CNN: Source: Mullah Omar in Pakistan
Source: Mullah Omar in Pakistan
POSTED: 12:48 a.m. EDT, September 9, 2006

From CNN's Peter Bergen, Anderson Cooper
and Charlie Moore in Kabul

KABUL, Afghanistan (CNN) -- The one-eyed Taliban leader Mullah
Omar, who heads the religious militia fighting U.S. and NATO forces
in Afghanistan, is living in Pakistan, though not in the same area
where al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is thought to be, according
to a U.S. intelligence source.

The elusive Taliban leader is believed to be in Quetta or its environs,
a city of one million that is the capital of Baluchistan province
in southwestern Pakistan.

The intelligence source said of Mullah Omar's location: "At one point
we had it down to a particular section of Quetta."

Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf did not address specifically the
question on his visit to Kabul Thursday, but said "Please do understand
the Pakistan government (is not) behind anything that is happening in
Afghanistan."

1. There is something suspicious about this story
This story appears to be planted by a Karl Rove type. It mentions that they know in general where bin laden is at too.
Is this a pre-capture story..My first thought ..If they know where he's at then it looks as if sometime around oh..the third week of Oct he will be in custody..The October surprise yep...
