June 5,
2008: The FBI has undertaken another
advertising campaign in Pakistan, using matchbook covers, posters and other
media to remind people in the tribal territories that rewards of up to five
million dollars are being offered for prominent al Qaeda members. In addition
to the cash rewards, "relocation (to another country, for the tipster and
immediate family) is available". At least half a dozen al Qaeda big shots have
been caught this way, and rewards paid. This time around, an American al Qaeda
member (Adam Yahiye Gadahn), who often appears in English language al Qaeda
videos, is also sought. Gadahn has a million dollars on his head. The
proliferation of cell phone use in the tribal areas (on both sides of the
border) is expected to make it easier for tipsters to make contact.
