Wow, that's interesting. I hope they get him soon.

Unfortunately the videotape was made in advance. Nobody is sure about how far in advance it was made so he still could be anywhere.

I have difficulty understanding this. What it this geologist talking about and why does he think he found Bin Laden based on what the rocks looked like in the video?

Just a passing comment. My daughter graduated from a good university two years ago. She has a BS in Physics and a minor in Math Statistics. She took two years of biology, two years of geology and worked as a TA for the Astronomy Professor for all four years. She applied to the CIA......never even got a reply! Applied to the FBI and was told that there was a backlog of applications and a response would not be forthcoming unless they had an interest in hiring her. Of course, slick willie was president at the time.

Wouldn't this be the type of intelligence we would not want to publicize? Why would this geologist say anything to the media without consulting with our government, and stay mum about it, so we can catch this person?

I'm sure the Feds analyze every millimeter of those videos with equipment and personnel from literally hundreds of areas of expertise.

Ossama, can you come out to play?

Why is this being made public?

At best, this will be able to pinpoint only a region where those particular sedimentary rocks are exposed. Fortunately, Afghanistan is very rugged and mountainous, and to a knowledgeable geologist, a single glimpse of the exposed rock will indicate the particular range where that rock is outcropped.
Unfortunately, that may only narrow it down to a 50 mile area, or so. Still, that helps immensely.

Say did anyone notice that BONG looking thing setting above them on the rocks? It's gotta be a clue to their frame of mind. LOL
To: Oldsailor
saying he has been told not to discuss the inquiries in detail. He did say he is certain that the type of sedimentary rock visible in the videotape is found only in Paktia and Paktika, two provinces in southeastern Afghanistan about 125 miles from Kabul
Im not allowed to say anything. This is where he is.
This guys lips are looser than Monicas.

Let's see a Bin Laden video demonstrably made since our counterattacks.

So we have really pinpointed him now. We think that he may be (or has been) in some provinces in southern Afghanistan. I guess the war is over.

This article is American propaganda ... thank goodness. It does not tell us where OBL is, because it is not a picture of where he is this day, let alone this instant. But it does tell us that Americans are pretty damn smart, and that we WILL figure out where he is.
To: Oldsailor
I think any motivated patriot with a survey of geology under her belt was hoping U.S. central command was on those pictures. The geologist is a blabber mouth,though.

They say he moves everyday between various locations.
