Zawahiri

Last time I left, I come back to find Zarqawi dead and gone. This time is it Zawahiri?

At a security seminar Tuesday in Islamabad, Musharraf said the targeted compound was being monitored for the last several days and that militants had been training there.

''We knew what they were doing,'' he said. ''There were no innocent people inside the compound and anyone saying otherwise is telling lies. ... Those killed were militants using weapons.''

A security official said al-Qaida's No. 2, Ayman al-Zawahri, and the alleged mastermind of the London airline bomb plot busted in August, Egyptian al-Qaida operative Abu Ubaida, had both visited the religious school several times, but they weren't there at the time of Monday's attack.

If so, I'm going to leave again!
