Ben laden is dead.

No, he's not. Just like Zawahiri, Mullah Omar, J Haqqani & G Hekmatyar, and three other HVTs we've been after in the Afghan / Pak mountains for the past 5 years.....UBL remains alive and eking out a survival.

We have guys risking all 24/7 trying to track each of these men down....engaged nightly putting guns on targets...

The reality is most simply don't comprehend how difficult it is to operate in this region of the world (the Afghan / Pak border region). We are talking over 1,500 miles of border alone....with every earthly landscape from snow capped mountains to desert....An area where Pashtun tribal warlords are in complete control....and have been for more then the last century (the area is autonomous from the Pak Gov't).

It is really some of the most brutal terrain on earth.....Making sustained operations a complete nightmare.

UBL remains alive....but one of these days he is going to zig...our shooters will zag....and we'll put guns or a JDAM dead on his sorry as$...

Killing him is of much more value then most understand.
