Probably Arab incompetence at work.

Initially, yes.

Then Musharraf basically said that because the crime was committed in Pakistan that he should be tried in Pakistan after giving the US a guarantee that no matter the evidence he would get the death penalty.

The US basically figured it was the best deal that they could get and ran with it.

I'm sure a forensic DNA analysis was done if possible; otherwise, a passport or some docs offer incontrovertible evidence. Right.

Well, well, well. Lookee here, from today's FNC website.

"We cannot say with complete assurance that Asif Ramzi is included among the dead," Malik said. He said police were searching for Ramzi's relatives to gather DNA samples. Police also found a prepaid mobile phone calling card in the rubble believed to have been used by Ramzi. Investigation chief Leghari said the same phone number and card code had been connected to telephoned terror threats in the past — another indication that Ramzi was at the blast site.

Well, coop, how do you judge that statement.

It's hardly unequivocal, they have to do a DNA and the rest of the 'evidence' seems rather circumstantial.

To me that FNC statement doesn't say conclusively that it was Ramzi. How do you read it?

It's not unequivocal at all. I was just responding to your mocking statement that they would not consider DNA to determine the identity.

MY mocking statement had to do with the fact that the original report stated it was Ramzi.

What i was mocking was the swiftness of the declaration that it was Ramzi.

And then you came down on me.

So do you think it's Ramzi?

Try and comprehend a little first.

I never said they would NOT DO Dna. Just that the results were in so fast.

Yes, I think it's Ramzi. FYI, the title of this FNC article also states that it is Ramzi, even though the text shows some room for doubt.
