CNN) -- An al Qaeda operative wanted in connection with the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings was killed in April in Pakistan, American officials have confirmed.
Pakistani officials had said that Muhsin Musa Matwalli Atwah was killed in North Waziristan during an airstrike by Pakistani forces near the border with Afghanistan.
DNA testing confirmed the Pakistani government's claim, U.S. officials said, and Atwah's name was removed from the FBI's list of Most Wanted Terrorists.
Atwah, 42, was born in Egypt. He was indicted in connection with al Qaeda's suicide bombings of U.S. embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The attacks killed 224 people, including 12 Americans.

His corpse must not have resembled his photos.Closed casket case? Or just a total basket case?
Probably more than just heads were rolling, when he got fired.
His new nom de guerre is Abu Warhead Blownaparte.

The scumbag cult leader just executed by Ohio took 17 years to execute.
Tookie took 25 years to get the needle.
This was even faster than Texas.

We keep killing the number 1, number 2, and number 3 guys in these terrorist chains of command. Then some other guy moves up to become number 1 or number 2, and we kill him next. Then another.
Just remember, terrorists, there's always more Room at the Top.

All I have is speculation; if I were the terrorists, I would be very, very afraid, and taking up another line of work would probably be very tempting about now.
For those that don't understand why killing someone 8 years later is such a big deal: we have to send a message to the world. "Mess with the US, and it doesn't matter how long it takes or what we have to do - eventually we *will* find you and we *will* kill you."
That is the new MAD, one that *will* reduce terrorist events against the US.

[Pakistani officials had said that Muhsin Musa Matwalli Atwah was killed in North Waziristan during an airstrike by Pakistani forces near the border with Afghanistan.] Heh heh.
Hey, I got no problem with making the CIA guy flying the predator a temporary, honorary Pakistani officer.
