Mansoor Ijaz on FNC "9 others captured with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed'
FNC | 03/03/03 | Mansoor Ijaz

Posted on 03/03/2003 3:43:27 PM PST by Straight Vermonter

Fox News contributor on with Brit Hume said, in passing really, that 9 other Al-Qaeda operartives had been captured with KSM. Some reports had listed Saif al-Adel as captured but this is the first that I had heard of a larger group captured. Any FReepers have more information?

I heard Ijaz saying a similar thing on a Fox news show with Rita Cosby yesterday. They were both talking very excitedly about things their 'sources' were telling them. Unfortunately, I came in late to the conversation and didn't really get the gist of it. I had been hoping to see something about it here, but never did. We need to keep our ears focused on Mr. Ijaz. He is the real deal.

These guys have to be sharing information more, not less, since they were disrupted. Everyone is a prize.

Now we just have to modify those minds who believe that 72 virgins are waiting. What fools!!

Mansoor Ijaz Bump!

I caught the whole thing. I plan to watch this again when they re-run it later tonight--he packs so much information into his appearances, and Brit Hume, thankfully, gives him the time.

I wish there was a way to know ahead of time when he'll be on.

What the yseemed to be saying was, this arrest was going to be like pulling a loose thread on a swaeter. It could unravel the whole orgainization with dizzying speed. What I don't know is how much was conjecture and how much was based on hard information.

There were. Mansoor said that three others were captured with Mohammed, then an additional seven later on. I counted 10 plus Mohammed for a total of eleven.

I agree, most others on Fox cut him short. I like this guy.
BTW, he has a BS in nuclear physics and a BS in mechanical engineering from MIT.

They also seperate all recruits into four categories: mujahideen (foot soldiers), shahideen (suicide bombers), takfiri (sleepers), and ansar (support personnel). Each category has its own version of the "Afghan Guide to Jihad," al-Qaeda's training manual (all four versions combined are roughly 3,000 pages in length) that provides instruction to recruits for just about any situation imaginable. 
Sheikh Ibn al-Liby  Terrorist Training Camp Commander  Apprehended

Mas Selamat Kastari  Singapore Commander-in-Chief  Apprehended
Current Tally:
Dead=8 Apprehended=13 At Large=31
*Note: There has been some contradictory information as to the status of this individual. Abu Mohammed al-Masri is a nom de guerre, hence one should not confuse him with the al-Qaeda functionary of the same name who was recently killed in Algeria working with the GSPC. Mossad reportedly had intelligence that al-Masri might have been one of the suicide bombers involved in the al-Qaeda attack in Mombasa, but near as I can tell the findings were not corroborated

**Note: Per Knight Ridder, he may have been captured along with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. If this is indeed true it would be exceedingly good news.
