' Similarly, the administration announced the arrest in Pakistan of a senior
al-Qaeda operative, Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani, wanted for organizing the 1998
suicide bombings of the U.S. embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam, on the
third day of the Democratic convention, and three weeks after the The New
Republic weekly quoted Pakistani intelligence officials as saying the White
House had asked them to announce the arrest or killing of any "high-value
[al-Qaeda] target" any time between July 26 and 28, the first three days of
the Democratic Convention. At the time, former CIA officer Robert Baer said
the announcement made "no sense." "To keep these guys off-balance, a lot of
this stuff should be kept in secret. You get no benefit from announcing an
arrest like this." '

It's not like it's the first time that the Bush administration has
outed a US intelligence operative, after all.
