Bin Laden Dead?
or in Pak custody. Press report:

A sensational NNN report on Saturday said Pakistan Information Minister Sheikh Rashid while addressing a Meet the Press at Karachi Press Club on the eve of third anniversary of September 11, 2001, said Osama bin Laden may have died while on the run. He, however, pointed out that around 200-300 foreign militants were hiding in Wana who are "master planners" as they had got enough training in Afghanistan.

Earlier this week, a Russian site, Profindpages.com, reported that Pakistani security forces have captured Osama bin Laden.

He was captured not far from Chitral in the Northern part of Pakistan (between Chitral and Peshawar), in the first week of August. the site said.

Two "top al-Qaeda operatives" are being held in Pakistan and one of them is is believed to be Osama.

The capture of the "Big Fish" will not be officially announced until sometime next month, in what is sure to be "Headline" news throughout the world, the site said quoting US sources.

6. I do too.
That's why command wouldn't let our troops into Tora Bora when they had him cornered so he got away. For all we know, BushCo may have provided him with safe passage as well. The whole affair really stinks.

7. Yet, somehow, the terror attacks continue
Do we really think it's going to stop once Bin Laden is captured? If he ever is?

I still think they're releasing stuff like this just to throw the Dems off guard.

9. Nah...we now know that bin Ladens are protected and he more than
the others. I want to believe that he boarded the flight out under the protection of the U.S. because it fits together with what we're learning.
