And this is a problem, how?:
Saddam Hussein’s capture leaves two household names left on the U.S. "terror" wanted list. But unlike Saddam, neither al Qaeda mastermind Osama bin Laden nor Taliban supreme leader Mullah Mohammad Omar is likely to be taken alive, a top Pakistani cleric with close ties to Afghanistan’s ousted Taliban regime warned.
| Sammy wasn't going to be taken alive, either. Had a boom belt and everything, remember? |
And even if either were to be captured, it would do little to stem violence blamed on the groups, said Mufti Nizamuddin Shamzai, who knew Omar and called for a jihad, or holy war, against the United States during the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. "From what I know about these people you cannot arrest them alive," Shamzai told Reuters in an interview in Karachi.
It would be hard to arrest Binny alive since he’s been dead for two years now. If you corner Mullah Omar, he’s more likely to fight to the death because he is a true believer. You can always take somebody alive if you catch them sleeping. |
