Hmmm, they get to pick and choose. How handy.
Thanks for all the excellent links. I wish the lady who wrote "Overlooked immigration points" would sit down and have a heart to heart with Pres. Bush.

You got a point.
I tried 5 search engines and multiple ways of searching -- zip, zero, nada, absolutely nothing.
KARACHI, May 16: Muttahida Qaumi Movement on Monday charged Jamaat-i-Islami and its student wing, Islami Jamiat-i-Tulba, of allegedly resorting to acts of terrorism in the city and urged the president and prime minister to take notice of the conspiracy to destroy peace of the city.
This was stated by the in charge of MQM coordination committee, Mr Anwar Alam at a news conference at Nine-Zero. He was accompanied by Ms Nasreen Jaleel, Mr Wasay Jaleel and others.
Mr Alam narrated an incident which according to him took place in Baldia education office around noon on Monday. He alleged that some hoodlums mounted an attack on the sub-unit office of the MQM and ransacked it.
He said that soon about 30 activists of IJT came to the office in a bus of Government College for Technology and started beating up four workers of the MQM who were connected with labour division and education.
After beating them ruthlessly they took away Aftab Ahmad, Afaq Ahmad, Rizwan Ahmad and Ghafoor to the GCT and subjected them to alleged torture. As a result of that torture, he said, Afaq Ahmad’s leg was broken while others sustained many injuries.
After beating them, the IJT activists dumped the MQM workers in bushes behind the GCT where they gained consciousness after three hours, Mr Alam said, adding that after being rescued they were now being given medical treatment.
Mr Alam recalled a recent meeting in Governor House in which Jamat-i-Islami’s naib amir Prof Ghafoor Ahmad, IJT representatives and representatives of MQM and APMSO had agreed on a code of ethics for maintaining peace in educational institutions and for avoiding any clash between student wings of the two political parties.
Mr Alam said MQM had done its best to keep its part of the bargain and for that it was even removing its own wall chalking. But he regretted the JI and its student wing had gone on a rampage and their armed activists kidnapped MQM’s labour division’s workers at gun point and subjected them to torture.
He said that the true face of the JI, which had accused MQM of running torture cells, had been exposed by this incident.
He was of the view that such activities were part of the conspiracy to postpone local government elections. He claimed that JI would not succeed in its “conspiracy”.
PESHAWAR (Online): The accused Shehzad, who was apprehended from Shabqadar area on Monday for having links with Al-Qaeda, after quizzing by intelligence agencies had revealed that he was highly educated and fluent in three foreign languages.
One Mujahid, who extended shelter to the accused Shehzad told that he (Shehzad) was friend of his cousin who met the accused during a Tableeghi congregation.
He said that Shehzad had stayed in Gandhab area of Mohmand Agency for one year and later shifted to Shabqadar. Shehzad is reported to be highly educated and is fluent in Arabic, English and Persian languages and skilled in computer.
I looked too. Strange that there was not one word.
Just read the article you pointed to Jellyjam.
OPINION (based on cybersurfing only and no hard facts involved with this opinion):
Al-Zawahiri - alive.
Mullah Omar - alive (and negotiating?)
Zarqawi (with a bunch of akas on the spelling of his name): alive, but injured and possibly paranoid -- evil to the end.
bin Laden - His propaganda is still alive. He may or may not be alive -- hard to tell.
Liquidation is good. :-)
I wonder if the spelling of the name is incorrect???
I agree on all four. (I think both sides, ours and al-Qaida, perpetuate the bin Laden myth to benefit each other's cause.)
Thanks for the link JellyJam.
My pleasure ... once another video arrives, we'll have to be the lookout again.
Investigators now believe Abdul Qadeer Khan, father of Pakistan's atomic bomb, was responsible for uranium enrichment equipment going to Iran and North Korea.
Pakistani and international investigators also found Libya paid Khan $100 million for atomic warhead designs and plans for a complete bomb factory, the Los Angeles Times reported Monday.
However, still undetermined is whether Khan could have run his network without the knowledge of Pakistani military and political leaders.
Neither Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf nor his predecessors fully investigated Khan despite years of allegations from U.S. officials and international media," investigators told the Times. They said they had believed Kahn was accumulating enormous wealth and had made an unauthorized trip to Dubai where he met with "dubious characters" violating Pakistani rules.
"The military knew that Khan's orders came from the very top and that it was state policy to get the bomb, by hook or by crook," said a former senior Pakistani military officer, who spoke on condition of anonymity. "He delivered what we all thought was impossible, and that was what mattered."
Could be.
I changed to variations too and still nothing.
