Likely Missed Zawahiri

October 31, 2006 | By Sniper One |

According to sources to the CounterTerrorist blog, it appears we missed Zawahiri.

I just spoke with a military intelligence source who confirmed that the Bajur airstrike (see Andy Cochran’s post on it) was conducted by a U.S. Predator, adding that helicopters were also involved. The strike occurred around dawn, as people in the camp were preparing for their morning prayers. My source is skeptical of speculation that Zawahiri may have been killed in the strike, saying that Zawahiri sightings are a dime a dozen. He says it’s possible that Matiur Rehman was killed, but is also skeptical of that.

It annoys me that (providing the source is correct) that we missed Zawahiri, yet again. This guy must be Teflon coated, he manages to get away from us far to easily.
