Witnesses say Mohammed was not present when the raid occurred. There were differing accounts about which house he was arrested in. There are differing accounts about where he was before the arrest and how authorities found him. Some accounts have him sleeping when the arrest occurs. Accounts differ on who arrests him -- Pakistanis, Americans, or both.
There are previously published accounts that Mohammed may have been killed in September 2002. There are accounts that he was captured the year before. There were, in fact, so many problems with the story that one UK Guardian report stated: "The story appears to be almost entirely fictional."
And that dear readers is the essence of the "war on terrorism" -- fiction, albeit a fiction written in the very real blood and suffering of millions of innocent people. From CIA, MI6 and Shin Bet -- tortured patsies like those mentioned here -- to the multitudes of Iraqi, Afghan and Palestinian civilians, their lives snuffed out in an second by U.S., Israeli and British air force pilots or by the trigger-happy foot-soldiers of empire.
Perhaps now we understand what's eating Dick Cheney -- that the CIA tortured people on his orders? He cares not. That the CIA tortured people on his orders to make a case for the Iraq invasion? He shrugs indifferently. That he, as the most powerful US Vice President ever, used torture and assassination to manufacture evidence for the reality of the "war on terror" which, in turn, was used to retrofit evidence that Islamic terrorists carried out the 9/11 attacks which, in reality, were carried out by a cabal of Israeli and U.S. psychopaths, among them Cheney himself? Well, that calls for a few public snarls and not-so-subtle hints to the Obama administration that, while he may be out of office, Cheney's nobody's patsy.
