The last time I posted that I thought bin Laden was dead, a few weeks back, I got jumped by multiple FReepers who let me know that I was pretty much un-American for believing that. I still believe it.
Believing or not believing that OBL is dead has nothing to do with being American or Unamerican. I can’t begin to see the connection. However, I do believe that if our government became aware of OBL’s demise, they’d plaster his face on the front of every newspaper and magazine in a heartbeat with “OSAMA BIN LADEN IS DEAD !!!!” as a caption. For reasons I can’t fathom, it would boost the ratings of our government’s popularity with Americans. There’s no logic in that, but that’s the way of the land. Remember the hideous faces of Saddam’s sons when they were killed? There was no getting away from those pictures.
