Farooqi Killed in Pakistan
Pakistani forces engaged Islamofascist terrorists in a four-hour gun battle and have reportedly killed top al Qaeda operative Amjad Hussain Farooqi:
Amjad Hussain Farooqi was wanted for his alleged role in the kidnapping and beheading of reporter Daniel Pearl in 2002 and two assassination attempts against President Gen. Pervez Musharraf in December 2003.
So how’s that whole War on Islamofascism going? Kerry tells one story. The facts tell another:
Pakistan is a key ally of the United States in its war against terrorism and has arrested more than 600 al Qaeda suspects, including several senior figures in the terror network. Many of them have been handed over to U.S. authorities.Since mid-July, Pakistan says it has arrested at least 70 terrorist suspects, including Mohammed Naeem Noor Khan, an alleged al-Qaida computer expert, and Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani, a Tanzanian suspect in the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in east Africa that killed more than 200 people.
So much for that whole “failed foreign policy” thing.

is ridiculous that after this war,we still got people daing and nothing gets done.I only hope nobady else is gowing to suffer anymore
Your definition of nothing getting done must be very different than mine. Electricity better than ever, children vacinated, schools open, municipal elections, wetlands restored, roads build, oil pumping, commerce booming, free press operating, free elections on track for January, and so much more.
Patience. We are rebuilding a shattered nation and it will take more than a handful of years. Yet in the end everyone will benefit.
In Wartime, Deceit Can Be the Better Part of Valor
By Michael Schrage
When “unnamed U.S. government officials” leaked the story this fall that al Qaeda computer expert Muhammad Naeem Noor Khan had been arrested in Pakistan, media reports described British and Pakistani intelligence officials as furious about the resulting firestorm of coverage. Officials were quoted as saying that the news had blown a global sting operation by destroying Khan’s value as a “double agent” who’d been turned against his al Qaeda colleagues. U.S. senators and British MPs on both sides of the aisle publicly deplored this shocking intelligence “debacle.”
What a terrific story. But was any of it — Khan’s purported role as a double agent, the outrage of intelligence officers — really true? There’s a good chance that much of it wasn’t.
