Adam Gadahn, the treasonous Californian Al Qaeda leader who has long been on Washington's Most Wanted list, was nabbed in Pakistan Sunday - a huge victory.

After some confusion in the intial reports, the Associated Press quoted Pakistani officials confirming the arrest.

Gadahn was bagged just hours after releasing a new internet video urging American Muslims to go on shooting sprees like Maj. Nidal Hasan's at Fort Hood last year.

He is the first American to be charged with treason since World War II.

If convicted, he faces the death penalty.

2. Interesting

Republicans will be absolutely livid that the Obama administration is actually doing what the last miserable bunch claimed to be doing.

Republicans did better letting their bogeymen go free.

3. Bush and Cheney should have been charged

with treason. Gadahn is a sprat compared with those two.
Now breaking on CNN.

Look at the bright side, it could have been another missing girl on an island.

Those last for months.
