This is a very quick consolidation to help us all follow this ongoing story a bit better. I know several of the regulars around here will help me to correct any errors and make any additions/subtractions.
In summary - JOB WELL DONE by the U.S. and Pakistani authorities!

Even if al-Zawahiri survived, he has to realize that there are many muslims who wish him dead, as well as the whole world.

I certainly hope the CIA has proper Koran-blowing up procedures in place...

Two points:
The size of the footprint in taking out 3 homes makes me wonder if possibly 2 Hellfire missiles were involved.
I want to remind everyone the final score is not known yet. Over the next 3 or 4 days more information will come out.

I guess Bin Laden has an open invitation because he's not on the list.

U.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.
Coop, I'm not an accountant or a math teacher, so maybe I don't get it...
If Pakistani officials say 4 or 5 foreign fighters were killed along with 18 civilians, that would be a total of 22-23. And if there were 5 women and 5 children killed, that would leave 12-13 "unclassified" dead folk. So, maybe we killed more bad guys than even the 8 that U.S. officials are talking about?
A girl can wish, anyway.

WEll done to you on putting the facts together, and correcting the story tat this was a 'mistaken' target.
We are hitting the terrorists - GOOD.

Coop, and all:
Bill Roggio over at Threatswatch is citing Dan Darling over at Regnumcrucis as follows:
Abu Khabab al-Masri (WMD committee head) Abd Rahman al-Masri al-Maghribi (al-Zawahiris son-in-law, al-Qaeda commander)
Abu Ubeidah al-Masri (Kunar operations chief)
Marwan al-Suri (Waziristan operations chief)
Khalid Habib (southeastern Afghanistan commander)
Abdul Hadi al-Iraqi (southwestern Afghanistan commander)
http://inbrief.threatswatch.org/2006/01/two-more-alqaeda-commanders-be/
AND
http://regnumcrucis.blogspot.com/2006_01_15_regnumcrucis_archive.html#113764992010408132
Roggio, I think correctly, notes that Abdul Hadi al-Iraqi was invited, but not necessarily reported killed.
Dan Darling's list does not include Mustafa Osman, but your's does. You have Abdul Hadi al-Iraqi as invited, but not reported.
