Reports: Osama bin Laden has been 'located'
The Spectator UK ^

Posted on 05/29/2008 12:37:19 PM PDT by mnehring

The Dubai-based satellite TV channel Al Arabiya is reporting that Osama Bin Laden has been “located” by US intelligence in the Kararakoram – a mountain range that spans the borders of Pakistan, the Kashmir and China (K2 is one of its peaks). There was a high-level meeting last week in Doha including General Petraeus, the recently-nominated Commander of US Central Command, and it is reasonable to speculate that – if there is truth to the report – it flows from this piece of intelligence. Whether the latest rumours about the tracking down of OBL have foundation will quickly become apparent. If they do have substance, Al Arabiya will have scored a huge world scoop – and have its rival Al Jazeera spitting nails.

I’m thinking President Bush’s great “up yours!” moment could be in taking Osama alive and leaving his prosecution (under Ms Pelosi’s emasculated laws) to the next administration. This is how we would really find out what they are made of.

Perhaps they meant to say “Kaka-Koran”.

Osama’s been working at a Shipley’s Donuts in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

“Hayden said capturing or killing bin Laden and his top deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri, remains a top priority, although he noted the difficulties in finding them in the remote region where the U.S. military is officially forbidden to operate, the Post reported. “

From CIA posting this morning on this forum
