ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Fugitive Saudi terrorist-sponsor Osama bin Laden is now known to have nuclear weapons, putting to rest previous speculation that left the possibility open, according to a weekly intelligence newsletter.

A report published in this week’s Geostrategy-Direct.com newsletter, edited in part by Washington Times staffers Bill Gertz and Robert Morton, indicated that bin Laden's possession of nuclear devices "is no longer a doubt."

"Saudi billionaire fugitive Osama bin Laden has nuclear weapons. The question is how many," the report said.

Gertz told WND he didn't write the assessment, but that the newsletter's primary editor, Morton, had a stringer in the Mideast who verified the information. Morton was out of his office and could not be reached for comment.

"Russian intelligence sources who are fighting bin Laden members in Chechnya believe [he] has a handful of tactical nuclear weapons," said the report. "Arab intelligence sources say the Al Qaida head has as many as 20 weapons."

Al Qaida is the name of the terrorist group bin Laden leads."

MY OPINION - I sincerely doubt that UBL is alive; HOWEVER his hateful spirit of evil lives on and all that it encompasses.

Do these nukes still exist? I don't know. So, where are these nukes? I don't know.

Look, that story about OBL having nuclear weapons is two years old. Is there an update or correction here, or is this just a rehash of an unsubstantiated story?

Appreciate any hard info on this.
