US lies to public re: recent terror catch

After you read the article linked to above let me warn any reader that anything that comes out of the US Govoverntments mouth about the sitation in Iraq and the War on Terror^TM is likely false and is propaganda.

If You skipped the article I'll let Prof. Juan Cole sum it up:

Christina Lamb and Mohammad Shehzad in Islamabad suggest in the London Times that Abu al-Faraj al-Libi, arrested recently in Pakistan, is being confused with Anas al-Libi, a mastermind of the 1998 US embassy bombings in East Africa. Abu al-Faraj the Libyan, some observers suggest, is a third-tier al-Qaeda member largely known for involvement in recent plots to assassinate Pakistani Gen. Pervez Musharraf. Lamb and Shehzad go so far as to speculate that the US and the Pakistani governments are deliberately hyping the significance of the arrest to give the impression of great progress in the "war on terror."
