Osama In Coma, Near Death

John Batchelor, WABC Radio - NYC ^ | February 15, 2003 | TommyDale

Just before midnight last night, John Batchelor, on location in Kazahkistan, reported that Osama Bin Laden is under heavy guard in a cave in Western Pakistan. He is yellow in color, from failing kidneys, and slips in and out of a coma. The required kidney dialysis has failed to help him.

Apparently, when he comes out of a coma for a brief period, they will record his voice. Of course, if he dies soon, he will be denied his wish for martyrdom. It was stated that some see this as a punishment from God.

What's this all about and who is John Batchelor?

[crz]

Exactly. He looked awful bad a few weeks after the bombing in Ashcantistan started, if you recall like me, one of the last live sort of photos of him showed. His lips were purple and he looked as if he was on his last leg. Wish I could find that photo.
Yours aye!

Dialysis staff? 3-7 days might be long enough if the condition is already poor.

I still believe bin Laden is cave caulk somewhere under Tora Bora. All the "evidence" nothwithstanding, I think he's been dead for more than a year.

I have a feeling you're right ... the guy has an ego larger than Pakistan. If he had survived Tora Bora, he have been releasing videos every week.

Symptoms

Symptoms of ESRD include weight loss, nausea or vomiting, general malaise, fatigue, headache, hiccups, itching, decreased urination, easy bruising or bleeding, lethargy, difficulty breathing and seizures. Symptoms may be mild until kidney function has dropped to 15 percent or less of normal.

Usually by the time ESRD occurs there is a long history of kidney disease. Levels of creatinine and blood urea nitrogen, chemicals ordinarily removed by the kidneys, are markedly elevated. Dialysis is generally considered when a specific set of problems has developed, including:

• Pericarditis (inflammation of the lining of the heart)
• Fluid overload or congestive heart failure (in which fluid backs up behind the heart into the lungs) that cannot be adequately improved with diuretics (medications that encourage elimination of fluid)
• Severely elevated blood pressure that is not improved by antihypertensive medications
• A decrease in nervous system functions marked by confusion, decreased alertness or seizures
• Bleeding related to kidney failure that cannot be improved through other means
• Severe, unrelenting nausea and vomiting
• Severe abnormalities in blood tests indicating that dialysis will soon be necessary, even if the problems mentioned above have not yet developed

Osama in a coma, I know
I know - it's serious
Osama in a coma, I know
I know - it's really serious

There were times when I could
Have "murdered" him
(But you know, I would hate
Anything to happen to him)


NO, I DON'T WANT TO SEE HIM


Do you really think
He'll pull through ?
Do you really think
He'llpull through ?
Do ...


Osama in a coma, I know
I know - it's serious
My, my, my, my, my, my baby, goodbye


There were times when I could
Have "strangled" him
(But you know, I would hate
Anything to happen to him)
WOULD YOU PLEASE
LET ME SEE HIM !


Do you really think
He'll pull through ?
Do you really think
He'll pull through ?
Do ...
Let me whisper my last goodbyes


I know - IT'S SERIOUS


(With apologies to The Smiths)

I think you are probably right!

They are trying to keep his status "alive" until it suits them to martyr him. Maybe blame us for an illegal act?

My personal favorite theory, at least as far as how wickedly optimal it would be if true, is that the CIA is holding Osama, and it will be arranged that his martyrdom takes place in Bagdad. Muahhahahahahahahah.

[marshmallow]

Well it would explain the sudden switch to infrequent audio messages from the post-9/11 finger-wagging videos he seemed to enjoy.

Wherever he is, he's obviously in no condition to be filmed. The terrorists are sure to concoct some lie to glorify his death, consistent with the falsehoods with which the life of their Prophet, Mohammed is surrounded.

The truth is that bin Laden has, or will die a sick and broken man, hiding from the consequences of his actions in a hole in the ground, like the troglodyte he is.

[Lady Jag]

Maybe he was wounded but they don't want to admit that so are sticking to the kidney story.

I only wish we had him in a cage. I'd pay money to watch him dying.

[TommyDale]

I like your theory. Mine is similar, that Osama is actually already dead, or near death, but the CIA doesn't want anyone to know it yet. We want to DENY him the ability to be a martyr, and we can't afford to tell of his death (or imminent death) because liberals will immediately tell us the "war on terrorism is over".

Huh?

[nomorecameljocks]

Assuming this is all true, it would be wonderful if Osama's body could be somehow captured and fed to pigs, a video made and broadcast on the islamic channel.

[GOPJ]

Better that he be in a coma than moving toward Miami with a new face. May he die the death of every person he has directly or indirectly killed. For eternity.

He is yellow in color, from failing kidneys, and slips in and out of a coma.

Batchelor and Alexander are heard in 38 states now? I thought they were only on WABC in NYC.
