Al-Libi Behind Cheney Assassination Attempt...

Senior al-Qaeda lieutenant Abu Laith al-Libi, has been fingered as the mastermind of the unsuccessful attempt to kill VP Cheney....

Fox News:

A Libyan Al Qaeda commander was likely behind the suicide bombing that killed 23 people outside the main U.S. base in Afghanistan during a February visit by U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, a U.S. military official told The Associated Press.

Abu Laith al-Libi, who was featured in an Al Qaeda video last week, is believed to have trained bombers at terror camps, including one busted by U.S. forces in the eastern province of Khost in 2005, said Maj. Chris Belcher, a spokesman for the U.S.-led coalition in Afghanistan.
