He was known to have used a variety of animals, including dogs, cats and frogs in brutal experiments which often left the animals dead.Where's PETA on this?

Cool. Whether it be human intel or signal intel, somehow we’re getting a fix on these a-holes.

He was supposedly
killed in January, 2006 also. We'll see if he pops up again.
Additional from your link: "I can confirm to you that Al-Masri has been killed," a Pakistani intelligence official told CBS News on the condition of anonymity.

What a disappointment.
I would like to see OUR intelligence make the confirmation.

Exactly. Paki intel and armed services are filled with sympathizers. After an autopsy by US military I might believe.

"Every time you have someone prominent like al-Masri getting killed in Pakistan, everybody has good reason to ask, 'Why are all these people getting found in Pakistan? Shouldn't Pakistan do more to push out these guys from its soil,'" asked one diplomat, who asked not to be named." Seems to me that an occasional Hellfire missile in your bedroom is reason to be concerned about the hospitality of the host country.
