Security sources identified the militant as Abdullah Azam al-Saudi, a senior member of Osama bin Laden's terror network.

They said US intelligence officials had identified him as the main link between Al-Qaeda's senior command and Taliban networks in the Pakistani border region with Afghanistan.

Good job. This should send a message for the Taliban and the AQ that Pakistan is not truly a safe haven as they thought especially when the Pakistani govt. is not doing anything for them. Even the new President Barack Obama supports this action and will continue to implement this policy, especially given a chance to kill Osama if it arises.
