TTP leader ‘Hakimullah Mehsud dead’

He is dead , then He's not , maybe just wounded , NO he is o.k , and in charge !
So like the saying goes "War is deceit" , Hakimullah , was most likely killed ( If he really is dead ) in the gun fight that ensued after Baitullah was killed !
Awesome news if true !
And now Pakistan is going forward with their plans to clear south waziristan ? Did they not just say they were backing off a little bit ?

ISLAMABAD: The security forces believe the new Taliban Commander Hakimullah Mehsud is already dead and Taliban in order to save their image are giving the impression that he is alive.

A private TV channel, citing intelligence sources, said it was Hakimullah’s brother who gave the interview to BBC some days ago.

Hakimullah Mehsud’s look-alike brother was specially summoned from Afghanistan to head the banned Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan on a temporary basis while a decision to appoint the new chief was taken by Taliban leader Mullah Omar.

The security forces also said the Taliban declared Hakimullah Mehsud as their new chief to prove their top leadership is still alive. Sources said, the security forces are finalizing preparation to launch a massive offensive against the Taliban in South Wazirisitan.
