An update of sorts...

http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/7598_1680036,000500020005.htmAbu Baker's family, which lives in the village of Ya'bad near Jenin, was notified about his death only this week.

His father, Abdel Latif, said he last saw his son about 10 years ago when the family was living in Saudi Arabia and he left the kingdom to join Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan.

Villagers told the daily that Baker was married to Zawahiri's daughter Fatmeh and had phoned his family last week to inform them of the birth of his fourth daughter.

He was alive up until last week when he made a call to his family....so his death was very recent..

Roger that. Things are not going to go very well for the insurgents during this spring/summer/fall offensive. With increasing pressure from the Paki side, working with our forces and the Afghan forces, who knows, UBL and Zawahiri and other's at the top and middle may no longer be around by the time the snows fall once more.
