WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Some members of Osama bin Laden's security detail have been captured and are among the detainees at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, U.S. officials told CNN Tuesday.
Sources believe that if the bodyguards were captured away from bin Laden, it is likely the most-wanted man in the world is dead. The sources said the guards have been in custody since February.

Well, actually because of the large number of martyrs lately virgins are in short supply. Soooo instead of 72 virgins, a martyr now gets ONE 72 year old virgin.

When you send hundreds of other subhumans off to meet the 72 small boys most favored by the islamanazi's sexually repressed lumpen Osamajugend, it is assumed you know you are automatically also a candidate in America's new game, "Who Wants To Be A Million Air Particles."
Osama bin Shirt-Liftin', bin Turd Burglin', bin Cavecrawlin' The First has been daisycuttered.

The nature of our weaponry makes it a very real possibility that bin laden is either vapor or scattered around the countryside in thousands of little pieces.

If your were Bush and know OBL was dead, would you announce it?
Keep in mind, al-Queda is now denied a leader a successor and a martyr, and we still have a symbol of a thereat that will at least motivate us through Iraq.

" I've been reluctant to buy into the bin Laden's death theory. After all. He's fooled us before." Only back when we were so asleep that we didn't process alerts from flight schools saying, "hey, these Arabs don't want to know how to take off and land"?
I think the "best" of al-Queda is in a NY rubble pit, Guantanamo and in jail. The rest are low on resources, replacements, refuge and respect. They're the walking dead (running), but no one in authority wants to say it and then have even something small blown up and be "proven wrong". Also we need the image of a menacing al-Queda to shore up our national resolve to finish the job.

I tend to agree. These "Bin-Laden-Is-Planning-An-Attack-For-X-Date" headlines we've been seeing are, I suspect, ginned up in the Arab press by Al-Quaeda refugees.
However, you can bet that our guys will be using bamboo under the fingernails and the old electric jumper cables on the privates to find out EXACTLY what these fine fellows know.

Unless, however, he was virtually vaporized. Especially if the only ones who saw his death were his terror buds---I doubt they would have either the inclination nor the time (with the bombs falling) to go find pieces of OBL in the rubble.

Helen Thomas reminds me of Hitlery. They're mouths shape a smile...but look at the eyes. Eyes never lie. Pure evil.
