#1 The New York Times should be letting us all know where he is being held real soon. Maybe different people in the CIA will be told different places so they can figure out which one is informing the Times.

#2 But, I do know that Syrian authorities had also requested to get him back," said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity....
The Syrians want him back as part of the program called " Let us release a nice terrorist today".
Give me a break !!!

#6 Mojo, there are so MANY ways to kill someone and make it look like an accident. I'm sure there are Marines all over the place that can lend a hand.

#7 What? He did'nt blow himself up? Maybe the way he
did it is different then how he wants his pawns to do it.
Was he Blue when he was picked up?

#9 Must be holdin' him in one of those ultra-secret, top CIA known only (i.e. non-existant) bases in Europe or somewheres. Ask Mary, I'm sure she knows.

#10 "...possibly handed over to American authorities, according to a U.S. law enforcement official."

Typical NYT - no names, all agenda. Ooooo - Abu Ghraib! Ooooo! Secret detention! Ooooo! Double Secret Probation! Ooooo! Assholes.

FoxNews reported on this awhile ago this morning and effectively refuted it - not in US custody, but possibly in Spanish or UK custody - or still languishing in Pakistan. Who knows? I rather doubt he'll be going to Syria anytime soon.

So what is this "story" actually about? He was captured some 6 months ago and this is both old "news" and unworthy NYT fear-mongering spin. It's all agenda, all the time. Screw the NYT.

#11 It might not be a bad idea to give him to the Syrians. They've done a nice job on a couple of others including that mook from Canada.
