Either he is waiting to see how the war turns out before he opens his yap and sticks his foot in it (same reason Hillary's book is 'late')
Or he's dead.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THOSE 3 BIG SHIPS AMBLING AROUND THE HIGH SEAS AVOIDING ACCOUNTABILITY OF ANY KIND--PRESUMED TO HAVE IRAQ'S WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION???
It seems to me Al Qaeda would be happy to take charge of those and spread all kinds of death far and wide.
Lord, God, PLEASE cause those ships to be taken over by responsible American forces.

Osama has been very close-mouthed at least since Tora Bora and I don't think he has actually said anything since the first action in Afghanistan.

Hopefully BOTH of them are frying in hell right now, while cavorting with their own personal 72 Helen Thomasi virgins.

The only effective spokesman for Osama bin Laden would be Jonathan Edwards.

"WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THOSE 3 BIG SHIPS AMBLING AROUND THE HIGH SEAS AVOIDING ACCOUNTABILITY OF ANY KIND--PRESUMED TO HAVE IRAQ'S WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION??" I don't know either. What happened to the two guys caught at the Mexican border with a couple million dollars to fund terrorist activities?

Anybody here, seen my old fiend Saddam, can you tell me where he's gone?
He killed a lotta people, and it seems the good, they die young, you know, I just look around and they're gone.
Saddam--Osama--bin gone.
Didn't you hate the things they stood for?
Didn't they try to kill you & me?
And we'll be free, some day soon,
it's gonna be one day.
Saddam--Osama--bin gone.

I agree. Have wondered about those characters and X others like them unknown yet.
I hope some responsible people are following up on these hazardous situations.

"Perhaps, his men are preparing large-scale attacks on the rear of the US forces, on bases or aircraft carriers. OBL seems to prefer killing inocent civilians.

There ain't no suitcase nukes, no smallpox, no more hijacked airliners.
These rats are scared to death. All they're peddlin' now is fear.

I agree, 'spur'. -- There ain't no suitcase nukes, no smallpox, no more hijacked airliners.
The question now becomes:
Exactly which rats are scared to death, -- because they're peddlin' all this fear?

Osama's Accomplishments
Afghanistan
- Overthrow of the Taliban (the most perfect Muslim government)
- Introduction of Democracy into Afghanistan.
- Relative peace in Afghanistan for the first time in 20+ years.
- Massive casualties of Taliban and Muslim Jihad fighters.
- Destruction of terrorist camps
- Destruction of cave networks used by terrorists
- Loss of major ammunition stockpiles
Pakistan
- Government crack down on extreme teachings in Masdras
- Government crack down on Al Qaeda groups operating out of Pakistan
- General denunciation of Terrorist activity
- Democratic elections held in Pakistan (may or may not be related, but I think it speeded up the timetable)
Iraq
- Overthrow of Saddam
- Introduction of Democracy in Iraq
- American increasingly seen as good in Middle East.
- Disruption of Iraqi financial and logistical support for AlQaeda and Palestinian terrorists.
Iran
- Now surrounded by democracies on either side.
- Government stability already questionable.
Saudi Arabia
- Identification of dirty dozen financial supporters of AlQaeda
- US now critical of Saudi Arabia Human Rights record.
Israel
- Palestinian suicide bombers no longer viewed as sympathically in the world
- Israel has freer hand in crushing Terrorist organizations
- Bush more committed to establishment of a Palestinian state.
- Bush also committed to democracy without Arafat governing a palestinian state.
The West
- UN has been shown to be a debating society.
- Increased tensions between US and France, Germany, & Russia
- US completely over vietnam complex. Willing to use force when justified.
- US still leading massive coalition of nations.
- Negative effect on stock markets, but not the crash that Osama had hoped for.
