Do you read from this excerpt that someone named Osama died but not THE Osama.

Why would they be announcing this on 9/11? Something is up...secret signal to commence some kind of terrorist act perhaps?

I'm also very suspicious about the timing of this. Yet, I can't really believe that they would announce that he is dead as a signal because it gives us a win. However, maybe the plan is to make us relax and stop the massive hunt for them so that they can pull off another massive attack. Who knows? The utter cowards.

Maybe their purpose is to now turn him into a martyr to recruit and further their terror. They could not do that until they admit he is dead. Or - he could be alive and in hiding but they still plan on claiming he died and make him a martyr. They will do what we don't expect.

You're welcome ET, and I agree ET and Rummy Chick, it's hard to tell. Just one of those unconfirmed reports it seems. It also seems an eager beaver at CBS wanted to make his mark a little too early.

I really hope it can be confirmed though!

I'm going to work on getting the original link, for completeness' sake. (it will be in Arabic though, but you are all free to translate yourself if you wish)

This guy (computer) writes worse than Babelfish. I like Babelfish.

I think it said that a B-52 bombed OBL's trench and the people there confirmed that OBL is dead.

Seemed like it happened in December 2001, around Ramadan.

Could debka.com possibly be wrong? Impossible!!!

It looks to me like the site is apologizing to people writing in to him and he was talking about an Osama in the brotherhood but not Sheik Osama.

We could speculate that perhaps the original article said he was dead but now that it has hit the world the site is trying to back track.
Too hard to tell since I don't speak Arabic.
