#1 Oh, please! This is the Pak Tribune reporting on a report by Radio Tehran. The only way Mullah Omar would be replaced is if he caught a bad case of lead poisoning.

#2 I can imagine Mullah Omar being replaced because as far as the Taliban is concerned he's pretty much been a huge failure. I would doubt any American involvement in the matter, however. The US would prefer the loser in charge.

#3 well, maybe he has a future in Stadium Supercross. Still riding that 125cc Honda Omar?

#4 Mullah Umar has already caught a case of lead poisoning. Only that it is the slow variety: the one who makes crazy and stupid
