Understand.

Again, like OBL - it might not be obvious from the Iraqi press that he's out-of-action though; even though there's NEVER been a specific picture or TV image of OBL alive since Nov '91, there's no story that confirms he dead.

No proof he's dead, but nothing showing he's alive (or in control) either. Nothing showing he (OBL) is in command of anything.
