'Dead' Pakistan Taleban Chief Takes Credit for Lahore Terror Attack
'Dead' Pakistan Taleban Chief Takes Credit for Lahore Terror Attack --What could possibly be the motive for this dialup from the dead? By Lori Price 31 Mar 2009 It's a miracle! Pakistan Taleban chief Baitullah Mehsud -- who supposedly died from kidney failure six months ago -- takes credit for three recent deadly terror attacks, including Monday's attack on a police academy in Lahore. He spoke to the BBC by phone. Meanwhile, Gen. David Petraeus (Betrayus) said Monday in an interview with FOX News, that the U.S. military reserves the 'right of last resort' for threats inside Pakistan.

1. (Dead) Taliban Leader Vows to Attack D.C. "Soon"
Taliban Leader Vows to Attack D.C. "Soon" --Pakistani Taliban Commander Also Claims Responsibility For Attack On Police Academy 31 Mar 2009 The top Taliban commander in Pakistan promised an assault on Washington "soon" - one he says will "amaze" the world. "Soon we will launch an attack in Washington that will amaze everyone in the world," Baitullah Mehsud told The Associated Press by phone. Mehsud also claimed responsibility for Monday's attack on a police academy outside the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore, saying it was in retaliation for U.S. missile strikes against militants along the Afghan border.

(Well, this is going to be really difficult... since he's *dead.*)

More here.

:rofl:
