Come on... this story would never remain covered up from Oct. 16th until Oct. 24th. It's a lie.
Besides, I have a news story that says Usama is in a hideout in China proteced by uniformed armed guards (Pakistani with M16s).

Thank you for the report. What I find interesting is the amount of detail in it. False reports of this sort are typically sketchy, no? Disinformation too, prefers rumour mongering...

Bodies with fingerprints & teeth intact; or no dice. IIRC, we have tissue samples from bin Laden's mother, so we can do a DNA test. As long as we get enough to insure that the person it came from is dead, the mDNA matches, and it couldn't be a sibling, he's IDd.

More "wild speculation"...Delta Force, dressed as Taliban or terrorists, wiped out those guarding the hideout, waited for Osama, Omar et al to show up, blasted them & gave the bodies to the CIA. We have them. We have a plan how, when etc. to use this. Story could be an enemy plant to explain away their deaths at our hand. Orrrrr...A plant by us for some purpose?????

Just think, if he is dead, who is CNN going to interview. One of the many doubles? CNN will try real hard to make us believe it really is bin Laden. It really, really is bin laden. Poor CNN, just lost there chance to over take Fox as most watched cable news. CNN will be the only ones mad if this is true.

When I read stories like this, I feel the need to call in "the authority".

Eight Days ago? The only reason "friendlies" would knock off Osama and Omar would be to stop the US bombing and possibly save their own necks.
If someone had knocked off Osama and Omar to stop US bombing and end the attacks, why wouldn't they make the information public?

Much of the Taleban's communication abilities within Afghanistan have been destroyed. Rumors that bin Laden and his one eyed buddy, putt-putt, are dead will be hard for the Taleban to combat. I like the touch of his be killed by his own men.

"and it couldn't be a sibling" Ah, there's the rub. Aren't there 54 siblings? How many are male?
To: AmericanInTokyo
Has a certain air of legitimacy to it, which is encouraging. But of course it means nothing until a body is presented.
Also, Zawahiri has to go too. In fact, unless we get Zawahiri, al-Quaeda is still completely open for business.

"The same as the source article, lol" See if you can paste it into Notepad, then copy from Notepad. That will generally strip away any non-ASCII attributes (presuming it's legible in Notepad).
