osama bin laden

[RobCur]

still alive? we're so focused on hussein that he is no longer in the picture or a criminal. I smell something very fishy, this guy maybe just a mercenary who gets paid what he does. btw, terrorism is evil :roll:

 

[Tab]

Thanks.

 

[vladbot]

btw, hussein is captured we are now focusing on al queda and iraq, but good point, whatever happened to osama and the fight in afganistan?

 

[alchemize]

So has this forum become "post your deep thought of the day?"

 

[MidasKnight]

I think osama is dead. But I don't think the US will find the body to prove it.

I've been out-smarted by this one...

terrorism isn't evil.. interesting perspective.. so, what is evil? America?

yea, thought so.

 

[Genesys]

maybe its an elaborate ploy by the US to get osama to show his ugly mug out in public again so we can nab him!

hey, if the libs can make hair brained conspiracy theories, why cant I?

Because in their case it'd be "we jus wanna hep' yew!" and in yours it would have to be because "Bush lied!". See the difference?

partisanship?

 

[Format C:]

No, partisanship doesn't even begin to explain it. Its so far beyond partisanship thats its scary.

 

[Infohawk]

Osama may be used, like Saddam, to get a spike with the populace. But Bush would have to time it really close to make him win the election. And knowing how incompetent he is, he will not be able to pull it off.

everyone is alwase misundersetimating him.

Why worry about him? The true Terrorist was caught last December hiding in an ICBM Silo.

The hunt for Osama has not slowed, just because you haven't been hearing about it doesn't mean that we are not still hunting him down. Osama never left the picture, you just stopped looking at it.

Yeah, I hear OJ is still looking for the real killer too. Maybe he and George should get together on the links and look for the bad guys together.

He was being sarcastic, Saddaam was caught last December and instead of hiding in a ICBM silo along with his "WMDs" he was in a spider hole. Remember when the Bush administration convinced you that the War on Terror = War on Iraq?

Agreed. The issue is detouring to Iraq instead of keeping our resoures all focused on OBL and fighting terrorism.

Yes because as everyone knows the U.S. has only one car.

 

[chrisms]

The US has many resources, but not infinitely many, so it has to make choices on how to use those resources. If the resources spent on Iraq gave us more security than searching for OBL, hiring more sky marshalls and qualified airport screeners, and other possible security measures we could have had for $100+ billion and thousands of casualties, then Bush made the right choice. However, if we could've gotten more security for that huge cost by focusuing elsewhere than Iraq, then he made a terrible mistake.

thanks to iraq we are stretched thin, we are even having to take troops out of south korea to put them in iraq. and have spent 1/10th of a trillion dollars and counting.

if we had put similiar resources towards afghanistan, we'd have osama and all his spider-holes.

what are the troops doing in south korea? im pretty sure they're not the sole reason the north hasnt tried to invade again. the principal of MAD still applies.
