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.

I want them all, but I do think Zarqawi is currently in the position to do the most damage.

If villagers saw the plane circling for days, I doubt anyone of high value will have been among the fried.

This is the first report I have heard on Zawahiri being killed. Can you show me an earlier report?

article says the predators' cameras can read a 3-6" letter from 10,000 feet. Pretty good way to ID the perp, eh?

there was one other serious report in the past - that pakistani forces had gotten him.

Unless the 'high value' targets had been trapped there for days because of the planes circling ...(wink)
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!
To: Bullitt
its not a plane, its a drone.
so there are no high value targets in the vicinity of drones overhead? tell that to the AQ #3 guy, killed by just such a strike a short time back. what are you going to tell me, he didn't look up?
To: penelopesire
Worth repeating louder...
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!

They claimed that the planes "hovered" for about three hours. Go figure.

Well, the key word here is MAY have been hit so no partying for me.
That's a good question.
He has never "died" before; whereas some of the interesting characters
have "died" 2-4 times.
