#1 He has a reputation for being one of the Taleban's most brutal commanders.

#3 This proves that they are losing because of attrition. He lost and leg, and therefore could'nt hop up and down the hills fast enough to get away. And then when he was about to be captured, probally kept falling as he tried to kick at his captors.

#5 I understand there's some controversy about whether they bagged him or not.

Maybe they just captured his leg.

#6 Unfortunately, Time Out on the Fat Lady. Got an update...

Officials of the U.S.-led coalition lauded Afghan security forces Friday for repulsing Taliban militants in fierce fighting, but raised doubts over Afghan claims that a captured man might be a top rebel leader.
A 24-hour storm of violence in southern Afghanistan ended Thursday with about 120 people dead and dozens of militants in custody, coalition and Afghan officials said.
One of the fighters captured in a joint Afghan-coalition operation in Kandahar province Wednesday could be the long-sought Mullah Dadullah, Gen. Rehmatullah Raufi, head of the Afghan military’s southern region, said Friday.
The capture of Dadullah _ one of the most trusted associates of Taliban leader Mullah Omar and commander of Taliban operations in eastern and southeastern Afghanistan _ would be a major setback for the Taliban’s operational leadership.
But a U.S. military spokesman, Lt. Col. Paul Fitzpatrick, said that after checking with coalition officials, it appeared the detained man was not Dadullah, who lost a leg fighting for the Taliban during the Islamic militia’s rise to power in the mid-1990s.
"The best information I have _ and I could be wrong _ but the best information I have is that it’s a ’no,’" he said
.


Let's hope he's wrong.
