Yeah, we had Al cornered. Kerry said so.

I thought that was Osama. So may lies. It's hard to keep them all straight.

It is my opinion that OBL is in one of Qaddafi's 'safe houses' in Africa, perhaps one of those purchased from Zimbabwe.

We did and missed him in an early morning strike. We hit the wrong house in Falluja.

you gotta figure that he's living a really poor lifestyle what with troops after him all the time, trusting no one, same with earlbinladen

I could almost vote for a joint US-Russian invasion of Iran.

it reminds me of a show about nostradamus hosted by orson welles... one of the predictions involved russia and USA fighting muslims together... it'd be funny to see how the left would react to their beloved russians taking sides with Americantroops

I was TA, so didn't actually hack dits. We had our share of hogs though. We had an old R-389 set up just for the entertainment. Last time I was called a NUG was in 66 when I arrived in SEA.

I have zero confidence in German intel services and the IAEA couldn't find their ass with both hands and a mirror.

Iran....paralleled development for U enrichment sounds solid; one for IAEA and one for fitting a warhead on a missile.

IMO, their program is more advanced and the time frame shorter than has been reported. The one agency in the world that knows is Mossad.

What's bothersome is Iran may not run a test somewhere out in the boonies, announcing to the world their new nuke status. Their shortcut may be testing through a computer....wonder where that tech came from.

For what it is worth....

http://www.washtimes.com/op-ed/20041026-090700-5561r.htm

The Baluch have a long history of harboring terrorists. Saddam Hussein financed Baluch terrorists against Pakistan as far back as 1969, Iraq expert Laurie Mylroie told me.
In July 2002, Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf announced that he was sending commandos into the tribal areas of Pakistan to flush out bin Laden. If Pakistani troops were quick and thorough, bin Laden would find himself surrounded—and perhaps even betrayed for the $25 million price on his head. Relying on the goodwill of Baluch cutthroats, he must have known, was not a viable long-term strategy.
Seemingly desperate, bin Laden recorded an extraordinary audiotape and sent it via courier to Ali Khomenei, the grand ayatollah of Iran's Supreme Council. On that tape, according to a former Iranian intelligence officer I interviewed in Europe, bin Laden asked for Iran's help. In exchange for safe harbor and funding, he pledged to put al Qaeda at the service of Iran to combat American forces in Afghanistan and in Iraq, where al Qaeda leaders believed American intervention was inevitable. Bin Laden reportedly pledged, "If I die, my followers will be told to follow you [Khomenei]."
Apparently the taped appeal worked. Murtaza Rezai, the director for Ayatollah Khomenei's personal intelligence directorate, began secret negotiations with bin Laden. Under the agreement between the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and al Qaeda, several convoys transported bin Laden's four wives, as well as his eldest son and heir apparent, Saad bin Laden, into Iran. Saad reportedly remains there today.

Whether the Iranians know it or not, I don't know. I would not at all doubt that they would do it, even if they did, though. The Iranians are deeply involved in the Iraq terrorism. The threat of an American invasion doesn't seem to have deteterred that.

Also the press tried really hard for the year before the election to convince the gullible that Iraq was not part of the War On Terror, but just a personal tic on behalf of President Bush--one he had to justify by deceiving us and lying to us.

Thus OBL HAD to be located in Afghanistan/Pakistan area where the press had decided the "real" WOT was--and that the "real" WOT was restricted to that area. Therefore, going into Iraq was abandoning the WOT according to their tortured logic.

To their dismay the vast majority of the electorate didn't buy their BS and now it doesn't matter anymore because President Bush is in for four more years.

And not suffer the hearing loss I enjoy so much today? Not to mention having to learn how to read?

Yup, it didn't matter who - Al, Sammy, you name him. Kerry said we had him cornered and let him go. Bush even contracted out to let them go so that he wouldn't be blamed. Yup, Kerry peddled more than Katchup!

Got to agree, Iran is highly involved in the IRAQ terrorism. Might I suggest that the Iranians furnished most of the arms cache found in Falujah. The cache was termed enough to retake IRAQ. Therefore, I submit that we return those weapons to IRAN.

Yes, we still have some B-52s so let's use then to drop the arms, in crates, on Iran. Specifically, air drop the weapons to those Universities that seem to foment trouble against the Mullahs or whatever those towel heads call themselves. Perhaps they will get the idea then.

Huh indeed.

I have a friend who is a CWO4 dit hog.
He's being forced out this next spring just because he can't hear a 155mm howitzer anymore let alone dits.
He'll have given our nation 40 years service, and his ears.

Thank you Pete.
