Different American Al Qaeda ArrestedNYT identifies the man as Abu Yahya Mujahdeen al-Adam, hailing from Pennsylvania.Initial reports seemed to have confused the American with Adam Gadahn, a California native who has been a Qaeda spokesman and often appears on videos calling for strikes against targets in the United States. Scattered reports are now surfacing that Al-Adam is an alias for Gadahn. Your guess is nearly as good as mine at this point. I will only say that reports from Pakistani officials on the arrest or killing of senior Al Qaeda and Taliban figures tend to be wildly inaccurate. Wait a week, and we might know by then. Labels: Abu-Yahya-Mujahdeen-al-Adam, Adam-Gadahn, American-Al-Qaeda, American-Jihadists, Azzam-the-American Views expressed on INTELWIRE are those of the author alone.
