"Bin Ladin 'cornered' in Pakistan"
Lots of unsubstantiated claims from unnamed sources, but interesting nonetheless. If true, it sounds like some pretty impressive techniques were employed to extract useful information from bin Laden's videos...
Excerpts:
Quoting "a US intelligence source", the Sunday Express said bin Ladin and "up to 50 fanatical henchmen" were inside an area 16km wide and deep "north of the town of Khanozai and the city of Quetta". ...
Taliban leader Mullah Muhammad Umar is believed to be with bin Ladin, according to the report. ...
The Sunday Express said it was also told in London by "a senior Republican close to the White House and the Pentagon" this past week that bin Ladin had been located. ...
The Sunday Express said bin Ladin's whereabouts had been discovered from "a combination of CIA paramilitaries and special forces, plus image analysis by geographers and soil experts".
