"A senior Taliban figure, Amir Khan Muttaqi, said that 10,000 soldiers had been rushed to the Afghan border with Uzbekistan and that Taliban forces would cross into Uzbekistan if that Muslim country cooperated in any U.S.-led attack."

Perfect, Amir! Thanks for sharing that information! They'll be an easy target.

Sounds like a U-2 doing some last minute confirmations. You can bet the military is setting coordinates RIGHT NOW. My guess is after the President's "Day of Prayer" scheduled for the 11th.

Osama bin Laden has no more than 2,000 trained fighters, an Islamist who trained a senior leader of the Saudi-born militant's al Qaeda organization said in remarks published on October 6, 2001. However, "a war to destroy al Qaeda or capture its leader bin Laden could take many years,' said Abdullah Anas, an Algerian Islamist and leader of the so-called Arab Afghans who fought against Soviet troops in Afghanistan.

Dark o' the moon too.

Before we start the LLSS stuff, I think even the dummies in the Taliban are aware that time period is high risk.

And ya know what, judging from what we've seen, we could send 'em a time schedule for attack and still blow their turbans off.

Could be disinformation ... and, you know what? It doesn't matter. We can see their troop movements from the air and from satellites.

``Whatever we do, we will never hand over Osama,'' said Hizbullah, a 16-year-old religious student in Peshawar. ``If Americans attack Afghanistan, nothing would make me happier than to kill them. If I saw one after that had happened, I wouldn't hesitate for a moment.''

Kid, you'd last about 2 seconds when the Army Rangers, Green Berets, and SEALs come streaming over the border and cut your throat. It's easy to be brave until you have to face real threats.

My heart breaks for CHILDREN this age. These kids have been brought up to HATE. They are too young to die.

Please, Lord, thy will be done. Help us to understand.

The regime offered to release eight aid workers, including two Americans, if Washington stopped its threats and began negotiations.

Afghan authorities also announced they would unconditionally release British journalist Yvonne Ridley, 43, who was arrested last month inside Afghanistan with two Afghan guides.

The Bush administration is in no mood for compromise.

I love the smell of panic in the morning.

Somebody went out of their way to make the numbers look big. Tanks and pickup trucks count the same as do fighters and light planes.

Could some one put a big red star on that organ looking piece sticking out to the north east and mark bin Ladin for us?
