February 24, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - The Pentagon has dispatched the elite commando force that hunted down Saddam Hussein to Afghanistan for a new operation aimed at getting Osama bin Laden, officials said yesterday. Military sources confirmed that members of the shadowy Task Force 121, the unit that conducted the high-tech search for Saddam and his henchmen, have recently begun operating in the remote mountainous region along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border where bin Laden and key al Qaeda and Taliban fugitives are believed to be hiding. The Task Force is made up of highly trained Delta and SEAL commandos, as well as CIA paramilitary operators. It operates outside normal military channels.

>>>In Washington, metro subway platforms were cleared of fixtures that officials thought could be hiding places for bombs. Officials removed trash cans, newspaper recycling bins and newspaper sales boxes.
I hoped they looked around the Ceiling Air Ducts.

That person signed on just to post that.
That was when we were all watching EOM's message board.
I advise to take that with a grain of salt since we know nothing about that freeper and she has not posted since.

It is unfortunate for the dolphins....but how many other divers were killed? Only one washed up....and he may have dropped his diving gear due to the disorientation. Hence is why he washed up.

No wonder that I couldn't email you last night, I still spell Cat as c-a-t-.......LOL
There was a lady electrocuted in Las Vegas about a year ago.
She stepped on a metal electric box in the path or by one.
I think that it might have been a casino sidewalk.
Didn't think that I needed to store that memory, so have only a slight recall of it. Need a larger memory bank.

With his royal racist evilness, he spews evil, pablum and hatred, just like his evil jihadi brothers
Not a brother. The Arab First Tiered Muslims actually think he is a 'rock star' rather than an Arab Brother.
In other words, he is useful to their cause. He would not be invited to dwell in the 'Arab Tent'.

Actually Indie, the Islamic Religion is very subject to hijacking since there is no ultimate translation.
I've read 4 different translations of it. I'm no personal fan of any. The point though is since M.E. is kept is a 3rd world status....and classes of the population is kept illerate, it is a powerful brainwashing tool.
An ultimate translation and leader would eliminate the 'go blow yourself up for Allah' part.
Have you noticed the recent splintering of Christianity over the past decade or so? Have you ever read any of the 'new and retranslated' bibles?
I've read several. I would never know they were translated from my King James.
