Top Al-Qaeda Biological & Chemical Weapons Expert Killed In Pakistan...Maybe

Another errant missile landed in Pakistan, and just so happened to land on a house where al-Qaeda's top bio/chem weapons expert was staying. You would think with all our technology we would have missiles that would hit their intended target instead of landing in another country.

Security officials in Pakistan were seeking confirmation Tuesday that a top Al-Qaeda expert on chemical and biological weapons had been killed in a suspected US missile strike.

The news came as Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani held his first talks with US President George W. Bush, centered on how to tackle Islamic militants based in the lawless tribal zones.

Gilani, whose new government has been facing intense US pressure to crack down, urged the United States not to act "unilaterally" against militants in his country.

There was no immediate confirmation from Washington or the US-led coalition in Afghanistan about Monday's strike in the South Waziristan tribal district, which a senior Pakistani official said was thought to have killed Midhat Mursi al-Sayid Umar.

The Egyptian militant -- who is also known as Abu Khabab al-Masri -- had a five-million-dollar bounty on his head and is alleged to have trained hundreds of extremists at camps in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border region
