But now U.S. officials have launched an aggressive new media campaign to try to smoke him out. In ads that have been running on more than 30 radio stations in Afghanistan, the FBI and State Department ask for the public’s help in locating Gadahn--and in the process seem to taunt the 29-year-old.

Wasn’t there some suspicion that we got him in one of the UAV strikes recently?

We have been remarkably successful since Adam the American was reported having disappeared in nailing Al Qeda leadership cadres. So perhaps

Adam is sitting in a secret CIA prison giving up every single thing he can think of and

or

Adam is a CIA mole who has come home and is sitting in a CIA safe house being debriefed on everything he knows.

And all this is disinformation to keep Al Qeda guessing if we have him or not.

Wouldn’t be easier to wait for Obama to release his donor list and get an exact address?

As far as smoking is concerned, AlQaeda and America are on the same page.

Are you sure. I'd heard he was going to a cookout at a little party thrown by five of the Supreme Court justices.
