Oops, That will teach me, (again,) to read the rest of a thread before posting.
The ElvisBinLaden Award had already been presented (to Jim) in a previous post.

He is, he may be, he isn't dead... Until conclusive proof that he's DEAD is shown to the world then I'll believe he's alive.

I personally think that Bin is blowin in the wind, in bitty little fragments, having long ago taken a direct hit from a very large bomb, and that any eyewitnesses to this event are also blowin, and that you will never see conclusive proof.

Did you read the article? They point out that there may now be 200-300 'master planners' still on the loose and they're going to follow them around the country.

Sure, they don't want the U.S. involved. That's natural. But they seem to want to do the job right. That's a good thing.

And I don't trust any government, especially a muslim one.

He's not dead, he's simply taken on the form of a thickly congealed bloody mass.

He's getting better....really...

OBL is really in a guest house at Camp David, enjoying margaritas and following the campaigns

Hasn't Osama released an audio tape since our invasion of Iraq, where he specifically mentioned "Iraq"? I thought I remembered he had and that it had been authenticated.

If he is dead he's died since then.

We have to assume he is still alive. We have to continue to look for him until we know for sure.

He's dead. This proud, cocky peacock would not be able to keep quiet this long if he was still breathing.

Geraldo assured me Osama escaped from Tora Bora. Since then, I have heard W, Cheney, Condi, Rummy and General Myers say the odds are he is still alive (their best guess based on the info). I believe they believe their statements.

I have leaned toward his being dead, but have left room in my thinking for his being alive.

Osama may be alive, Osama may be dead (I happen to believe the latter); what is known is he isn't doing a whole lot of leading (something he had been doing from the 1980s up 'till December 2001).

So OBL is in Hog Heaven...

Great News! If OBL is dead I won $100.00 from my Democratic friend who believes President Bush has captured him and will show OBL in the per verbal October Surprise.

Water Cooler Bets:

Funny thing, I just made that bet yesterday and since the other office Democrats are feeling better about sKerry I doubled up on all of their action.

As far as OBL alive or dead, he's alive.

OBL's alive, he's just retired.

We have video and audio, CIA vetted, from post Tora Bora, and have captured people who've been in touch with him as late as late 2002. We have intercepted telephone calls made to Bin Laden as late as early 2003, and are aware of specific meetings with him as late as April 2003.

He stopped making videos when the Muslim world asked him to, because his sagging eyebags and green face (results of probably being wounded at Tora Bora) wasn't fitting the poster boy for terror image.

Zawahiri is a little more active, call him CEO with Bin Laden as Chairman of the Board.

Operational control has devolved to Bin Laden's son, Saad Bin Laden and his deputy, Saif al Adel, both based in Iran, who cooperate closely with Rafsanjani, VEVAK, IRGC, Qods and Hezbollah leaders, and who have staged numerous successful and failed attacks from Iran.

I've lost count how many times this cat has died. His head on a stick won't stop his followers.

Remind me of the significance of December 13, 2001.

Meanwhile, most analysts believe there is a danger in laying too much emphasis on al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden alone when the reality of growing terrorism is more complex - and perhaps more dangerous.

He's dead. If the media is downplaying his importance, either they have him or he's dead.
