7- Pakistan hunts for pro-Taleban clerics who were at Al Qaeda dinner, 20 Jan

Reportedly killed (by at least one major news source):

 
1,3,4Abu Ubaidah al-Misri (Masri?)

Egyptian Dep. cmdr of AQ in Kunar, Afghanistan

1Marwan As-Suri

Syrian AQ cmdr in Pakistani region adjacent to Kunar

1,5Abu Khabab al-Masri (Midhat Mursi)

Egyptian AQ bombmaking and chem. weapons expert

1,4Khalid Habib

?? AQ operations chief in Pak/Afghanistan

1,3,5Abdul Rehman al-Misri al-Magrabi

6Moroccan AQ media chief, Zawahiri’s son-in-law

6Mustafa Osman

Egyptian Associate of al-Zawahiri

 
Reportedly invited to party (fate unknown):

1Abdul Hadi al-Iraqi

Iraqi Liaison between AQ Pakistan and Zarqawi

1Ayman al-Zawahiri

Egyptian AQ deputy commander

2,7Maulana Faqir Mohammed

Pakistani Pro-Taliban cleric (suspected of moving bodies)

2,7Liaqat Ali

Pakistani Pro-Taliban cleric 7(suspected of moving bodies)

4U.S. officials have said that four to eight al Qaeda-affiliated "foreigners" were killed in the attack, including some Egyptians. The bodies were quickly removed by accomplices and buried elsewhere, knowledgeable sources have said…Pakistani officials have said that "four or five" foreign fighters were killed in the strike, along with 18 civilians, including five children and five women.

Coop comment: 18 seems to keep popping up, as in 18 “innocent” civilians. Five women and five children can be reasonably assumed to be innocents, leaving us with eight likely terrorists and their supporters. So you can see why the U.S. officials keep coming out with up to eight killed.

5Friday's strike was the third believed to have been carried out since May by CIA-operated Predator drone aircraft in Pakistani tribal lands near the Afghan border. Abu Hamza Rabia, an Egyptian said to have been al Qaeda's No. 3 commander, was killed in December, and a known al Qaeda bombmaker, Haitham al-Yemeni, was killed in May.

Update: the clerics [Mohammed and Ali] returned to lead funeral rites for the victims. Then they came back again to lead a large protest against the allegedly CIA-led sortie.

Mohammed and Ali mobilized around 8,000 armed men to fight US forces after its invasion of Afghanistan following the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in the United States, Pakistani officials said.

The two are already wanted for harboring terrorists, and the government has outlawed their Islamic group, Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e-Shariat Mohammadi,
or Movement for the Enforcement of Islamic Law. In May last year, security forces raided their homes in Hewai, arresting at least a dozen suspected terrorists from Uzbekistan.

In May last year, security forces raided [Mohammad and Ali's] homes in Hewai, arresting at least a dozen suspected terrorists from Uzbekistan. They were not present then.

Folks, I've been hitting the search engines looking for info on this May 05 incident. So far, zilch. I thought one of you, especially SV with his frequent compilations, might recall or have access to some more info. Thanks in advance!

And the moral of the story is.....don't have dinner with terrorists. And don't bring your kids.

Take a closer look at the link you posted, to the AP story at Khaleej. The raid was last May, but the quote from Mohammad was from the last week:

In May last year, security forces raided their homes in Hewai, arresting at least a dozen suspected terrorists from Uzbekistan. They were not present then.

The News, a widely circulated Pakistani national newspaper, quoted Mohammed as saying earlier this week that he “would offer refuge” to al-Zawahri “if he made a request.”

“It is my wish to meet al-Zawahri because he is a soldier of Islam,” it quoted him as saying.

That May raid may not have gotten much coverage outside the regional papers. Whether they get cached that far back or not is not known to me.

Right here.

Seven held over alleged links with al-Qaeda in Pakistan (Updated at 1800 PST)

ISLAMABAD: Security forces have captured at least seven al-Qaeda suspects including three Afghans during an operation here at Bajoor Agency, who were later shifted to unknown place through a helicopter, learnt government sources informed. According to eyewitness, both male and female commandos took part in the operation, which was carried out in the wee hours basically for capturing Maulvi Faqir Mohammad, former chief of outlawed Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e-Shariat-e- Mohammadi. However, Faqir Mohammad could be arrested.

A close relative of the chief told Geo TV that Faqir Mohammad’s brother Gul Mohammad and two other relatives namely Jan Mohammad and Nazir Mohammad have been arrested in the raid.

On the other hand, the forces have also nabbed three Afghans and their guest belonging to Kunnar province of Afghanistan.

Those who were captured in the operation unresistingly handed over themselves to the authorities, sources told adding that later they after blindfolded were shifted to an unknown place.

It may be here mentioned as to brother of Maulvi Faqir Mohammad named Karim was also captured over alleged links with al-Qaeda.

Coop from the looks of it....they didn't capture him....and BTW this took place on the same day they nabbed al-Libbi..

"Some people left the house around eight. Some people left around midnight," the official said. The strike was launched a few hours later, the official added.

This is the first time I've seen such a detailed timeline. The dinner started around sundown. We struck at about 3 a.m. local time. So the only way we get Zawahiri is if he spends the night there. Now that's certainly a possibility, given the other big names we likely killed. But it doesn't fit the profile of someone who's been on the run for several years.

They arrested one of Faqir Mohammeds relatives in Damadola....he was arrested with another guy(who they accused of planting landmines).

Remember that explosion of a landmine..... injuring 2 "goobers" at place called Jangevi 5 km from Damadola?. Could it be connected to the hit on Zawahiri?
