Ohhhhsama Has-Been Laden is hotter than HELL right now. His hate-filled spirit lives on in the Taliban & Al-Qaeda.

Good grief, this is sounding like a Monty Python skit now. If I do see him in a video I'm gonna look real close to make sure he isn't nailed to the perch.

[The article appeared on website www.jehad.net with the headline: "Yes, Osama has been killed...The story of the missile that removed the trench in Tora Bora in which Osama bin Laden had been hiding."

This is probably accurate. First reports are often true, IMO.

[The author, who said he was an eyewitness to a U.S. raid in Tora Bora, Afghanistan, in December, said the man killed then was Osama al-Adani, while bin Laden survived.]

This is the revision. Probably untrue, after they decided it was best to keep OBL's death a secret. Not as useful as a martyr killed by the infidels, I guess.

[The author said bin Laden had left the trench when a missile was fired by a U.S. B-52 bomber on apparent tips that the leader of al Qaeda was there.]

Again, the truth.

[Even if it was Osama bin Laden who was killed, the sun of Holy struggle does not go down," he said.]

Another non-denial denial.

OBL is dead. With his titanic ego, there is no way he would stay out of the limelight for so long. Especially on the anniverary of his "triumph". GW said he would be hunted down and brought to justice, and that is exactly what occurred.

It's gonna take the American media awhile longer I guess, to figure out that you assume Arab media is a lie, and start from there. They keep getting wrong-footed, which is amusing in its way... Like Mohammed did, they create reality as they go along. They got great imaginations, them Mohommedans.

But that is the American media!

Anyone take a look at the website? It's all in Arabic, but when you hover over the links of course you see them in english in your status bar. Look for the one ending in "flash.htm" it's on the right hand side. There's some weird $#!* there.

I like your analysis ... I take this "mistaken report" as a sign he is indeed dead. If Arab media lies, then retraction is as likely a lie as the first report. Not proof or fact, but at least a sign.

Besides, it was another separate report of a journalist that hinted Bin Laden might be dead, due to a verbal "slip" from an Al Quaeda source.

"And There Was Much Rejoicing!"

Hope this at least shuts up the Clinton/Daschle/Demoron statements about "dont go after Saddam yet, keep looking for bin laden in those afghan caves."

Every once in a while one of them slips and says something truthful or reveals a secret. But they get back in line fast enough.

The difference between them and the Democrats is that The Dems never tell the truth and they always stay in line.

Let's see, "the author" has an inside line on U.S. intelligence, and he saw a B-52 use a missle. I believe it. What's not to believe?

That's two guys in the past two weeks who have let this out.

First, one of UBL's chiefs of staff spoke of bin Laden in the past tense. The rest of the interview, the interviewees were trying to convince the interviewer that binnie was still with us.

Then this fake report, followed by a quick apology.

Looks like bin Laden, like Elvis, has left the building. Permanently.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
