Osama Bin Ladin: A dead man walking.

[TheDon]

Sniff, sniff...what's that smell? Ladin has crapped his pants! Ewwwwww...

[Ymani Cricket]

the newspaper said U.S. commandos arrived in Pakistan on Sept. 13

Special Forces - ready to be deployed anywhere in the world within 18 hours. Get 'em boys!

Like we keep saying, we may not SEE anything for awhile.

[2Jedismom]

Oh, if this is true, I hope they are careful...the place is loaded with land mines, from what I understand. Is there a way to detect land mines? Other than stepping on one?

[Lady In Blue]

Thanks kattracks! Sure hope they find this TERRORIST!

[Reagan Man]

Let's hope its true and we get Bin Laden real soon.

Justice will prevail!

Strikes based on precise intelligence, gathered through a network of these bases, will be the key difference between Operation Enduring Freedom against Afghanistan from Operation Desert Storm in Iraq that claimed thousands of innocent lives.

[dalebert]

Wonder who leaked this?

[rintense]

Let's see... they got there on the 13th. It's now the 27th. Why haven't they foud him yet? Sheesh. It's not as if every man over there has a beard, and wears a robe and turban.

WELL DUUUUUUHHHHHH!!!!

Sorry, I just find it amusing when the press writes about this like its news... This is a big old DUH!! Who else would we have in there?

[BunnySlippers]

No link? :-(

Kattracks, thanks for finding and posting this. It gives my spirits a real and much-needed lift. I hope it's true. Trying to read the tea leaves: (1) The report is in the U.S. paper with the largest nationwide circulation. (2) It quotes unidentified SENIOR U.S. and Pakistani OFFICIALS. (3) They did not say the officials were talking on condition of anonymity. Such attribution usually means someone in the government with reliable info has been authorized to talk "on background." I note the Pentagon spokeswoman did not deny the report. (4) It's one thing to ask the American people for patience -- it's quite another to appear to be taking no retaliatory action at all. So perhaps a carefully placed item like this USA Today piece is intended to do precisely what it has -- give us hope that retribution is actually on its way.

osama! come out!

[griffin]

Hmmmm....interesting.

I heard a 32 year experienced firearms dealer this evening on talk radio here from MN. He claimed to have a few friends in CA in the firearms/military industry. Rumor has it that body bags of our SF guys are already coming back....we just aren't hearing about it yet...or it isn't true.

[Amerigomag]

Our troop arrival in Pakistan was reported as it occured by Pak sources but the posting was repeatedly sensored off this forum.

Why is it now allowed?

[Roebucks]

Hey Osama!

[bulldog905]

Please pray for our brave men and their success in this mission!

[Combat Boot]

nice job kattracks, lets telegraph the rope-a-dope. score another one for people who cant seem to keep their big mouths shut about military actions.

[ambrose]

HELP IS ON THE WAY!

[NoControllingLegalAuthority]

This is part of the mind game scenario. It was probably deliberately leaked. It may have something to do with drawing OBL recon troops out in the open to watch for American and British SF.
