| Mullah Dadullah, key Pakistani Taliban leader, killed in Afghanistan: officials |
| 2012-08-25 |
| Pakistani Taliban leader Mullah Dadullah was killed by a Friday airstrike in Afghanistan's eastern Kunar province, NATO and Taliban officials said today, according to BBC News. The Pakistani Taliban claimed the assault killed Dadullah and his 12 bodyguards, according to Reuters. Dadullah served as the head of the Taliban in Pakistan's Bajaur tribal area bordering Afghanistan, reported Reuters, having replaced the former commander last year after it surfaced that he was allegedly involved in arranging peace talks with the Afghan government. NATO issued a statement today saying the commander, who was in his 40s and also known as Jamal, had attacked Afghan and NATO forces, said BBC. He was killed in a "precision airstrike" on Friday, the force said. The statement did not mention any bodyguards, but said Dadullah was "one of several insurgents killed." |

| #8 As times before, I'll believe it only iff Ayman + Mulah Omar + KSM, etc. acknowledge it. Until then, MD is just another "Zombie" [soon-to-be-incarnate] in this man's GWCC Zombie Apocalypse that the US-NATO may or may NOT had whacked. |

| #7 Hopefully this was life #9 as he's been reported dead in years past only to resurface. |
