Default Ayman al Zawahiri targeted and possibly killed

By the time anyone reads this we'll probably know if he was killed or not. It would be fantastic news if true. ABC just reported that he may have been tracked down via the courier he used to distribute his last video.

Couldn't have happened to a finer man.

Not to celebrate in anybody's death, but he ought to be nominated for a darwin award. Killed because the source used to distribute his video in which he called for President Bush to admit defeat was tracked.

Beautiful.

Looks like the CIA may have acted on false intelligence according to Pakistani sources.

5 women, 5 children and no Zawahiri among the 18 killed. Pakistani govt. to summon US ambassador and lodge a protest of the action.

I can't help but think that they feed us false information sometimes to try to booster their cause. there is nothing like dead women and children to stiffen peoples resolve, and bring in new recruits.
