COMMANDER Ahmad Shah Massoud, known as the Lion of Panjshir, was killed on September 9, 2001, in his camp at Khwaja Bahauddin, two days before the September 11 attacks on Washington, DC, and New York. Steve Coll, in Ghost Wars, describes Massoud as a poet, a military genius, a religious man, and a leader of enormous courage who defied death and accepted its inevitability.
