DUBAI, Oct 10: Osama bin Laden is alive and well and has even put on weight, a Saudi weekly reported today, quoting what it said was the head of information for bin Laden's al-Qaeda terror network. "For your information, bin Laden's weight has increased by several kilos (pounds), because of his security precautions which prevent him moving around much," Abderrahman al-Rashed told the London-published weekly Al-Majalla. (AFP) (Posted @ 20:25 PST)

Uh-huh. More likely the newest double weighs a few pounds more than the original stingbean, so next time we see a video purporting to be him, we'll be prepared for a fatter version.

In fact, he is so freaking large that we can't squeeze a camera in the room with him so you are just going to have to take our word for it.

Too bad the more medically inclined of us weren't there to do an autopsy on UBL. But the man probably shed this veil of tears sometime last December. Right now the fires of Hell are licking his testicles. He is one sorely disappointed m*f*!

Could this be our Binnie, maybe with a nose job, or maybe they just all look alike to me

If he were alive, it would be bloat (water gain) from the kidney disease,/p>

And, he would smell very bad...of course, he would smell pretty bad if he's dead. Either way, a stinking mess.

re post#27: Who knows? I saw a really nice tribute (?) Middle Eastern like video of this guy before it was deleted from the web. I noticed the beard. I noticed the nice teeth. Who knows who this guy is. Several articles on the internet have mentioned that Saad bin Laden took over UBL's command. See links above.

Time for al-Qaeda to release an Osama workout video. In today's post-Taliban world, you need tight abs and firm buttocks to be a jihad warrior.

'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!!He's f*****n' snuffed it!..... THIS IS AN EX-OSAMA!!

As I once posted a long, long time ago...the worst thing for these backward idiots is that we think he's still alive...so we can go just about ANYWHERE...and CHASE him. I said that if he were in fact vaporized, we should create others to impersonate him. If he were alive, we should send him vitamins and cab-fare to anywhere he wants to go...since he won't be visiting any friends of ours...

", because of his security precautions which prevent him moving around much,"

Well, liveing under a barrel is too good for him, if you ask me.
Feeding him though the bung hole in a barrel must require him eating Chicken McNuggets...they will make you fat..

If he's getting fat, can I volunteer for the surgery to reduce Osama's weight (down to 0 pounds)?
