Talk:Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti

Notable

This is CLEARLY very notable. He was also clearly a notable al-Queda figure as was implicated far beyond "one event". If we have article on every Guantanamo detainee, Osama's close assistant mostly certainly is notable in its own right. If you have a problem with this take it to AFD. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:23, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

If he had an ongoing role of some significance, then this is a worthwhile article. People will look for more info when they read about the 5/11 raid. SeoMac (talk) 21:34, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Personally I think harboring the most wanted man in the world for several years constitutes as an "ongoing role". Leading the US to bin Laden's location would be another significant fact and also (read link in next section) apparently he trained the 9/11 hijackers in the use of computers. I think a article is called for. I also think that the media will dig up more on him as the weeks and months pass. We may end up seeing an actual photo of him and some more biography. I think deleting this now is a mistake. I think there is a lot of interest in finding out who he was and what his full role was and I think some of those details will emerge.--Ishtar456 (talk) 22:42, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

I don't think that photo is him

I saw that photo at http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/al-qaeda/8489866/WikiLeaks-Bin-Ladens-courier-trained-911-hijack-team.html and concluded that it was of Guantanamo detainee Muhammad Mani al-Qahtani NOT Abu Ahmed Al-Kuwaiti. Please double check.--Ishtar456 (talk) 00:20, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Muhammad Mani al-Qahtani is File:Mohammed al Quahtani.jpg. They are not the same person but this isn't him either, you're right.♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:20, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

He killed Osama? Really?

What to make of this line in the opening: "Who probably killed Osama bin Laden in line with his will to avert his capture"? What is that all about? IZAK (talk) 09:57, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

This is NOT his real name; it's an assumed name.

The article ought not suggest it's his actual name but indicate that ALL names are made-up. See Death of Osama bin Laden article. Actual source: The accumulating intelligence about Mr. Kuwaiti persuaded C.I.A. officials to stay on his trail, leading to the discovery of his real name — which American officials have not disclosed — and whereabouts.
