Top al Qaeda militant is killed in Pakistan. Good news in the war on terror: Mohsin Musa Matawalli Atwah, one of the terror network's top bombmakers, was killed in an airstrike along with 13 other suspected militants. Here is the story:

I like the sound of this:

The two Pakistani security officials, based in the capital, Islamabad, told the AP that Wednesday’s operation targeted Atwah and another al-Qaida militant, identified as Abdul Rahman al-Masri, another bomb-making expert.

But a third official, who also declined to be identified because of the sensitivity of the issue, told the AP that it was likely that Abdul Rahman was one of the aliases used by Atwah. The FBI Web site also says one of Atwah’s aliases is Abdul Rahman.

So, we may have killed two targets by hitting one? Let's hope so.
