Newsweek related article ping.

Note location of Kunar; bordering Pakistan and Pakistani Kashmir and not that far from Islamabad.

Osama says it's Fath-e-Islam. I say, by any other name it's still al-Qaeda, and I say...

HOW ARE YOU OSAMA! !
ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US.

Send in the drones and drop a swami-buster bomb!

It would seem unlikely that a meeting of any magnitude could be planned and attended without raising some flags in the intel community.

Methinks this is Islamocrap for local consumption. They make a living dispensing BS.

Now anybody can buy night-vision devices, brand new M-16s, fireproof jackets and trekking boots. Where? In the bazaar in Miram Shah, in the NWFP, close to the Afghani Paktia province, where the Americans have a base. The goods are all-American, captured from American casualties. Pashtuns swear that American casualties are mounting, although for the Pentagon they don't exist. Different sources in Peshawar and Islamabad confirm there are American casualties every week. Even now in the tribal areas there is a lot of talk on what happened in Helmand province last December - when 200 Americans were surrounded in a valley by only 37 Taliban, and many were slaughtered, with some beheaded. A humble porter of Shaheen Cargo confirmed the story at the time: he complained that his shoulders were sore because he had spent the night carrying coffins to a transport plane.

sounds unlikely.

[Cold Heat]

I agree. They will keep the SOB alive in stories until his martyrdom could be used for some purpose.

[swarthyguy]

It is an article from last year with the jihadi propaganda of greater losses than reported, but the parallels with the Newsweek piece of today are unsettling. Was this the new venue of the annual jihadi worldwide gathering of the elders?

[Jim Noble]

A Pashtun notable puts the issue succinctly, "If the Americans are serious about grabbing Osama, they will have to put up a fight. On the ground. Man to man. There will be a lot of body bags."

And you'll be in 'em, a**hole.

[denydenydeny]

Exterminate the brutes.

[dighton]

Sounds unlikely.

It's Pepe Escobar, in the same class as Weekly World News.

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

If Osama-yo-mama's still alive, how come we haven't had any new audio or video tapes from the scumbucket for some time? Things that make you go hmmmmmmm.....

[mountaineer]

Exactly. This is just wishful thinking, and pure propaganda. If Yo-Mama bin Lyin' were still alive, we would have been flooded with videotapes of his fugly mug.

[Uncle George]

The future news flash after the mushroom cloud disperses should read: Binny tries to assemble A bomb and OOOPS. Nuf Sed.

Another overly mouthy Pashtun clymer.
Where is hell will the Pashtuns find MEN to do their fighting?
Surely not amongst their women killing, boy child raping and lying cultist worshipers of evil....

The Pashtuns run a close second to the cockroaches of the PLO as being amongst the lowest forms of life on the planet...

Body bags? Hell, they won't need body bags to clean up their Pashtun corpses -- a sponge will do.

This is true. I've seen it with my own eyes. The really cool thing is that Elvis does two shows a week at the bazaar. The shows are packed so you have to call ahead.

Even now in the tribal areas there is a lot of talk on what happened in Helmand province last December - when 200 Americans were surrounded in a valley by only 37 Taliban, and many were slaughtered, with some beheaded.

No, humble porter, your shoulders are sore because of all the sh*t you've been shoveling to gullible reporters.
