Taleban aids of Mullah Omar arrested
[h/t Ornery Elephant] this is looking like the country-wide crackdown that I’ve been expecting for awhile. Continue reading “Mullah Omar Aides Captured; Lal Masjid Assassins Captured”
The mainstream press is doing their best to cover this up — however Charles and the Lizards uncovered the fact that there were two suicide notes with anti-military and antigovernment rants in them. Little Green Footballs.
Pakistan might be unlimbering troops in Swat in Malakand to ready them for an operation against the radical mullah, Maulana Fazalullah, who has called for insurrection to support Lal Masjid. The mullah has known associations and sympathies for the Lal Masjid clerics, the Taliban, and Al Qaeda; many of the students in the red mosque also come from the Swat area and are part of his “Tehreek Nafaz-e-Shariat Muhammadi” (TNSM — Movement for the Enforcement of Islamic Laws.)

Lieutenant Colonel Haroon Islam, embraced martyrdom on Saturday in an operation against the militants, entrenched at Lal Masjid and Jamia Hafsa, in the federal capital. A smartly turned out contingent of the Army presented Guard of Honour to the Shaheed Lieutenant Colonel Haroon ul Islam.

The surprising thing was the reports of Mehsud fighters in the mosque earlier, since I do not believe the two groups would mix at this time. Two militants attacked from outside using heavy weapons Sunday, but were shot down.
UPDATE: BBC picks up the story on Al Qaida aligned terror group members inside Lal Masjid.
