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.
Please, please, please...
Thanks for the ping. Wonder if a name will be released overnight, it'll blow the libs' minds. :-)

I rarely go there, but when I have ventured in, I'm shocked at the lack of education these people have, let alone their ignorance and lack of common decency. For them to believe that the MSM is biased in favor of the neo-cons, proves that they do not listen to the MSM, they do not read papers, have not learned anything of any value, and that the majority of them are nothing but ranting children pretending to be adults.
ROFLMAO!!!
I didn't know that! I'm registered over there but I've never posted anything. It's bad enough just reading their idiotic, foul-mouthed comments. I did notice that I actually had mail over there a few times, and it was always mail asking for me to donate, but I didn't know I had to give them money in order to post. Why the heck would one even register if you can't post after doing so?
I'm not about to pay one damn dime in order to post foul, stupid comments. LOL
As many have posted in my previous threads asking about this OBL character,
"He's dead, Jim"

"What's Bin Laden's kid's name? His favorite son?"
Saad. He was recently "released" from "house arrest" in Iran.
I'll post for you.
Are you kidding? Madelyn Not-so-bright has been trumpeting for years that the 'Pubbies have had OBL captured and held at a secret location....just waiting to spring the ultimate GOTCHA! on the poor unsuspecting Rat Party and an even more "gullible" electorate.
Sort of like all the Gaystapo Gotchas' outing "conservative" homosexuals on the eve of the election.
For later follow-ups.
It would be like 50 Christmases..
A little frightening that there's a hope for this election based on OBL ... I guess some folks believe it's over already ...
