Wonder how many U.S. taxpayer dollars this cost.

The reward is 25 million, the arrest and eventual execution of the mastermind behind the murder of 3000 of your fellow Americans is priceless.

Any other questions?

And he was caught on one of his birthdays!!!!!

And for your birthday, we all chipped in to get you this shiny new chainsaw.

Put him in a barn.. clamp his member in a vice.. give him a dull knife.. set the barn on fire.. give him a choice.. if he cuts it and gets out.. then pop him.

Wonder how many U.S. taxpayer dollars this cost. What's 3000+ American lives worth to you ?

I thought the same thing at first when I read this comment, but I think the original poster was wondering how much it took us to bribe the Pakistani's into handing him over. Seems that in this war on bad guys, we, the US taxpayer, have had to pay everyone off...

[jwalsh07]

If it takes months to get what he knows, then it's too late. We need to know right now so we can put the other two on the path to hell.

be interesting to see who the second guy is. his outlook has dimmed considerably, in that there's no special reason to keep him alive unless, of course, he gives us one.

I like to post this one, it scares the French

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Our guys are also watching like hawks now, as the others prepare to flee, immediately.

Good point. The rats will scurry.

You should pick up a bottle of Cava(Spanish Champagne).
Avoid the French at all costs!

[jwalsh07]

Doesn't matter the answer remains the same.

[BarHopper]

Ah... that son of mine.

Fox news is reporting a 2 mil reward. I'm not sure if the ISI is eligible though. I'm sure someone is going to get some kind of reward for this POS!

[the-gooroo]

OK My fellow Freepies, at 9pm EST I will be twisting off the cap of a bottle of Walgreen's brand champanya, and toasting this wonderful, HUGH news. Anyone care to join me? All we need are some clever words to toast this guy.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

[JennysCool]

Mudhead BUMP!

[dep]
