“I am driven to the interpretation that something is wrong with the upper reaches of al-Qaeda — some sort of disruption."

Duh.

Bin Laden is dead? This means we have to bring all our troops home now?

A SLIP of the tongue by one of Osama bin Laden’s top henchmen seems to have betrayed al-Qaeda’s most potent secret: its charismatic leader is dead. ..

The blunder was made by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who has confessed to being the operational mastermind behind the September 11 attacks....

During two days of interviews, Mr Mohammed referred to bin Laden, who has not been seen since the fall of Afghanistan’s Taleban regime, in the past tense. The reporter Yosri Fouda, London bureau chief for al-Jazeera, concluded that bin Laden is now likely to be dead...

Mr Mohammed’s slip of the tongue about bin Laden’s demise was a serious lapse. Throughout their discussions with the reporter, al-Qaeda operatives persistently sought to suggest that their leader was still alive, well and keenly following events.

One intermediary told the journalist that bin Laden remained an avid viewer of al-Jazeera, so much so that “whatever he misses, he gets on tape”.

Al-Qaeda’s decision to bring a reporter from al-Jazeera to meet two of bin Laden’s generals rather than the man himself adds to the impression that their leader may be no more.

You have no link to check and this article has no direct quotes from Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.

Bin Laden may indeed be dead, but this article sheds no substantial light.

Nuclear targets were the first choice, but they were ruled out for now, Mr Mohammed said.

I hope that warning is heeded.

"Mr Mohammed’s slip of the tongue about bin Laden’s demise was a serious lapse. "

A serious lapse, or an attempt at disinforming the West?

[Cicero]

I don't think this proves anything at all. It could be disinformation. Or it could be a manner of speaking. It's not unknown to speak about living people in the past tense, when you are talking about what they did at some earlier time. If I say "Bin Ladin did this," or "Bin Ladin did that," that doesn't mean he is dead.
