'Known Al Qaeda Terrorist' Nabbed in Khost(Nah can't be.... or could it?)
afgha.com ^ | Nov 6 2006 | Matt?

US Forces captured a 'known Al Qaeda terrorist' along with five other men, including Saudi and Pakistani nationals, according to a statement released by the Coalition today. The identities of those seized in the Khost City raid have been withheld pending the sensitive nature of the operation

The raid took place at a compound in Khost City. The statement indicated no shots were fired and no one was injured during the operation. Several women and children were present in the compound and a cache of military supplies was uncovered.

The stash included armor piercing ammunition, grenades, AK-47 assault rifles and camera equipment that contained surveillance footage of nearby military installations.

Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters are known to operate and live throughout Khost province which borders Pakistan. Fighters from neighboring Pakistan are also known to easily pass through the border area into Afghanistan on a daily basis due to the rugged terrain and well established smuggling routes.

Counter-terrorism operations launched by US forces targeting al Qaeda compounds in Nangahar and Khost provinces has been stepped up since August, netting and killing dozens of suspected al Qaeda militants.

It sure would be great. And THAT is my understatement of the day. I've heard far too often from the loony-left that we stopped searching for Bin Laden because we were distracted by the war in Iraq. I'm sure all of our military men and women who have been on the hunt for OBL every single day would have a few things they'd like to say to the Dems/Libs who spout such nonsense.

Good evening. Good find. I hope it's credible, and it's binny boy. If so, the RATs will need some serious counseling, and Prozac.

Good grief, what a bunch of creeps. I registered over there so I'd be able to get in when they have to lock the doors because Nurse Cratchet can't contain her psycho ward. Like when the election results came in during the last Presidential election. LOL But I signed on using a different screen-name than the one I use here.

If it was OBL it won't be confirmed until Wed.

Isn't Afghanistan 10 to 12 hours ahead? It would be close, but Wednesday a.m. Khost time would work.
