Yeah, I read a similar story somewhere today. Thanks for posting this. Sooner or later it'll be in someone's interest to get rid of him if we don't get him first. These Afghan guys are notorious side switchers. Just ask the Russians.

Osama bin Laden will probably be betrayed by an Afghan who will lead allied forces to the world's most wanted man, the Ministry of Defence claimed today. Sir Michael Boyce, Britain's chief of defence, said the current aerial bombardment would probably "flush out" Bin Laden - and if that failed someone would inform on him.

A reward is no good to someone if they are killed trying to earn it. That's one of the limiting factors of using bounties to get to bin Laden. And that is why it will take ground forces - an informer will be able to come forward and survive the experience, and the Special Forces will have the pleasure of arranging an early meeting between bin Laden and Allah.

I hope so, it seems his own siblings are at least in public disowning him. For $5 million, it won't take long for someone to betray him, plus they'd prove they were on the side of Good.

Unlike us, consistent bombing will make the resolve of the Afghans diminish. Right.

History teaches us that somebody, sometime will sell him out be it for money, power or to settle old debts.

If we do get him alive, he needs to fall down a long flight of stairs. Otherwise we'll have to bring his slimey carcass to America.

Actually, bin Laden went to a fortune teller and asked what day he would die. The fortune teller told him he would die on an American holiday. He asked which one.

"Oh, that doesn't matter. The day YOU die is going to BECOME an American holiday!"

Usama bin Clinton was reported hiding in hardened underground bunkers, his sacred buttocks lip moistened and protected by his elite media bodyguards, including Mohammed Rivera and Mustafa Gumbal.

But who, oh who will be the betrayer?

There is a 5 million dollar pricetag on his head. Of course, someone will turn him in.
