 1980.
Here is what some authorities are saying about this:
Pakistan Confirms Capture of Abu Musab al-Suri
“Nasar is one of the senior theorists and operatives in Al Qaeda, and our interrogation of him could be as or more fruitful as that of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed since his capture in March 2003. I wrote a post about him at the time of his capture, which links to other posts by Lorenzo Vidino and Evan Kohlmann. Evan has also written the following posts here with additional information about him: A Chilling Final Threat from Abu Musab al-Suri: "O' Sleeper Cells, Wake Up Now!" -- Alleged London Bombings Suspect Threatens to Use Dirty Bombs Against America and Abu Khabab al-Masri: A Master of Terror. Jeffrey Cozzens wrote on Dr Brynjar Lia's "The al-Qaida Strategist Abu Mus'ab al-Suri: A Profile" last week.”
You want to be awakened? I'll be happy to try.
Wake up! There's more to this than capturing/killing OBL! And there are a lot of our people risking their lives to getting these guys.
