The Dubai-based satellite TV channel Al Arabiya is reporting that Osama Bin Laden has been “located” by US intelligence in the Kararakoram – a mountain range that spans the borders of Pakistan, the Kashmir and China (K2 is one of its peaks). There was a high-level meeting last week in Doha including General Petraeus, the recently-nominated Commander of US Central Command, and it is reasonable to speculate that – if there is truth to the report – it flows from this piece of intelligence. Whether the latest rumours about the tracking down of OBL have foundation will quickly become apparent. If they do have substance, Al Arabiya will have scored a huge world scoop – and have its rival Al Jazeera spitting nails.

That's nothing compared to what the DUmmies in Congress will be spitting. "The timing is suspicious...". Election 2008 and all that.

I think they’ve know all along his general whereabouts.

I really hope that you're wrong.

If so, then we ought to finish him off. It's long past due.

I agree completely. Until he shows up in video with a copy of the NYT’s in his hand and his lips are actually matching what he is saying about a current event then I MIGHT believe he isn’t a moldering corpse at the bottom of a cave somewhere.

Obama will want to negotiate with him to end the war on terror.

He’s meeting with Obama later this week, so of course he’s been located.

He’s in the basement of the White House. Every day, Bush goes down and pimp-slaps him just for a giggle

ATTENTION ALL DEMORATS!!

Your Leader, Osama Obama Bin HUSSEIN Barak Ladin has been located by the United States and It’s Allies. Please rush to save your Leaders and Messiahs now before It’s too Late!

Remember Bugeyes Piglousy has just announced Basra is safe, not because of Our Military’s Superior Heroism and Skills,
but because the Iranians(her Heros and Lovers) are BEING NICE!

The account of 15 Dec 01 was good and thorough, and the report that son Sa’ad(?) appointed new leader of Alqaida a couple months later also good and thorough.

I knew they wouldn't get him until an election year......

If it's true.

Also, the report just says "located", which means a few more months of hype before any possible kill.

Or better yet, he's in the nuclear facility in Iran.

Knowing his "general whereabouts" could be like saying he's in California. "General" could be pretty big.

“..reporting that Osama Bin Laden has been “located” by US intelligence in the Kararakoram..”

Rumor also has it that teams of ACLU lawyers are on their way to Pakistan and Afghanistan to prepare for Bin Laden’s defense, pro bono.

“It doesn’t matter. The Democrats don’t need him alive anymore.”

You’re right, they already found a replacement.

That’s “Karakoram”, not “Kararakoram”, UK Spectator...

They found him singing Karaoke in Karakoram. I heard that his "Piano Man" is spot on.
