You said -- "This story seems more aimed at pushing a new book."
Well, then..., you've got the U.S. Government, the CIA and MI6 all promoting the same book. They all seem to think Osama bin Laden is still alive.
I have no idea where people come up with such strange ideas as bin Laden is dead. I suppose that their minds are so racked with confusion that someone like bin Laden can do so much -- that they *have to* proclaim him dead now -- no matter the fact that he's not.
He may be one of these days -- but he's not now. Our government doesn't think so. Britain's government doesn't think so. The reward is still out there for him. They're still *hunting* him. It's only in your own mind that he's dead.
Another note from G2 Bulletin --
MI6, Britain's secret intelligence service, has identified six Pakistani scientists working in Iran's nuclear bomb program who have been "advising al-Qaida on how to weaponize fissionable materials it has now obtained."
MI6 and the International Atomic Energy Agency believe the scientists have played a major role in enabling Iran to be "well advanced in providing uranium enriched materials for nuclear bombs," said Alexander Cirilovic, a nuclear terrorism expert in Paris.
Both high-level MI6 and CIA sources have confirmed the scientists would only have been allowed to assist al-Qaida with the authority of Iran's unpredictable President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
The revelation comes at a time when Washington has increased pressure on Tehran to give up its nuclear weapons program.
The scientists worked for Dr. A.Q. Khan, the "father of the Islamic bomb," who is now under house arrest in Pakistan after confessing he had provided both Iran and North Korea with details of how to make their own nuclear bombs.
Keep fantasizing on his death. It hasn't happened yet...
