No bin Laden leads in arrest, Pakistan says
President Musharraf does say al-Libbi led to 14 other arrestsThe Associated Press
Updated: 8:36 a.m. ET June 14, 2005

CANBERRA, Australia - An alleged al-Qaida kingpin did not provide information to Pakistani interrogators that could lead them to Osama bin Laden, Pakistan President Gen. Pervez Musharraf said Tuesday during a state visit to Australia.

Abu Farraj al-Libbi, al-Qaida’s alleged No. 3 man who is accused of masterminding two assassination attempts against Musharraf, was captured after a shootout with Pakistani agents in the country’s northwest on May 2. He was later transferred to U.S. custody.

“No he didn’t give any information, and he still hasn’t” about bin Laden’s whereabouts, Musharraf said in an interview with The Associated Press.

....

Despite being Pakistan’s most wanted man, al-Libbi was deported to the United States recently amid expectations he will be grilled on the whereabouts of bin Laden, who is assumed to be hiding near the Pakistan-Afghan border.

3. "After our Grand Cruise of the Mediterranean..."
"We set our sights on the Continent and from there, to the Urals by rail and then, on to the Mongolians Steppes. From there, China calls to us. But we lost 3 days in Gibraltar and had to scrap our stops in Brussels and Copenhagen. Ah, the trials of the weary traveller..."
