Saw it as well. I agree with the retired Colonel. It would have been a good idea a year ago, but now it is just too much in the way. Nothing out-does the U.S. Spec forces!

I wonder if this is the one coming out of Silicon Valley ...

Yeah saw something on this about a week ago and then yesterday. They have their own guys already there.1 Billion is sweet. But the act is priceless. For everything else there is Mastercard and the U.S. Military.

[ChadGore]

YYYYYYYyyyyyyes !

[Aquinasfan]

What if one of his cronies kills him?

I'd prefer a billion dollar reward for curing cancer. Pay for a cure, not research.

[AngrySpud]

Gotta be privately-held companies or private monies ... wouldn't 'public' companies have to get shareholders' boards to approve it?

[PRND21]

Those in the know would prefer 7 vigins for enternity, I understand.

[HEFFERNAN2]

This is a terrible idea...all this will do is muddy up the water with alot of wannabee's. We have Spec Ops we don't need a bunch of "cowboys" getting in the way. Semper Fi, Mike

LET'S ROLL!!!

[Hildy]

What if the second in command turns him in, we give them A billion to keep going? Don't make sense.

[Rudder]

Okay, they pay 1 billion and they get Bin Laden. What then do they do with him--put him jail, make him solder transisters together in a Silicon Valley hoosegow?

I'd prefer to have him become a tiny little cinder on the floor of the Afghani desert.

[Centurion2000]

I wonder if the Special Ops guys will get a chance to collect this.

I remember that the Emir of Kuwait offered 1000.00 a day for every soldier that served but Bush refused saying 'we're not mercenaries'.

[surfer]

Anybody want to front me a couple of million so I can go and get the job done. I will split the bounty with ya!

[bond7]

For a billion dollars we may have the major airlines scheduling regular flights into Kanduhar. People will be taking their regular 2 week vacations "in the mountains".

[dr_who]

What if that bounty gets funneled back into terrorist organizations somehow? After all, alot of these characters have pointed out how useful it would be to them if Osama was to become a martyr, and they've already broadened the definition of martyrdom to include outright suicide attacks on innocent people. Just a thought.

[PrivacyChampion]

I wonder what it would take to set up a revolving fund that people can contribute to that would place bounties on the heads of terrorists and their benefactors. I think one could set up a 501 c(3) that would raise money, with 100% going to a wanted dead or alive bounty on terrorists, and not just bin Laden. I for one am definitely interested. Talk about sending a strong message. All freedom-loving people contributing to a cause to show these terrorists that you strike and we'll put a bounty on your head a$$hole.

Who's up for it. Let's Roll...sign up today.

[Freebird Forever]

How much for Saddam Hussein?  

[bond7]

The fine print probably says, "No terrorists, extremists or their families are eligible".

[TransOxus]

What a joke?!! Bin Laden is just another head in the hydra-headed monster of hate and destruction which is the Beast of the Middle East. It is utter foolishness to believe that eliminating Bin Laden is the cure-all. One lunatic after another has always appeared championing the misguided or rather cancerous Middle East cause - Arafat, Ayatollah, Saddam, Clinton, and now Bin Laden. The real American tragedy after the WTC destruction will be a pantywaisted response which it is begining to seem more apparent as each day goes by as the Middle East cocks its snout at the PC response of the U.S.
