Ibrahim Salih Mohammed Al-Yacoub		African Embassy Bomber		At Large
Current Tally:
*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.

There have been several requests to have a separate thread for this scorecard so here it is.

This scorecard is largely the work of Freeper Angelus Errare who gathered most of the info here. I would like everyone to give corrections, additions, update etc to the scorecard.

[Straight Vermonter]

I will soon be updating to add Osama's sons capture when there are reputable sources confirming this.

[Taxman]

Thank you both. That is a great piece of work.

[toothless]

You should host it somewhere else so you can keep it up-to-date.

Status of Major Al Qaeda Members (Extensive Update - March 4, 2003)

[jriemer]

I would suggest The Scorecard ping list so that interested Freepers would know when there's a major update.

Well done!

[GeoPie]

Awesome piece of work!

[jigsaw]

Absolutely Exceptional!
Many, many, many thanks!

[EternalHope]

A keeper.

You should add a footnote to this name:

"Abdul Rahman Yasin . . . 1993 WTC Bombing . . . At Large"

He is currently "at large" because he was released by the Clinton Justice Department after "cooperating" in the investigation of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. It turns out that he was actually an Iraqi intelligence agent, and is believed to have fled to Baghdad.

I'd also suggest that everyone stop focusing on the "Islamic extremist" angle to this whole story. It has become clear to me over the last few days that the radical Islamic element is nothing more than a cover for what has been a series of Iraqi attacks against the U.S. dating back to 1993.

When President Bush stops all the crap about al-Qaeda and comes clean on what has been a devastating series of blunders within various Federal agencies over the last ten years, then I'll be the first one to stand up and support this war effort.

Looks like you guys need to team up. :)

[TADSLOS]

Great resource! Please add me to your ping list. Thanks.

[Angelus Errare]

FYI, Saif al-Adel was apparently not captured w/ Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. The Knight Ridder account was wrong and they mistaking him for Sheikh Saeed.

Why isnt Ibrahim Hooper under 'guys to watch out for.'

Top Abu Sayyaf Leader Dies From Battle

A top commander of the Muslim extremist group Abu Sayyaf reportedly died Wednesday [February 19, 2003] from wounds suffered during a government assault on his hideout a day earlier, a military commander said.

Mujib Susukan, whose capture or death carried a $92,500 bounty, was shot under the right armpit and in the right leg in a clash outside Talipao town on Jolo island Tuesday, Jolo army commander Col. Alexander Aleo said. Susukan was the leader of one of several Abu Sayyaf factions operating the Philippines.

[Alamo-Girl]

Indeed! Thanks for the heads up!

[Politico2]

Why isnt Ibrahim Hooper under 'guys to watch out for.'

I would add him but he is not currently wanted for any crimes as far as I know. Hell, I'd add Little Tommy Daschle too!
