President Bush war to make US safe yields results all over now the story of 'Mercenaries...' those who are fighting and killing for Islam but have no idea of Islam..
The left in US today should know that had it not been for Mr. Bush actions the bombs in Istanbul and Jeddah would have made its ways to NY, I suffer the most from my travels to US however the vandals on the doors are being stopped; if that means curtailment of freedom for suspects so be it..
Al Qaeda leader killed in South Waziristan identified
By Iqbal Khattak
PESHAWAR: An Al Qaeda man taken as one of the top 10 wanted men was identified as Samarkand, who was killed during the October 2 military operation in Baghar area in South Waziristan Agency, sources told Daily Times on Friday.
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) officials were shown the bodies of the eight killed Al Qaeda suspects somewhere outside the tribal areas.
“We did not identify the man to be among the top 10 Al Qaeda wanted men,” Pakistani security agencies said. “But the FBI men helped us identify him as Samarkand, an Uzbek national,” they said.
Sources said a Chinese Muslim was also among the dead Al Qaeda suspects during the operation, but intelligence officials did not say if Pakistan had informed Beijing about the Chinese national among the casualties.
Sources said it might take two months to interrogate the arrested 18 suspects.
“The report will be presented to President Pervez Musharraf who will decide what to do with them,” they added. Asked why the interrogation would take so much time, sources said, “We don’t want to leave anything to chance.”
However, their observation that the arrested suspects were ignorant of Islamic teachings was a matter of surprise.
“Some of them could not read even Kalma (the first basic injunction of Islam to determine one’s belief) while others did not know how to say their prayers. “We think they are mercenaries,” officials said. |
