Does it bother anyone that the announcement of his death came from his own people?

He's history, that's what counts.

But with our media being what it is, our side wanted to make certain they had him - and because the forensic work had to be done on 'parts' rather than "a whole" , it took a bit longer.

an embarrassment for President Pervez Musharraf, who has repeatedly said that he will not sanction U.S. attacks against al-Qaeda

I rather suspicion M's protests are part of the package - keep 'em off guard.

Like, you think M's going to warn 'em - watch out the American's are coming?

Too many people take things at face value - but in this case, I'm glad to see the traitorous MslimeM is.
