Capture Of Mullah Omar Confirmed

Jawa Exclusive: Capture Of Mullah Omar Confirmed *sticky*

An overseas intelligence source has confirmed to the Jawa Report that Mullah Omar has been captured as originally reported by Brad Thor.

You can wait for the New York Times to catch up if you'd like, we don't mind.

According to the State Department’s Rewards for Justice Program there is a bounty of up to $10 million on Omar for sheltering Osama bin-Laden and his al-Qaeda network in the years prior to the September 11 attacks as well as the period during and immediately thereafter.

At the end of March, US Military Intelligence was informed by US operatives working in the Af/Pak theater on behalf of the D.O.D. that Omar had been detained by Pakistani authorities. One would assume that this would be passed up the chain and that the Secretary of Defense would have been alerted immediately. From what I am hearing, that may not have been the case.

When this explosive information was quietly confirmed to United States Intelligence ten days ago by Pakistani authorities, it appeared to take the Defense Department by surprise. No one, though, is going to be more surprised than Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. It seems even with confirmation from the Pakistanis themselves, she was never brought up to speed.

2. I'm not sure it's confirmed
The Nation link ( http://www.thenation.com/blog/not-much-ado-about-mullah-omar )seems pretty skeptical, but who knows :shrug:

23. Actually, you are wrong as usual.
He's been here with your dog and the little woman, shorting BP stock with me.

19. LOL
I always love how the people who make the crazy claims, always want everyone else to do the searching...

Obviously the reason you're generic is you're not real.

Thank God I have a life and not Fourteen thousand posts on an internet web blog.

Sleep well.

:crazy:

P.S. :rofl:

feed your cats

:rofl:

21. And I love how people who spout crap are always so sure of themselves
Taliban #2 guy has been rumored to have been caught a dozen times. It's reported regularly on DU. Last February as I recall. Dozens of other times. I remember the posts when our military let the guy walk over the Khyber pass after Kandehar. There are people at DU with memories longer than yesterday's rolling eyes emoticon.

Get over yourself.

And I don't have cats, thanks.

25. You're confusing the Taliban with al Qaeda
Common and reasonable mistake. Bush et al captured AQ number two a zillion times.

27. Thanks Robb for sounding like a DUer not an internet troll
I can't seem to keep my mullahs sorted anymore. Is this the tall one or the short chubby one? The one who goes to weddings? Or the one who hangs out in secret caves we annihilate? When they waterboard him at Gitmo, who will he be then?

I need a flow chart to keep up.

15. Discredited.
Until another independent confirmation is confirmed, I'm discrediting this article due to the author being a Beckkkhead.

17. My understanding is, the authorities -- theirs and ours --
Edited on Sat May-15-10 10:14 PM by EFerrari
have known that Omar has been in Karachi (I think Karachi) for many years. Ahmed Rashid reported this at the National Press Club in 2008.

22. Could it be an attempt to create a new RW myth
- that we caught Mullah Omar, but Obama let him go?

26. I've been following this
...and been trying to corroborate it. There's a lot of talk that doesn't add up to Omar/Omer being picked up, unfortunately.
