Funny thing. Remember that story from earlier in the month about a "July Surprise" which suggested that the U.S. had been pressuring Pakistan to capture high-level al Qaida targets during the last week of the month? Well...
LONDON (Reuters) - Pakistan has arrested a senior al Qaeda figure with a bounty of up to $25 million on his head, Interior Minister Makhdoom Faisal Saleh Hayat told CNN television Thursday.

He said the suspect had been captured during a raid in central Pakistan a few days ago. He did not identify the captive but said he was "a person who is most wanted internationally."

Jeez. What a coincidence.
