We found sadaam in a hole, did we not?

Thats a poor comeback...

1)No one in his own country likes him
2)We invaded the entire country
3)We had a nice fat bounty on him

Osama "Been Deaded" for a long time. So many people want to believe he is alive.

Don't mistake the Taliban and Al Queda. They are mutually exclusive organizations with their own agendas.

I think its possible Osama has been captured or killed, but it will remain top secret and never be released. Capturing or killing him, and announcing it, would only cause more attacks and terrorist recruitment. Only one person in the world stands to benefit from public knowledge of Osama's capturing/death.

Now that I think about it, in terms of national security, it doesn't matter if Osama is dead or alive anymore. The US has done more to encourage Al Qaeda recruitment than Osama ever could.
