Thanks for ping. Have not gone to Bill's site today.

Sure looks like some good intel and follow up work on these isolated raids. High value targets captured. Surfs up boys, get onto your boards and take a real long breath.

"One of the five suspects detained is believed to be a senior al-Qaida associate. All are currently being questioned for their level and involvement in terrorist activity."

"The arrest of Abu Aisha may have spurred the attacks, as he can now compromise his network while under interrogation. His network is aware he is missing, and now are forced to "use it or lose it" as Task Force 145 is likely on the hunt."

Things are on the uppity up that is for sure.

And thank you for the laugh! Just for that, I will write you a (very short) Panzerlied. (So maybe it was Ogden Nash, who's fussy.)
