"What made him think he could take on the most powerful nation...?" Easy--for the past 8 years, at least, we have done nothing whenever Bin Laden-and-Company destroyed and/or terrorized America/Americans (WTC,1993; embassies, 1998; USS Cole, 2000; etc.). Given the American polls, media, and our complacency (sp?), he may have come to the right conclusion. Only trouble: we now have a real leader and a real man in the White House!!!

I think it's worth pointing out that if this report is true, we have him within an 80 square kilometer region. That would mean a region roughly 9 km by 9 km square, and that corresponds to a region less than 6 miles by 6 miles. Obviously, a lot room in which to hide, but on the other hand a whole lot smaller than, say, the Hindu Kush. Seems like his dream of meeting Allah is about to come true.

This is almost a "must."

I say, hang the MF's rotting corpse, from what's left of the World Trade Center, and let everyone take a gander at pure evil....Bin Laden, you're body is going to be used as excrement!

I find it interesting how Glover picks his "don't kill them" murderers. Does anyone recall him speaking up against executing McVey? I can't recall hearing anything out of him or any of the rest of his buddies who are against the death penality. I think that Glover should be forcibly thrown into the middle of the survivors of 9-11 and let him try to explain his way out of the crowd. What a scumbag.

Shoot, Dershowitz will try to convince the jury that OBL is innocent by reason of insanity. I think a good punishment for OBL is to take him to the stadium the Taliban use for executions, strip him naked and then let loose all the women of Afghanistan with baseball bats to chase him down and beat the livin' pulp outta him.

I am ever so sick of the pious Hollywood crowd pontificating on what the rest of us should tolerate, accept, not do, do, believe in, etc etc. Glover's such a peacenik, yet he has no qualms about playing a gun carrying, criminal shooting cop in the Lethal Weapon movies.

We should stuff and mount him, then dispay his carcass as a war trophy at the Pentagon. Along with ALL other terrorist enemies of America.

"the arrest of Ben Laden..." Yea right. They may make his heart stop but I doubt it will be called cardiac "arrest".

If it's true that there are 10 Osama look-alikes running around Afghanistan, how could anyone know if we get the real one??? Maybe it doesn't matter as long as we get one of them...

Simple. Kill them all. Let Allah sort them out.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that we have DNA samples from one or more of Osama bin "Deadman Walking" Laden's relatives and offspring, so when they find his body it can be matched.

If they kill him right away, how can he kiss Mike Moran's royal Irish ass?

"I wonder why he thought he could murder 5000+ Americans and get away with it. "

Because he's been murdering Americans since 1993 with impunity, courtesy of bin Billy Clinton. I guess like most liberals, he thought Gore won in 2000 too.

There's this substance called "DNA".

I say take all of these peaceniks spouting this crapola and let them tell it to the victims families, the firefighters, the police officers and the rest of the sane world that KNOWS right from wrong.

I would like to add that I think that Hollyweird should just be held incommunicado with the rest of the world for as long as it takes. I'm sick of their ______.
