SPIN BOLDAK, Afghanistan (Reuters) - A man claiming to be Taliban commander Mullah Dadullah said by telephone a report he had been captured in Afghanistan was untrue and he vowed to fight on against Afghan and foreign troops.The man telephoned a Reuters reporter late on Friday, hours after the BBC reported the capture of Dadullah, one of the Taliban's top commanders, after heavy clashes in the southern province of Kandahar.
"I am Mullah Dadullah. The reports about my arrest are not only false but a pack of blatant lies," said the man, who sounded like Dadullah.

Bwahahahaaa. Well, if anyone would know what this guy would sound like it would be a Reuters reporter. But if it really is Derka Dadullah on the phone, maybe he could show himself just to put aside all doubt.
so he DID fizzle their bejizzle
I think Jay Leno even made fun of this dude's name tonight. It's a classic.
Mullah Dadullah. Also known as Abu-Daboo-Doo. Or as his friends call him 'Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do'.
ROFLMAO
LOL!...I thought he'd give his address and zip code to verify it's him.
lol!
And look where he lives: SPIN BOLDAK
...and you're not!
He had the Reuters contact number in his cell phone
Also known as Dirk Diggler?
You're going to give this dude a complex!
See in the window, it's Mullah Dudullah,
full of charm and appeal,
handsome, elegant, intelligent, sweet,
he's really ideal!
Don't you want a little Dudullah you can call your own,
a Dudullah who'll be with ya when you're all alone?
Take our advice,
at any price,
a Mullah like Dudullah is mighty nice,
Dudullah - a Mullah Dudullah for sale!

Reminds me of when during Gulf War I, the journalists asked the military briefers where we planned to land our invasion forces on the Kuwait coast. DUH.

I can believe it. Sometimes I wonder how some of these journalists got out of the eighth grade. But then when the Marines landed on the coast of Somalia, the dummies were there and filming the landing. Security is definitely not at the top of their list.
I can't speak to the legitimacy of the phone call, but it is true that we have not yet killed or captured Mullah Dadullah. His time will come.
Reuters has him on speed dial.
