Mansoor Ijaz tells Fox & Friends, "Capture of OBL Only Days or HOURS Away"
Fox and Friends ^ | 3/5/03 | LS

Posted on 03/05/2003 4:12:55 AM PST by LS

Steve Doocey said on Fox this morning that he had just gotten off the phone with Mansoor Ijaz, the Pakistani-born American who has excellent connections to Pakistan, and that Ijaz said that the info they are extracting from the Sheik means that we are days, if not "hours," away from capturing OBL. They have traced his movements; they know where his wives & some kids are (Iran, where they are being "protected"), and think OBL even slipped out of the country and went to Bali prior to that bombing, traveling mostly by water.

Further, last night on O'Reilly, Ijaz also said that he has no doubt that we are using "whatever means necessary" to extract info from the Sheik. O'Reilly said "including torture?" Ijaz said, "Yes."

I thought so too, and I admit I could have mis-heard.

They seem to be arresting everyone else but Bin Laden. Ijaz has already blown the hours and days comment and now the clock is ticking on his two weeks statement. Tick....Tick.....Tick......

He says Osama might have gone to Bali? That's hard to believe.

More crap designed to deflect attention from Pakistan.

Remember last year and immediately after the victory in Afghanistan, the media was talking about Somalia, Yemen etc. Even a cursory look at the map would've show the logical hiding places to be in the badlands of Pakistan and even the big cities.

Makes one wonder, doesn't it. Why blab? Why now?

Wonder what the reaction was in various USG entities on Mansoor's comments.

Ijaz has been a little quiet lately eh? Tough capturing a dead guy.......That is where I am leaning. Cause of death, injuries substained. Where? Very nice tomb possibly in Iran or the Tribal Region of Pakistan......We shall see......If I am wrong or he is?
