The most dangerous terrorist job in the world—OK, second most, after suicide bomber—must be the one of al Qaeda’s Number Three Man. This is about the 15th No. 3 they’ve captured! Meanwhile, No. 1 Osama and No. 2 al Zawahiri, are still at large. Heckuva job, Bushie!

Is this true or just a playing game to satisfy Cheney’s survival even he was far away from the explosion ? Very sorry he missed it !

We learn later in the article: “Soon after the fall of the Taleban he actually surrendered to the Afghan government along with some colleagues. But he was soon released as part of an amnesty deal.”
>>> the most important role
a guy like this plays is to keep the War Of Terror and the Myth of Islamofascism alive and potent. The big midnight Taliban airlift out of Tora Bora into Pakistan a couple years back, you know was a CIA/MI-6/ISI operation.
So this begs the question: If it’s all ginned up, why torture them when captured? Simple, the torture is a pure psy-ops being done on us all. The Global War Of Terror is a world-wide black-ops/psy-ops being waged against the entire world by the NWO (New World Oligarchy). The tactic is to scare us all, literally witless, so when the time comes to get your chip, on the premise it’s for your “security,” you’ll go willingly.

Was this arrested Taliban official one of those infamous #2’s that we never heard about before or afterward? If they want to find the Taliban, they could just follow the heroin traders in Afghanistan. When are we going to learn that enything connected with Cheney is complete baloney.
