Osama and his coin-operaed dialysis machine is sleeping safe and sound.

Now I go to sleep; this story is a dud.




Next time. Nite BC66.

Iran has a vested interest in saying that "Osama has been captured and that it happened a long time ago" because it takes the focus off their status as the #2 Axis of Evil Country and their own internal domestic power struggles.

By focusing the US and worlds attention on Osama (on the lamb or in custody), they are trying to shift attention away from being destabilized and / or the next country to have their population liberated.

This one has likely petered out. Next time we'll have him: dead cold or shackeled alive.


Gigantor did good. FR would have been first with the biggest story of the century thus far.

I wasn't picking a fight with anyone, merely pointing out a FR Fact of life.
It was supposed to be tongue in cheek.

And I meant mine in the same way...irony, sarcasm and tongues planted in cheeks are difficult to get across on these boards.

Cheers to you, friend.

Pakistan Minister of Interior quoted above:

Confirmed two dozen terrorists caught Tuesday, and "certain terrorist hideouts were identified by them [locals]."

Sounds like they are closing in. So this story might yet have legs.

The left will be planting rumours in the Internet between now and election day in case Bush does truly capture Usama.

That would give them the only possibility to undermine Bush using the capture as a political tool.

Thanks, onyx. Was fun to tweak Taliban (and DNC) noses, if nothing else, lol.

8 U.S. Denies Iran Report of Bin Laden's Capture ~ Reuters + AP, #30 | 2/28/04

Lt. Col. Bryan Hilferty, a spokesman for the U.S. military in Afghanistan, also said he had no information to suggest bin Laden had been caught.

"Things are going well, and we believe we will eventually catch all the leaders of al-Qaida, but I know nothing of that report," he said.

Pakistani Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed denied the reported capture, saying it was "baseless news."
