Abu Ubaida al-Masri, Al Qaeda Terrorist Confirmed Dead
Wednesday, April 9, 2008 at 11:50AM Abu Ubaida al-Masri, not his real name has been confirmed dead.
It is being reported that al-Masri has died of natural causes stemming from complications possibly due to hepatitis while in Pakistan. Other reports that he was killed in January by a CIA-led predator strike are being shied away from. Either way, he is dead, and good riddance.
Though not at the top of Al-Qaeda, he was part of the inner core and was the alleged mastermind behind the July 7th 2005 bombings in London as well as the failed plot to bring down 10 planes laden with liquid explosives that was to be carried on by terrorists.
The plot was foiled by British Intelligence and led to the arrest of 24 suspected terrorists.
