Can't we get, like, a little serious here?

This article says:

[The] head of Germany's international counter-terrorism unit... told a meeting of the German-Atlantic Society in Berlin last week that Abu Musab Zarqawi, an al Qaeda leader trained in the use of toxins, could be planning an attack in Europe.

Zarqawi, a Jordanian, has been sentenced to death in his own country for planning bombings. He is believed to have traveled extensively since the Sept. 11 attacks, including in Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Syria, Lebanon and Turkey, European officials said. He is believed to have carried a poisonous substance disguised as an ointment into Turkey... He said the information was based in part on interrogation of al Qaeda suspects captured in Arab countries after visiting Europe in recent months.

Let's say there's something called the KGB or the Stasi. We find him and they or some other proxy takes care of him. Or neutralizes him in some other perhaps even less savory way, such as kidnapping his whole family or clan.

The Bulgarians or the Turks would seem to be able to help out here.
