ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - The al-Qaida suspect named by U.S. officials as the source of information that led to this week's terrorist alerts was working undercover, Pakistani intelligence sources said Friday, putting an end to the sting operation and forcing Pakistan to hide the man in a secret location.

Under pressure to justify the alerts in three Northeastern cities, U.S. officials confirmed a report by The New York Times that the man, Mohammad Naeem Noor Khan, was the source of the intelligence that led to the decision.

A Pakistani intelligence source told Reuters on Friday that Khan, who was arrested in Lahore secretly last month, had been actively cooperating with intelligence agents to help catch al-Qaida operatives when his name appeared in U.S. newspapers.

Monday evening, after Khan's name appeared, Pakistani officials moved him to a secret location.

Way to go, Smirk.

First the AWOL Administration outs Valerie Plame, destroys a major covert CIA operation, and compromises our national security--and now this.

What happened to the 4 year old imformation there dimwit?

Changing streams I see, Amnesia I see.

It was the media that blew the cover dimwit. You can't even crap in a toilet.

Listen dimwit, the operation was only a month old, and the media blew it, not the CIA.

Second, Wasn't it you that was telling us the information was 3 years old? Your a bonafied idiot.

It's unfortunate that the media blew cover, and another reason to restrict them. But your assertions are so ****ing stupid it rediculous.

Your totally clueless.

Listen to you hyteria only a few days ago.

It was old information.

Now that they bust the whole thing open, it's Bush's fault for not letting more info fall into our hands.

Your a certifiable Dipshiat. When the cover is blown you move in on the suspects you dimwit. Your a moron. How many times do I have to tell you that your an ****ing moron?

Want me to repeat what happened once again?

Your not even coherent in modern day reality.

No matter how many names you can think of to call people, Mock - you're still wrong. The Bush administration, since it came to office, only responds to one thing: Politics. Every decision made by this administration is run through the Rove/Hughes bottleneck. They don't crap without thinking about the political ramifications. When the heat was on about this latest

alert, they leaked the name. Same ole, same ole. Easy to scapegoat the media (after all, they're just about useless wimps at this point in history), but not true this time.
