step backward 5 steps on one foot, turn around, say the magic work, drink a cup full of panther urine real fast then recite all of Ibsen's works backwards. Then and only then will they have tied up the loose ends.
I find it interesting that, only a few weeks ago they went from, "we really don't have any idea where he is" to "now we know where he is".
So let me try and untangle this latest bit on the spin machine tour.
See for a long time they were saying they didn't know where the hell 0sama was. They kept repeating it. Now it appears that that had a negative effect on the publics impression of the war in Iraq and moron*. "How can I trust a prez that doesn't even know how to find Osama and is terrible at the Iraq war?"
Now they are saying, "we know right were he is, we have know all along, infact we know the apt number he's staying in", but they just can't get to him. They torture prisoners, they invade a country based on lies, the kill 100,000+ Iraqi people but now they can't get to where Osama is because of "technical reasons"???? WTF????
More bullshit. Basically, I can give you their answer, Osama is on earth. There you go. And I bet you anything he's in Pakistan.
Look at the reality of the situation. During this whole fucked up war on terror, we have been told time and time again not to go into Pakistan by the Pakistani gov't. If we did, it would piss off the locals, probably have Musarrif(sp) dead and nuts in charge of Pakistan's nukes.
On one of my very first posts in DU, I stated, "if you really wanted to fight terror, and you want to have an axis of evil, they should be the following nations: Pakistan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia". All repressive countries, all manufacturing terrorists. They repress their population, the population feels helpless to rise up to their home gov't so they take out their frustrations and all their problems on us. They are partly correct. We keep these gov'ts going, with our money, support of oil and weapons. Want to solve the terror issue? Stop the money to the gov't and make sure it goes to non gov't agencies that help feed and clothe the poor, stop buying their oil and create a real alt fuel program here, and lastly, stop selling them weapons! Duh.
