The man believed to be the key planner of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 -- and several al Qaeda attacks in the past five years -- was among three terrorism suspects arrested in a CIA-led operation early Saturday in a house outside the Pakistani capital.

The arrest of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed is the single most important in the war on terror since September 11, said a law enforcement official close to the investigation.

He was arrested along with a Pakistani political leader, Ahmed Abdul Qadoos, and a man of Middle Eastern origin, Pakistani government officials said.

Mohammed was no longer in Pakistan as of late Saturday, the officials said. It was not known where Mohammed was or who had custody of him.

That peckerhead is sorry now. He's being "interviewed" in some undisclosed country right now. Maybe its Israel-they can get quite nasty on terrorists.

Geez where are the people who said Iraq was distracting from the war on terror?

The names of possible al Qaeda operatives, including some believed to be in Washington and other U.S. cities, were found among a "treasure trove" of material recovered during the capture of al Qaeda operations chief Khalid Shaikh Mohammed in Pakistan on Saturday, sources said Monday.

You know that's not "bed-head" either...they aren't going to let that fool sleep until they're done asking him questions... ;)

Wonder why he's wearing a shirt over that sweater? :puke:

I just heard they are trying to get this guy to talk by any means necessary. So they have his two sons in "good hands" and are going to use them as leverage.
