Captured Al-Qaeda kingpin is case of ‘mistaken identity’

quote[THE capture of a supposed Al-Qaeda kingpin by Pakistani agents last week was hailed by President George W Bush as “a critical victory in the war on terror”. According to European intelligence experts, however, Abu Faraj al-Libbi was not the terrorists’ third in command, as claimed, but a middle-ranker derided by one source as “among the flotsam and jetsam” of the organisation.]

Funny how it was such big news when we caught him, but not when he wasn't who we thought he was...

Never mind that it seems we happen to catch #3 about twice a month. What about #1??
