HOT FReeper anti-terrorism aid: Checklist for tracking deaths/arrests of Al Qaeda thugs

FBI, FReeper 'Angelus Errare', others ^ | 11/29/02 | Wolfstar

[Wolfstar]

NOTES:

• The hard work of researching this list was done by FReeper 'Angelus Errare', with more info supplied by 'GallopingGhost'. Here is a link to the original thread. We all owe them a debt of gratitude for providing FR participants with a means to check off these vicious killers when they turn up dead or in custody. I have merely taken the information and organized it into a table for easier reading, printing, and upkeep, which I will do as reliable info is reported.

• Some of those whose whereabouts are 'unknown' or 'at large' may have died during our military operations in Afghanistan, but there is no currently reliable information on their status.

• Names in bold are on the FBI's "Most Wanted Terrorists" list. All have been indicted by Federal Grand Juries for various crimes against the people of the United States. Click to view more detailed information on each of the "most wanted."

• Those verified dead or apprehended are grayed out as a means of "checking" them off the list.

• *All of these men use, or may use, multiple aliases. There may also be more than one spelling of any name.

• "Sheikh" or "Shaikh" is a title and is not part of any man's name.

[Straight Vermonter]

Not on the list but he is still a big catch.

Abu Sayyaf Commander (Hakimin Imran) Arrested in Southern Philippines

[Wolfstar]

Ah, yes. Truly one Kreepy Kritter French-kissing another.

[Wolfstar]

You have an absolutely wonderful imagination and sense of humor. I could see your list made into a hysterically funny and ironic update of the old Keystone Kops movies.

[Wolfstar]

Actually, some may have died in the bombing in Afghanistan, but who and how many will likely never be known. That's the "problem" with blowing one's enemies into very tiny bits of matter or sealing them under tons of rubble in caves. Hard to keep a scorecard updated.

[Wolfstar]

Thanks. I'll add him next time I update the table. My point in organizing this info into a table is to give FReepers a way to keep score. While no one person can keep track of every news story about which piece of radical Islamist vermin has been scraped up lately, and while there are many thousands of their foot soldiers out there, we have lots of eyes and ears to help keep score of the top guys, at least.

What a fantastic list and thanks for the ping. Pinging others that might be interested.
