Al-Qaeda Third in Command is "Running Terror Cells in the UK and U.S."
(Telegraph-UK) Massoud Ansari - Pakistani intelligence officials believe a Libyan, Abu Faraj al Libbi, once bin Laden's personal assistant, took over as third in command of al-Qaeda when Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was captured last year. "Coded messages deciphered recently have revealed to us that he was not only coordinating pre-election terrorist acts in the U.S., but had sent several messages to several militants in the UK in the last eight to 10 months...to share notes with them about future terror attacks in the UK," said an investigator who has seen the communications.
