Did you see this bit:

Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff called the strike an important moment in the global war on terror, though he refused to provide details or explicitly say al-Libi was the target.

``While this particular strike was very successful and we were very pleased with the outcome, there is still a great deal more work to do,’’ Mullen told a Pentagon news conference Friday, citing a recent increase in al-Qaida violence against targets inside Pakistan.

Any comment from Barack Obama ?


al-Libi — whose name means “the Libyan” in Arabic — was likely behind the February 2007 bombing at the U.S. base at Bagram in Afghanistan during a visit by Cheney.

“Al-Libi’s death is a significant blow to al-Qaida the organization because he is one of the few people left in the organization who has a historical track record,” said Farhana Ali, terror expert at the RAND corporation.
