 Coolness: 145215 | KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- A top U.S. counterterrorism official said Saturday that parts of Pakistan are a "safe haven" for militants and Osama bin Laden was more likely to be hiding there than in Afghanistan.
Henry Crumpton, the U.S. ambassador in charge of counterterrorism, lauded Pakistan for arresting "hundreds and hundreds" of al Qaeda figures but said it needed to do more. "Has Pakistan done enough? I think the answer is no. I have conveyed that to them, other U.S. officials have conveyed that to them," he told reporters at the U.S. Embassy in Kabul after talks with Afghan officials. The chief spokesman for Pakistan's army, Maj. Gen. Shaukat Sultan, dismissed Crumpton's assertion that Islamabad was not doing enough. "It is totally absurd," he said. "No one has conveyed this thing to Pakistan, and if someone claims so, it is absurd." Crumpton said U.S. officials continue to believe that bin Laden is somewhere along the Afghan-Pakistani border, and was more likely to be on the Pakistani side. "If we knew exactly where bin Laden was, we'd go get him," Crumpton said. "But we're very confident he's along the Pakistan-Afghan border somewhere," he said. He added that there was a "higher probability" that the al Qaeda leader was hiding on the Pakistan side. Crumpton also gave Islamabad credit for last year's capture of a top al Qaeda strategist with a $5 million bounty on his head. U.S. and Pakistani officials said earlier this week that Mustafa Setmarian Nasar was arrested in the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta in November. Crumpton said that this showed that Pakistan is working to arrest al Qaeda leaders. Pakistan has launched repeated counterterrorism operations in its lawless tribal regions close to the Afghan border over the past two years, in which hundreds of militants and soldiers have died. "Our expectation is that they will continue to make progress, and we know that it's difficult," he said. Pakistan "can't remain a safe haven for enemy forces, and right now parts of Pakistan are indeed that." A senior security official in Islamabad said that Crumpton, during meetings with Pakistani intelligence and government officials this week, praised Pakistan for its efforts to hunt down militants. "I am surprised that he praised us here, and is saying something else in Kabul," the official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak on the record. The official added that Gen. John Abizaid, the chief of the U.S. Central Command, also thanked Pakistan when he met with Pakistani leader Gen. Pervez Musharraf on Thursday. Former Taliban leader killed Separately, gunmen on a motorcycle killed a former regional Taliban leader who switched allegiances after the hard-line regime was ousted in southwestern Pakistan on Saturday, police said. Mullah Samad Barakzai, who was head of the Department for Promotion of Virtue And Prevention of Vice in Afghanistan's southern Helmand province during the Taliban's hard-line rule, was standing near a seminary in Quetta when he was attacked, local police chief Qazi Abdul Wahid said. He said Barakzai, also known as Maulvi Yar Mohammed, had been living in Pakistan since the Taliban regime was ousted in late 2001 as a result of U.S.-led attacks. The man had distanced himself from the Taliban and become a supporter of Afghan President Hamid Karzai's government, Wahid said. "It seems that he has been killed by Taliban," he told The Associated Press. |

 Coolness: 120930 | According to FOXNews he's already dead... since 2001 [ www.foxnews.com ]
[ FOXNEWS.COM ] HOME > WORLD > NATIONAL Report: Bin Laden Already Dead Wednesday, December 26, 2001 Usama bin Laden has died a peaceful death due to an untreated lung complication, the Pakistan Observer reported, citing a Taliban leader who allegedly attended the funeral of the Al Qaeda leader. "The Coalition troops are engaged in a mad search operation but they would never be able to fulfill their cherished goal of getting Usama alive or dead," the source said. Bin Laden, according to the source, was suffering from a serious lung complication and succumbed to the disease in mid-December, in the vicinity of the Tora Bora mountains. The source claimed that bin Laden was laid to rest honorably in his last abode and his grave was made as per his Wahabi belief. About 30 close associates of bin Laden in Al Qaeda, including his most trusted and personal bodyguards, his family members and some "Taliban friends," attended the funeral rites. A volley of bullets was also fired to pay final tribute to the "great leader." The Taliban source who claims to have seen bin Laden's face before burial said "he looked pale ... but calm, relaxed and confident." Asked whether bin Laden had any feelings of remorse before death, the source vehemently said "no." Instead, he said, bin Laden was proud that he succeeded in his mission of igniting awareness amongst Muslims about hegemonistic designs and conspiracies of "pagans" against Islam. Bin Laden, he said, held the view that the sacrifice of a few hundred people in Afghanistan was nothing, as those who laid their lives in creating an atmosphere of resistance will be adequately rewarded by Almighty Allah. When asked where bin Laden was buried, the source said, "I am sure that like other places in Tora Bora, that particular place too must have vanished." |

Whatever there are videos of him after that, the most recent was two days before the election in the US in 2004... |
