Jan. 13, 2006 Today, according to Pakistani military sources, U.S. aircraft attacked a compound known to be frequented by high level al Qaeda operatives. Pakistani officials tell ABC News that al Qaeda leader Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's top lieutenant, may have been among them.
U.S. intelligence for the last few days indicated that Zawahiri might be in the location or about to arrive, although there is still no confirmation from U.S. officials that he was among the victims.

Yep, also what gives me some hope this time is that all the MSM is beginning to report. Well, not quite all. The Fox News website doesn't have word one about this story. However, the top center of their home page touts Bill O'Reilly's show tonight. It will be about alien encounter stories. I kid you not.

From the AP report:
An Associated Press reporter who traveled to Damadola, about 125 miles southeast of Islamabad, counted at least 15 fresh graves of victims, buried quickly according to Islamic custom. Villagers said more than 30 people had died and others were wounded.
So maybe 15 bodies were kept aside for further identification.....?

In a bucket stuffed with pig entrails. That works. But with a lid. The new carpet you know.

I wonder if the AP led their stories about the bombing of Hamburg with weeping German citizens during WWII?If they did, the American public would have howled them out of existence. Big difference between the public then and now.

"No joke a terrorist named Nek Mohammad was killed in Pakistan while talking on the phone to a reporter.
The Nek Mohammad thread still lives."
You made my day with that information. I was only half kidding about the NYT and this latest success. It would be poetic justice if it really happened, and the fact that It could have makes it more interesting.
To: John W
Please let it be true!
I have been saving an Arturo Fuente and a bottle of Glen Fraser Highland Malt Scotch Whiskey for this occasion.

Any confirmation that he's really dead?? Not until Rummy has a press conference and states "Zawahiri" is no longer a contributer to the terrorist threat.
Until then it will be an "Elvis" scenario.
