#1 For a long time I have believed that UBL was killed in Tora Bora and is actually IN the mountains, as the man says. All of these audio tapes have not, yo my knowledge, been conclusively identified as UBL, just that it 'probably' or 'could' be UBL With UBL's love of the camera, I found this to be very incongruent.

But lately, as more and more evidence of Iran's involvement in AlQ, I wonder if UBL didn't go there from Kandahar vs. going to Tora Bora. A couple of hours in one of those nice Land Cruisers all the leader had and UBL would have been in black turban land.

What say you, Rbers?

#4 Dont know, I do know that Al-Q has been pretty quiet lately and that the "chatter" has dropped to near non existant levels IMHO that is a good sign as the chatter is now much less then it was in the run-up to large attacks in the past, as for Iran, I still fancy the low yield nuke option for sites connected to their manhattan project and full (and boy do I mean full) scale air war on government infrastructure and army objectives followed by an international blocade and let the people of Iran fight it out (with a little help from lanly offcourse)

#6 I believe with a nice sponge and some Clorox Spray cleaner, we can capture Osama bin Laden in the mountains of Tora Bora.

#7 I'm pretty sure he's dead but I'm willing to consider the possibility that he's Lynddie England's boy-toy.
