Adam Gadahn was arrested by Pakistani intelligence agents in the city of Karachi. This is a huge victory for the good guys in this war, Gadahn was known by several aliases and held a high position in al-Qaida, which is especially rare given that he was born in California.
Ghadan has been in Pakistan since 1998, attended al-Qaida training camps there and has been on the FBI most wanted list since 2004. Ghadan has served as a translator and consultant for al-Qaida in his time there. In 2006 Ghadan became the first American in over 50 years to be charged with treason.
By arresting Ghadan, the Pakistani government has shown that it is willing to cooperate fully with the United States government and our allies. This is a very good thing as it is crucial in this war against the insurgents.
