If I were as smart as he is, I would get new body guards and send my old ones out so that everyone else thinks I'm dead.
But, then again, if I thought of something that smart, he's probably thought of something smarter.

P.S. But here's to hope

I've got to develop the photos first / get a Kodak PhotoCD and then upload all of it to my web site. I'll probably have it all ready for your viewing pleasure by the end of August.

He's "Bin Deaded" for some time now, since the last week of October at least.

He's dead.

Compare the press/media releases b/f we dropped all that TNT to those after. Its pretty clear he's done for. Hiding serves him and his cause no real purpose (other than buying more time eating dirt and living in a stinking cave with a bunch of other stinky, half starved guys that haven't been laid in a long long time).

Would he really have anything to live for, post 9/11? Nope. I believe he (Bin Laden) is dead, committed his part in mardyrdom and is now just "dust in the wind". The only thing I'm certain of, if that he would have engineered a quite quick and painless death.

Just because you got the body guards dosent mean hes dead, he has more then 1 set of body guards...like the secret service, its not always the same 2 guys behind bush. Also even if bin laden is dead his followers will carry on and we have to fight that.

I agree he's dead and have said that in the threads here in O/T for quite a while...........................even before binny boy was quite frequently making videos on being taped almost monthly by some media source and now nothing since last Dec. or so................he's dead but either we know it and don't want to "martyrize" him..............or they know it but don't want the world to know we succeeded in offing him...................

If they admitted he was dead in December everyone would have expected the troops home by now. By theorizing he's alive it brings a need to keep the troops in Afghanistan, not that it wouldn't be important. Its all about the politics of deploying troops in the post-Cold War era.

My gut agrees, but I think maybe the December ToraBora timeframe. Constantly having other people come out and say 'we are going to strike again, Bin Laden will be on video soon' but no new Bin Laden video's certainly doesn't fit hi MO. Bear in mind this was a sick guy who needed regular kidney dialysis. Not the kind of thing easy to do in a war zone.

To add to that thought..............I don't know about you, but myself having been Marine Corp., I'm thinking also about the possibility that they want to keep them in the area for possible redeployment to Iraq......................see the headline yesterday where Kuwait claims Saddam is massing troops at their border again.................;)

I've thought bin Hidin has bin Ded for months now; since about March when we hadn't heard from him for so long. People say he's clever but I don't buy it. I just don't believe his ego could let him be this silent for this long.

If anything, he would want to thumb his nose at the U.S. and let the world know that he's outsmarted the Americans by remaining alive despite the attacks and overthrow of the Taliban. He gains nothing by silence and gains a lot by releasing more propoganda tapes.

I think you can refer to him by his new name of Osama bin Buried Under a Pile of Rubble.

Bin Laden is driving a yellow taxi cab in Manhattan. There are literally THOUSANDS of men of Arab/Indian (the average white person cannot tell the diff b/t an Arab and an Indian...trust me, I used to live there) decent living in NYC. He would blend in perfectly. He would live in a neighborhood that had just as many people of his race as his homeland overseas. They hide him and treat him like a demigod.

Tens of times, on a daily basis, he ferries rich white men from the Wall Street area past the site where the World Trade Center once stood. He smiles smugly as he passes by this slient tomb where so many Amercians died. He smiles even more smugly when said white guy passenger pays the fare and gives him a nice tip too boot.

Oh yeah, he's alive. And God help him when we catch him.

I won't believe he is dead until I see his head on a pike. Honestly, he is smart, only an idiot would show himself right now. So if he hasn't been killed, it is very possible that he will remain in hiding for quite some time. And until I see some proof of his death, I will continue staying on the fence regarding it.

People are saying that the U.S President sent their Armys there for other reasons.
And I think that U.S is #1 in many ways. They have no problem for locating the drug dealers..
the criminals .. they can easily arrest them and put them in jail..how come it takes to many people (the soliders) and so much of the money to get the Bin Laden person.. and this process is still on for almost one year already.. it's a lot of manpower and money in this catching this one middle aged man.. sometimes i don't understand..
Can somebody explaine more to me? cuz personaly I don't really think that the U.S president sent his soliders there to Middle East are really for catching that one little middle aged laden..
