Pakistan names 3 al Qaeda believed killed in strike


ISLAMABAD - Pakistani intelligence sources on Thursday identified three of four al Qaeda members believed to have been killed by a U.S. airstrike last week, though they have yet to recover the bodies.

One of the dead was said to be Abdul Rehman Al-Misri al Maghribi, a son-in-law of al Qaeda second-in-command Ayman al-Zawahri.

Another was Midhat Murfi al Sayid Omer, an expert in explosives and poisons who carried a $5 million U.S. reward on his head.

The third man named was Abu Obaidah al Misri, al Qaeda‘s chief of operations in Afghanistan ‘s eastern Kunar province.

Considering the bodies are "missing", I ask how do they know this?

1. It looks good on paper and makes the strike in a "friendly" country

worth it for the bushies. Dubya don't make mistakes, ya know.

2. Same way they know the names of 19 alleged hijackers

whose names never appeared on the planes' passenger manifests :shrug:
