The Daily Mail reports that a British SAS team has captured two top Taliban commanders -- reported to be close confidants of Osama bin Laden -- near Babaji in Helmand province.
More details are sure to emerge in the coming days (i.e. Was the intel derived from the Abbottabad raid, or part of the ongoing decapitation campaign against the Taliban?) but any time members of the Quetta Shura can be taken out of the fight it is a good thing.
