I can't believe how many hand-wringers there are on this thread "If Bush does this the press will say that, and the dems will say that." So what? They're going to be against Bush no matter what he does, so the best thing to do is ignore them and their spin and conspiracy mongering and just do what's right.

...awaiting the order to go in and get him.

That sentence right there shows why this story is bogus. U.S. forces in the region have a standing order to capture bin Laden. This is like that bogus story about some JAG liuetenant vetoing a two-star general's order to hit bin Laden when he was in the crosshairs of a Predator drone armed with Hellfire missiles.

We probably are on the trail of bin Laden and will get him soon, but this particular story is fiction.

Show us physical evidence but tell us no stories. We don't believe what you say anymore; only what we see with our eyes!

Bin Laden was killed in the assault on the caves of Tora Bora. The Express is setting up Bush. They want the Democrats to be able to make his non-capture an issue for the election. "You have him surrounded, why won't you capture him?" They will tie his non-capture into some deal involving Cheney, Halliburton, Oil, and the Saudi Royals. It is a scripted set-up.

If Bin Laden is alive and well and living in Pakistan, the Hitler is alive and well and living in Argentina. Remember that phrase from the 1960s? It was just as true now as it was then. Hitler was killed in 1945 despite all the rumors about his escaping Germany to Argentina. Bin Laden was killed in Tora Bora in 2002 despite all the rumors of his escaping Afghanistan to Pakistan.

Those who don't remember history are condemned to repeat it.

The paper claims he is in a mountainous area to the north of the Pakistani city of Quetta. The region is said to be peopled with bin Laden supporters and the terrorist leader is estimated to also have 50 of his fanatical bodyguards with him.

Great, tell Allah to prepare a place for 50 new martyrs.

"The timing of that order will ultimately depend on President Bush," the paper says. "Capturing bin Laden will certainly be a huge help for him as he gets ready for the election."

Around mid October sounds good to me. :-)

I think bin Laden is dead. But I do hope they have the current leader of Al Qaeda in that web.
