As if it weren't bad enough being unable to sleep, now you've got me monitoring CNN! (I was here when you broke the Saddam story and I well remember that CNN had the story way before the others. So I'll stay with them for now.)
Please throw us any scraps you can. Has anyone at the Washington bureau checked to see if the lights are blazing at the White House?
Pakistan has not revealed the identity of the suspects captured in the counterterrorism operation in Wana, the fourth by the army to track down suspects since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States.
Security officials caution they have no confirmed information on the whereabouts of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, but say the operations are geared toward locating him.
They say Pakistani rapid reaction forces have been deployed to specific areas along the border with Afghanistan, a mountainous landscape that runs 2,000 miles from the Himalayas in Pakistan's northern territories to the desert of southwestern Baluchistan.
The latest operation in Wana began on Tuesday, and although authorities said it had ended, fresh paramilitary troops rolled into the town late Friday, setting up new checkpoints and examining documents.
