Wow. That's interesting, thanks.
Yes it is.
Thank you for noticing.
and Amen.
I hope and pray (please, please, please, please, please) let this be so. However, he is a slippery one and knows where all the hidie holes are. However, the absence of his image on the 3rd annaversary tape with his right hand man has raised a lot of eye brows. Some think hes dead. Others postulate a scenario similar to yours - he's bottled up on constantly on the run and cannot communicate out. But I agree, either way a "GO" code has been given in his name and the clock is ticking.
Thanks for the summary and looking into any sesmic activity related to N.K.
"On the same day, the Times of London reported: "U.S. officials are investigating reports that Islamic terrorists have smuggled Stinger ground-to-air missiles into the United States from Pakistan."
"Senior Iranian sources close to the fundamentalist regime in Teheran claimed this weekend that the TWA flight 800 was shot down last month by one of these shoulder-fired Stingers of the type used by Islamic guerrillas during the Afghanistan war."
"The sources said the missiles arrived in America seven months ago after being shipped from Karachi via Rotterdam and on to the Canadian port of Halifax. They claimed an Egyptian fundamentalist group backed by Iran was responsible for smuggling the weapons across the Canadian border into the United States."
"The article went on to identify the group: the Gama'a al-Islamiya—the same group that attempted to blow up the New York Trade Center under the leadership of Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman. This same group allegedly notified the White House that they had shot down the plane, and even provided a serial number of the missile used. This last information has not been confirmed as of this writing."
Liturgically, tomorrow is Our Lady of Sorrows...
Hmmm. Not Geo. Bush or 1000 dead in N.Y.?
That only works for so long, even with indigenious help in the region. Ask Eric Rudolf. With US SPECOPS dedicated to finding him and dedicated with 100% of their hearts, minds and souls.....there is no force on earth that will keep them off forever. These guys just know that they are the avenging angels of 911 and they take the charge with utmost seriousness. Remember that although they are cunning and ruthless and perhaps even brave (in a strange way) that OBL and his thugs are not well trained in the art of guerilla war. OTOH, they are going up against the very BEST OF THE BEST. The cream of counter-insurgency. And for them, it's very personal.
he's bottled up on constantly on the run and cannot communicate out.....
I think this is the case, but I think it's actually worse. IMHO, not only is he totally bottled up, I'm betting that he is restricted to a very defined area and he's not "running" anywhere. His 50 guys and Mullah Omar are getting ready to replay their version of Dien Bien Phu; or possibly the Battle of the Little Big Horn. And they know it. One corner of my mind hopes they will get him alive and parade him in front of DNC National HQ on election night. Another part of me hopes they have no choice but to cut him to pieces and stuff him full of pig guts before he dies, and make the rest watch. Maybe let one go to tell everybody else how America takes vengenance.

Hhoooorraaah.

Vengence is a dish best served cold.

I am with you on this. :)

Thanks for the ping. Looks like I've got another book to add to my voluminous reading list :)
Is "unk" unknown?
Luke 2: 33 - 35
33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him;
34 and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, "Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is spoken against
35 (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed."
Thank you for your summary. Just found info on the N.K. blast incident that offers another possibility:
An example of just how far the speculation goes: Some wonder whether it was possible that the three-to-four-kilometer-wide non-nuclear mushroom cloud, the first clue of the explosion last Thursday, was actually the result of a precision attack by either China or the US on these suspect sites, a prelude to the upcoming but still not scheduled six-party talks. The negotiations are aimed at persuading North Korea to dismantle its nuclear program in return for security guarantees, alternative energy supplies and massive economic assistance.
With no radioactive fallout reported by any of North Korea's neighbors, nor from regional technologies designed to monitor such events, all indications are a conventional explosion of unconventional magnitude - similar to the Massive Ordnance Air Burst (MOAB) the United States tested in the spring of 2003.
Designed to replace the Vietnam-era, 12,000-pound (5,440-kilogram) "Daisy Cutter" bomb, the US Air Force's new 22,000-pound (10,000kg), Global Positioning System (GPS)-guided MOAB, applied in multiples, could create a conventional explosion similar to that which has been described to have happened in North Korea. Tests of a single MOAB (those who witnessed it referred to it as the Mother of All Bombs) in 2003 showed that the weapon created a mushroom cloud that extended about three kilometers in the air, yet left a relatively small seismic signature. Of course, that MOAB tested in Florida was designed, as the name suggests, to burst above ground, but the crater - the missing North Korean mountain - suggests a ground or below detonation: subterranean force projection? The USAF includes "deeply buried targets" within the 10-tonne weapon's target range; it is a penetrating weapon capable of delivering the explosive power of 18,000 pounds (more than 8,000kg) of Tritonol to targets deep beneath the surface.
