I personally think the Victoria's Secret method of interrogation is paying the biggest dividends.

Make you almost wish you were someone getting interrogated.

I just had a great idea for a new reality show....

So from the looks of things we have:

Musabir Aroochi and the Jundallah mob

Abu Talha

Ghailani

The Nigerian courier and Co

Keep in mind that we also busted a courier in Iraq the other day with a message from Zarqawi to bin Laden. I think we may well have gotten perhaps the other end of that communication or at the least perhaps one of the guys who smuggles all of those damned tapes to Qatar.

At the very least, their operations in Pakistan have been completely compromised. Roll 'em up, boys.

I imagine the fact that they just tried to whack Musharraf's new deputy isn't going to be forgotten by the Pakistanis either.

Those that would think of it as political are largely Kerry supporters already. However, it may sway a few undecideds.

"Waiting for Homeland Security to arrest 30,000 lawyers here in the U.S.A."

How about the two running for the top offices of the US, at this time?

Good guess. We haven't heard a tape from Al Qaedzeera lately, have we? But I'm still waiting for them to nail Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, the old AQ public relations man, as well as his successor - whose name escapes me at this time. Al Qandahari??

An ARAB who majored in Computer Science?!?!

A Pakistani, actually. But I do know Arabs, who earned PhDs in Computer Science (University of Southern California). I have also worked closely with one of them. A very talented guy, specializing in Computer Vision.

I am sure their achievements pale in comparison to yours, though.

Not likely. This is an AP story.

Do you have a list of known AQ members from Nigeria who are on the FBI's 22 most wanted list?

Suleiman Abu Ghaith is "in custody" in Iran these days and it behooves the mad mullahs to at least pretend as though he's inactive. His successor was Thabet bin Qais, who is supposedly the guy behind those Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigades we all know and love among other things.

Al-Kandahari is the new top dog in Yemen.

WASHINGTON - The information that led authorities to issue an unprecedented warning of potential terrorist attacks on financial centers in New York, Washington and New Jersey came from at least three al Qaeda members who were deemed highly reliable, U.S. and Pakistani officials said Monday.

Two were pivotal al Qaeda figures arrested last month in Pakistan in separate raids where documentary evidence also was seized, the officials said. The more important of the two was an al Qaeda computer engineer who relayed communications to the network's members, they said.

The third is a member of Osama bin Laden's terrorist network who is in British custody and is cooperating, one official said. No other details were available.

The highlighted portion is news to me.

I do note that most of the people the Pakistanis are picking up are not Pakistani or Afghan: maybe they're trying to keep the heat of the locals by throwing us some 'furriner' bones.
