“Nek Mohammed was tracked down by tracing an intercepted satellite phone call, a senior security official told The Associated Press...”

• “The British Broadcasting Corp. has conducted at least two phone interviews with Mohammed in the past week...”

It was not clear if the United States was involved in the effort to track Mohammed. Pakistan is thought to lack the sophisticated satellite technology necessary for such phone intercepts and acknowledges that it sometimes receives ``technical help'' from the Americans.”

“Nek Mohammed...[and] six others were killed with Mohammed in the missile strike late Thursday.”

• “The helicopter fired a missile at Mohammed's hideout near Wana...”

WOW talk about a lucky shot! The pilot really needs to go to Vegas.

One of these days the terrorist are going to realize that technology is a two edged sword.
