#1 Ladies and gentlemen, your targets have been named. Those among them who are real, as opposed to imaginary people, are to be found and eliminated by whichever means are quickest -- without harming non-human shield innocent bystanders, of course.

Take your mark, get set.... Go!!!

#5 Al-Adel fought the Soviets in Afghanistan during the 1980s. After the fall of the Taliban in the winter of 2001 he fled to Iran. [Where he was a guest w/ other AQ VIPs at a Caspian Sea villa.] According to senior Saudi counterterrorism officials, from there al-Adel authorized al-Qaida's branch in Saudi Arabia to begin a campaign of terrorist attacks in the Saudi kingdom that began in Riyadh in May 2003, a campaign that killed scores. [Let's not forget Iraq.]

Some reports in the past year have suggested that al-Adel had left Iran for Pakistan.

This article would seem to indicate that as well, Zebulon Thranter9685. A neat summary of the gentleman's history-- thank you.
