Osama hiding in Karakoram range: Report
Source: Times of India

27 May 2008, 1606 hrs IST,PTI

ISLAMABAD: Al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden is hiding in the "rooftop of the world", the Karakoram section of the Himalayan range along Pakistan's borders with Afghanistan and China, a media report has claimed. ( Watch )

The Central Investigation Agency (CIA) of the US has located bin Laden in the "rooftop of the world", the area of Pakistan that borders Afghanistan to the west, in particular the chain of mountains in the province of Nurestan, and China to the north, Arabic television network Al-Arabiya quoted unidentified sources as saying.

The Pakistan government has for long denied that bin Laden is hiding in its territory.

The Dubai-based network reported that US security and military officials had a top-level meeting at a military base in Qatar's capital Doha to plan an operation to hunt for bin Laden a few days ago.

"bin Laden? I'm not really interested anymore. I've got more important vacationing to do out at the Imperial Pig Farm.

"Besides, my intimate Saudi oil cronies, the bin Laden clan, don't really want me messing with their boy-o. Smirk."

7. Bush will get him in October -- or if he is dead close his camp
That is how the Republicans plan to win in November, and we should be prepared for that kind of Johnny-come-lately show. This whole spectacle was meant to keep the chill on American speech and frighten ordinary Americans just long enough to allow the Republican "leadership" the time to carry off the biggest heist in history -- theft of the wealth of the American people and its transfer to offshore corporate headquarters.

We been robbed. It will take years just to collect the fingerprints.

8. "The Central Investigation Agency (CIA) of the US "
Now there is some quality press work. The most (in)famous of the world's intelligence agencies has its name misrepresented. Quality like that just must be taken seriously :sarcasm:

9. I thought the CIA had declared he was on dialysis?...
He sure does get around (and lives) for being on dialysis so long, under such rugged circumstances. He surely isn't in some plush hospital suite...somewhere handy?

17. Was...
No doubt the Bushes have sent a team to hide him once again because if they kill him, it will set off a firestorm and if they capture him and take him to trial, well, suffice it to say they had good reason to have Saddam Hussein hanged before he was tried for the gassing of the Kurds. With our gas.

In all probability Osama bin Laden is probably traveling freely throughout the Arab world. He is considered a hero by quite a few. Particularly now that the world has seen us for what we are.

20. This U.S. bogeyman
seems to have lost his ability to terrorize. It may be because he died in December 2001.
