We got Ramzi's address book!
2002-09-16
US and Pakistani agents who are interrogating top terror suspect Ramzi bin Al-Shaiba and other Al Qaeda members have seized evidence in their hunt for more operatives, a Pakistani intelligence official said on Sunday. He said the investigators returned on Saturday night to two bungalows where some of the suspects were arrested last week. "The most vital thing they got is a telephone index and an office file containing printouts of some e-mails," the official told AFP.
Dontcha just love those address books?
The FBI is firmly in charge of the investigation, he said. "The Pakistani intelligence officials have been asked to hand over all such information to the FBI and work in accordance with guidelines they receive from the Americans," the official said. "These FBI officials are interrogating the suspects according to their methods and even not allowing Pakistani intelligence to interfere. The Pakistanis are supposed to extract maximum information from the low-key suspects and convey it to the FBI men," the official said.
With the two groups isolated, it's a lot easier to whack both of them with the discrepancies...

Followup: Here's what Kathy's referring to...

Alleged Sept. 11 planner Ramzi Binalshibh and four other al-Qaida suspects were handed over to the United States on Monday, the Pakistani government said. Two officials said the five were flown out of Pakistan. Two Pakistani officials said the five militants were put on a flight out of Pakistan, but did not say their destination.
Like, maybe Morocco? But I'd say more likely Norfolk. They're too valuable to risk having large men with moustachios and truncheons miscalculate. Better to shoot them full of happy juice... ummm... pain medication and listen while they babble...

#3  What caliber do you need? I've still got some. I don't start the celebration until we've got them. Order now, if we keep downing aq's idiots at the rate we've been doing in the last week, I'll be outta stock by Wednesday (and very happy about it).

#1  You might want to commence with ululating again.
Ramzi Binalshibh has been handed over to the US by Pakistan, along with four others.
They didn't (yet) say which four others. I wonder if you'll be able to hear me ululating from there.
:-D
