I haven't been able to locate a photo of Rabia. This information from the Daily Times of Pakistan dated August 14, 2004: http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_14-8-2004_pg7_38
" Officials said a Libyan believed to be the head of Al Qaedas terror operations is the top target of security forces hunting key operatives of Bin Ladens network.
Abu Faraj Farj, a former personal assistant of Bin Laden, masterminded the two December attempts to assassinate President Pervez Musharraf, said a senior intelligence official closely involved in the Al Qaeda crackdown.
Farj was a personal assistant of bin Laden and our information is he is the current top operational chief of the network, the official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Farj heads Al Qaedas clandestine operational apparatus in Pakistan and also controls Al Qaedas sleeper cells in other countries to plot terror strikes. Farj is on the run with an Egyptian cohort, Hamza Rabia, the official said.
Farj and Rabia are on the US Central Intelligence Agencys list of 10 most wanted terror suspects with a five million dollar bounty on their heads, the official said.
Information gleaned from recently arrested key Al Qaeda suspects has given the security agencies valuable leads as to their whereabouts, he said.
Any funeral or wedding claims yet?
Looks like a work accident.
Yes indeed, 200 percent. I think he was killed the day before yesterday if Im not wrong...
Well, that seems almost pretty certain.
LOL. I'd love to know if someone was actually paid the bounty. Wouldn't you?
Those three kids in the background are spooky looking - reminds me of 'Hitler Youth'.
AMF
Here is the first posting I saw on this subject.
Some of these guys like Zarqawi have been killed so many times I think we might need 1200% confidence.
Good riddance to another low-life terrorists. Looks like the CIA is getting in some good knocks these days. Way to go Porter Goss!
Yeah, well maybe the locals are getting a taste of what it's like to be bombed to smithereens when you can't see it coming.
We left a note? Cool.
This must be the 15th Al Quaeda number 3 to be killed..
boo effing hoo
</snickering>
Unfortunately, since this has happened before and will happen again and agin, it turns into a fruitless pursuit. Just like the oldest man in the world dying! There will always be an oldest man in the world, and there will always be #3 man in a-Qaida. You can't kill all the oldest men in the world, can ya?! What to do?
It looks like a Fed Ex envelope
