miroslav Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 YES!!! I heard also that they are pretty sure Osama is now almost "cornered" in a small area of Pakistan/Afghanistan. Boy would that make for a great news... "OSAMA CAUGHT"...or OSAMA FOUND DEAD"!!! Then many people would have to stop saying that the USA is not really doing enough about Al Qaeda. Not that Al Qaeda would be finished...but at least if the head is cut off...the rest of the body would have a harder time thinking about what to do next... since most of the sleeper cells are just fanatics that have been hypnotized by Osama to do his bidding. miroslav - miroslavmusic.com "Just because it happened to you, it doesn't mean it's important."

Lee Flier Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 That would be awesome if true... but if it is true, I wonder why the U.S. is denying it? And if it's not true, why is the Pakistani minister making it up? Bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Flier Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 Uhhh, bolt, the Post is just repeating the same AP story, which still has the U.S. denying it. That doesn't make it any more true than the first story. I'm not getting my hopes up too much YET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chip McDonald Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 I predict there will be a "sudden" "mysterious" shift in emphasis BACK to bin Laden in the coming weeks if it becomes apparent the UN is going to vote the U.S. down...

doug osborne Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 I've been saying this for months (I work in an ultra-conservative organization,and I consider myself quite moderate). It's a big chess game at this point, and to assemble these troops in the mideast and at the last minute, surround the border of Afghanistan/Pakistan, and search all the caves for our real target... Maybe then, we surround Israel/Palestine, and say "OK, kids, no one gets in or out until you fix your problems" IMO GB is not smart enough to wrap his head around this, but, I could be wrong.

However, Colin Powell is smart enough, and it wouldn't surprise me to find that he masterminded such a diversion... A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.

Salyphus Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 I would be impressed if they were actually capable of pulling something like that off. I would be happy to eat my words :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meccajay Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 Bin Laden huh... It would be soooo great to catch him BEFORE the war, but my thinking is that if you have 200 million dollars and strong Islamic connections you can get out of any country in that region if you wanted to... My guess is a body double is being used to buy time, and Osama is on Easter Island or in N. Korea somewhere... TROLL . . . ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffinator Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 I'm not convinced that catching Bin Laden would avert a war. Bush would find another excuse to go after Iraq - it's his father's legacy...
