Captured dead or alive, bring GWBush the head of Osama Bin Ladin.

Good idea. And while we are at it, we should drop them on the Sunni Triangle in Iraq.

[Dave Olson]

I hope they catch him dead.

I do too. If he's captured alive, there'd probably be attacks by terrorists attempting to get him released. Assuming he stays in custody, he'd likely be provided an OJ Simpson dream team defense for a celebrety trial of the century lasting for years and costing multi-millions of $$. And even if he's sentenced to death, there'd still be more years of appeals costing still more millions. Meanwhile he'd be spending his days having three meals a day, a place to sleep and free health care in a place that, albeit a prison, is probably more comfortable than he's in right now.

>> That's not possible. Mansoor Ijaz's unimpeachable sources has seen him recently in Iran,

Does Mansoor have a web site or anything? I missed that update from him - and FoxNews does not seem to acknowledge him on their web site anywhere (at least the last time I checked)

I say we'd better be careful not to execute him.

Yeah, the Red Cross will want to sponge-bathe him and feed him grapes.

Pine boxed?

[dglang]

A better word, MOAB

[Incorrigible]

Actually, he's driving a cab in Seattle. Here's his latest photo:

I have given some serious thought to the best way to punish OBL, should he be caught alive.

Option 1) Dress him in a diaper and place him in a glass booth about the size of a telephone booth. The booth has a sliding floor which gradually withdraws. Under the floor is a tank of sulphuric acid...To be broadcast live on global TV.

Option 2) Amputate his arms, legs, tongue and genitals. Then place him in a transparent booth in Times Square for tourists to throw tomatoes at.

Alas, I suspect both options may fall foul of the prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.

Whoa, now... I would be more than happy to shoot the man. My concern is that killing him would make him a martyr.

[marty60]

Whatever they do, don't mess up the face. Leave some DNA etc. The crazies will never believe he is dead without proof beyond a shadow of doubt.

[gulfcoast6]

No, just tell him 'you had the right to remain silent'.

"bin Laden's movements are continually monitored by a US National Security Agency satellite positioned over the land in which the wealthy Saudi is trapped."

They must be using the same science to position the satellite as the greenies use to prove global warming. Stationary satellites can only be located 22,500 miles above the equator.

Best I could do: Try this for a biography

[Paleo Conservative]

Stationary satellites can only be located 22,500 miles above the equator.

And orbiting from west to east.

Thank you for that wonderful photo and update on Tourist Guy. I hadn't realized he had gone to Mars. What is missing, though, is an aircraft (spaceship?) coming at him. Thank you again.
