Does anyone else think Osama is dead?

You know, I just can't get over the feeling that he is lying beneath the rubble of a mountain in Afghanistan. I can see how dangerous it would be for us to say he was dead without being 100% sure because he could always pop up on TV with a newspaper.

They were going to release an audio tape of him calling on more attacks against American interests about a month ago but even Al Jazeera wouldn't air it because it was one they had already heard.

I just find it hard to believe that in the last three years, he has done nothing to definitively prove that he is alive. Imagine what that would do for Al Queda's recruiting if he was more than just a myth

I have thought that he has been dead since the battle in the mountains.

I think he's alive and doing quite well.....unfortunitly

nope, he is still alive.

[tinfoil hat]He will be 'captured' next year, after bush signs the new AWB, before the election, and bush will sail right into a second term[/tinfoil hat]

D E A D but what does it matter? Some other little puke will/has popped up and taken control. Looks like they're trying to get a hold of new stomping grounds in Pakistan and their nukes. This thing is far from over...

Dead until I see some type of new video. Damn an audio tape, they all sound alike anyway. Just my 2¢.

I read somewhere that the Dems think we have him detained and will "capture" him like we did Saddam. Only we'll wait until right before election. I think the person whowas accused of saying it was Madeline Albright. But I may be wrong. That's just too funny!

Yeah I think he is, one or more of his sons are running it. They won't admit that Osama is dead yet since his sons don't have the same cred on the Arab Street. However, as soon as they feel they have accomplished something, they boy will come forward and take the credit in his own name, and announce it was in revenge for the father.

Since they haven't been accomplishing jack shit as of late that hasn't happened.

I thought he was in need of dialysis? I guess you could truck or jeep transport one of those, but it seems like he'd need to be at least in some kind of village and the temptation of that reward money might be tough, particularly after Saddam got ratted out.

He's dead. If he was alive, he would show it by holding up a newspaper infront of a camera instead of having tapes broadcast.

I think he's dead. Buried in a mountain cave somewhere in Trashcanistan.

If he wasnt dead, he'd be on Al Jizz In Yer Ear A TV every couple nights, bragging about how the most powerful military in the world cant bag him, one lone little raghead.

We officially think he's still alive, they have been looking for him in the Pakistan/Afghanhistn border area since 2001...

If we thought he was dead, WE would do the 'Ding dong the witch is dead' thing all over TV...

He's alive.

As for his kidney trouble, this guy has enough money to buy himself a dialisis machine, generator, and pay a personal surgeon to run the thing... He's probably lying in a bunker somewhere, on the box, and too weak (or possibly perminantly injured/deformed by close contact with one of our 'care packages') to appear on TV...

He has released further video in the last year, however it was not concrete, could have been pre-taped, and he did nothing to convince the world that it was not (IIRC, he made references to Iraq, but even a blind man could have seen that war coming)...

I'd say there's a 30% chance he's dead. Goes up by about 10% per year without an authenticated video.

I think he's holed up way deep somewhere. Probably in Pakistan. Although he may be walkin east to get over to Indonesia, disguised as a camel herder on some caravan. Keepin his mouth shut. Trying to get out of Afghanistan or Pakistan if he thinks he can't keep buying protection.

If things keep happening in Pakistan, somebody is going to go after him. The Pak Army needs to decide who they want to eventually side with. And then he will either permanently disappear quietly or will show up just long enough to show he is in fact alive and will swallow a Tomahawk.

On a serious note, I believe our spec ops are watching him right now, gathering intel.When the time comes, they'll nail him.Osama is a slick MF unlike Saddam.Remember, there is an Osama Jr. somewhere setting up shop.
