According to Newsweek, "a Pentagon official proposed inserting a U.S. Navy Seal team on the ground to use a "snatch rope" operation against Krekar—a plan that was quickly rejected on the grounds that Norwegian police might start shooting at the invading Seals, according to a former U.S. intelligence official who was present at the meeting."
Shame they didn't do it... IMO, Krekar has been good and ready for Gitmo for years.

"The Norwegian defense attorney for terror suspect Mullah Krekar said he was unaware of an alleged US military plan to kidnap his client three years ago."
Because, more than likely, there was no plan.
It's NEWSWEAK who 'reported' this 'plan'.
