Two Stories I Never Thought I'd See, much less in one day.

Saudi Arabia Arrests Suspects Linked to Al-Qaeda Planning Terror Attacks (WaPo-AP) (or Saudi Arabia Arrests Al Qaeda Terror Suspects (NYT-Reuters)), and Key Figure in Sept. 11 Plot Held in Secret Detention in Syria (WaPo).

There's also the story about Pakistan detained US nationals. The story is at the NYT site here. The dominant media culture (see below) seems concerned that the detainees haven't been checked up on by the State Department.
