Al Qaeda website: OSAMA IS DEAD!

Ever consider that the site might have been hacked?

Maybe even by us?

Gee ... which has less credibility? CBS or Al-Qaeda?

That's a tough call since they all seem to get their rhetoric from the same place.

Usamaa is Dead!

Long live Bert!

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Dig him up and kill him again.

Looks like al-Qaeda gave up on Operation Weekend at Osama's.

I thought the Sudan had kicked al Qaeda out and was trying to establish antiterrorist credentials. Why would they tolerate an al Qaeda Web site there?

Well, it's been quite a while since I posted this. I we can get a confirmation and a date, I'll revise it apporpriately.

~~Osama Paki-pool Update:~~ Osama bin DEAD-pool Pick a day! Any day! Or flag me for a QikPik! Update
In the past week, sightings of Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan have surpassed those of Elvis in Vegas. Is it almost over for the Scumbeard of the Year? Or are these all wild goose chases? What day do you think he's learn the truth about the 72 virgins and the 28 little boys? Or are you even in the game? Still plenty of open dates, so flag me on this thread (not my mailbox) if you want in. As you've noticed, since he doesn't look like he'll make it to Pakistan, I went ahead and changed the name of the pool. Sue me. KayEyeDoubleDee raised a good question a while back... What's the effective time zone for the pool? I should have established this earlier, so I think the only fair thing to do is say that it's whatever Time Zone bin Laden is killed in (or appears in Pakistan, which seems increasingly unlikely.) In the event that bin Laden turns out to have been killed already, we'll wait until a reliable forensic report (meaning, the stage of maggot development on his rotten carcass) before declaring a winner.
ANNOUNCEMENT from Recovering_Democrat SABERTOOTH'S POOL IS NOW GOING TO BE CONSIDERED THE POOL FOR THE WINNER. RECOVERING DEMOCRAT WILL DONATE $25 TO FR IN THE NAME OF THE WINNER OF SABERTOOTH'S POOL! (sorry folks. I didn't know there was a pool already going! I meant to do something ORIGINAL. No need to have two going at once, so I'll rely on Sabertooth to provide the name of the winner! Thanks ST! rd)
Hey, thank YOU, RD! As far as I'm concerned, if you thought of it yourself, it's original. And I doubt I was the first But it was your great idea to give $25 in the name of the winner to Free Republic. If you don't mind, I think I'll match that, in addition to posting a glory thread with the winner's name on it. henbane… Sabertooth
ANNOUNCEMENT from henbane: and glock rocks have both chipped $25 pledges into the DEAD-pool. That's $100 in the Free Republic kitty when this is all done!

If you're unsure what the whole "Paki-pool" idea was about, click this link to a thread posted by Travis McGee on October 25th... Will Osama Appear In Pakistan? The operating theory is was that Osama bin Laden had a plan all along to show up in Pakistan, have himself declared the "Imam al-Mahdi" (a long-prophesied Islamic savior-figure), and start a civil war in an attempt to gain control of Pakistan's nukes. Sound crazy? So is he. Crazy evil. It's still an interesting read.
Here's another: Black Flags of Islam Portents of the Imam al-Mahdi, the Moslems' prophesied deliverer of Jerusalem? Click on the Black Flags for the link

"He's dead. You may now call off all efforts to locate and punish him. We were all just poor little sheep who were led astray and screwed over by Big Bad Osama. Everything will be better now if you just forget about the mad act of a lone religious fundamentalist. We will now dedicate the efforts of Al Qaeda to spreading peace and love throughout the world. That is all."

CBS huh ? this is the start of usurping Bush and his attack coming on Saddam.....wait for the liberal media to follow.

I think you hit this one over the left field wall and into McCovey Cove. Look for the next DNC talking points repeated by the likes of Mara Liasson, "Now that OBL is dead, then the War On Terrorism is won and we can go back to Kitchen Table issues". Of course, if you know anythng about Al Queda, it is set up so that it will function even if OBL is dead.

I'm sure Osama would like the world to believe that he is dead. I won't believe it, until somebody produces a body.

NY Times Special Edition Headline:

OBL Dead: War on Terrorism Over, Happy Days Are Here Again!

LOL

Cervesa on me, next 100 posts!

OUTSTANDING!!!!!

Well, if UBL is dead, I hope it was from unnatural causes.

After thinking about it this looks more and more like a signal for someone (sleeper) to do something.

I'm in.

Until they find DNA evidence of the body, Osama == Elvis.
