Terrorists on the Run
Apparently a captured low-level terrorist was responsible for the capture of al-Qaeda operations chief Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in Pakistan. The informant will receive a multi-million dollar payoff and a new identity. Mohammed is believed to be a treasure-trove of knowledge about al-Qaeda since he was one of their strategic planners. Al-Qaeda knows this and has taken steps.
Bin Laden had offered a similar reward [500,000 pounds or about $750,000] to the family of a suicide bomber who kills Mohammed, according to the paper. An unnamed source told the Sun that Mohammed "knows too much and they want him silenced - fast".Mohammed is considered the number three in the al-Qaeda network after bin Laden and his Egyptian deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri. Mohammed is believed to have been the architect of the September 11 attacks.
This capture was a great victory in the war on terrorism. I feel all Westerners should be thrilled with this, but ScrappleFace disagrees.
