Another day, another victory over a suspected terrorist leader. Haji Mali Khan, a senior militant in the terrorist Haqqani network, has been captured in Afghanistan. He was detained during an operation by Afghan and coalition forces, and reportedly did not resist despite being heavily armed. He is the uncle of the network's leader, Siraj Haqqani.

Mike Mullen accused Pakistan's spy agency of helping the network.
