Remind me: why don't we know where bin Laden is? Isn't this something the CIA ought to have accomplished by now? It is a small world.

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

I doubt bin Laden is alive.

It is a small world.

Yeah with only about 6 and a half billion or so people to search it's amazing that they haven't come up with anything yet. ;-)

[Caesar Soze]

They ought to have. They also ought to have hectored Saddam from power, developed a system of real-time milimeter-resolution color surveillance satellites, and found homes for all the lost puppies in the world. These are things that they ought to have done; unfortunately, real-world constraints prevent them from doing everything they ought to do.

The battery in his tracking device went dead. Gov't was too cheap to buy an energizer battery. Cutbacks.

He's dead.

If he were alive, there would be video. Audio is easy to fake where as video is not.
