Starting with the Chicoms late last night and continueing to this minute the news flaks all keep saying Bin Laden’s country hut had no communications, no phone no internet, etc. I just recorded, to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing, a FOX segment w/Catherine Herridge describing some actual pics of the compound. There is a power line going right by that clearly has at least one phone-sized conductor on it. The side of a portion of the building shows a substantial electrical harness. Most importantly there is a 12 foot SATELLITE DISH on a low portion of the building. Are these people blind, stupid, ignorant ( optional ) ??? and what would the purpose be in ignoring a SATTELITE DISH in the flaming yard? Maybe it’ll take a few days for them to acknowledge virginboy wasn’t really an actual hermit? He must have been able to , oh, I dunno, bank online?
Are these helicopters really quiet?

I suspect that OBL has actually been dead since Tora Bora. It was politically necessary to keep him “alive” because the left including the press had cast the entire effort as an attempt to kill OBL and his demise would bring a great trumpeting of “The War Is Over! We Must Bring The Troops Home!” that would have made further prosecution of the campaigns difficult if not impossible. The war was never about “getting Osama.” No major nation has ever waged or will ever wage a war to kill one man. I see it as possible that OBL is “killed” now because the Kenyan has decided to pull the plug on our defense in the Islamic War.
