American al-Qaida member missing?(Adam Gadahan)
msnbc.msn.com ^ | February 07, 2008 | By Robert Windrem, NBC News producer

Posted on 02/08/2008 2:52:30 PM PST by Dog

Where is accused terrorist Adam Gadahn? That’s what Taliban sources along the Afghan-Pakistan border are wondering about the American-born al-Qaida member. Gadahn, known as Azzam al-Ameriki (Azzam the American), joined al-Qaida in 2003 and has appeared in several bombastic al-Qaida videos since then. Federal prosecutors indicted the Californian for treason in October 2006, and he's now on the FBI's Most Wanted List. U.S. intelligence officials have heard the same rumors, but tell NBC News that they have no information to suggest Gadahn is dead. They specifically deny that Gadahn was killed in the same Predator missile attack that killed al-Qaida’s #4, Abu Laith al-Libi, last week near the town of Mir Ali in Pakistan’s North Waziristan province. Gadahn was visiting Mir Ali at the time, according to a local man who describes himself as a friend of Gadahn’s.

He added that other militants who traveled with Gadahn also were missing

The plot thickens...

Right after the attack, if I remember correctly, both sides denied that Azzhat the Amerikan was at the location destroyed.

However....this rumor certainly seems to have some legs..

Especially since we haven’t heard from the little weasel lately...

I know it isn't confirmed.

It is news that his party he was traveling with has also gone missing.

[H]e's now on the FBI's Most Wanted List.

Perhaps now moved to the CIA's Most Gotted List. One can hope, anyway.

However, they note that they are having difficulty determining the identities of the 13 people killed in the attacks

Sorting through garbage bags of human salsa must be difficult.

He may have re-entered the USA in a truckload of illegal Mexicans and is now claiming unemployment and social security benefits.

Could it be that the CIA is not allowed to unleash Predators against American Citizens? Thus it’s best to deny he was there. He may just never reappear from the mountains.

"When was the last time he posted on DU?"

When was the last time his talking points were received by NYTIMES/PMSNBC/ABC/CBS et al? They must be really hurting for material if their favorite America-hating jihadist is MIA.

Hopefully he’s a smelly grease spot on some rock in Pakistan. Either that or maybe the novelty of being a terrorist wore off and he was killed while crying for his mommy. I’m surprised he acted on his beliefs since most liberals take part in the fight from the safety of their living room.

He’s with Osama Bin Laden, and the Norwegian Blue Parrot...

He’s passed on. This towel head is no more. he has ceased to be. He’s expired and gone to meet his maker. This is a late terrorist. He’s a stiff. Bereft of life, he rests in peace. If you hadn’t nailed it to the prayer mat, he would be pushing up the daisies. he’s run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-Terrorist.

Well, the agency introduced a hellfire missile to Ahmed Hijazi’s face back in 2002 (Hijazi was a US citizen).

This was the Yemen strike when we took out that sonofabitch al-Harithi.

Thanks for the ping. Gadahan is scraggly-bearded smallfry, suitable as a propaganda mannikin and not for a great deal more. That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t mind seeing him greased. But let’s face it, Pudge Boy pointing his finger threateningly at the camera had all the terroristic credibility of a 30-level World of Warcraft geek threatening a SEAL team with his Mace Of Smiting. Thanks for the laughs, Adam!
