Bin Laden’s time is running out

The US Senate has doubled the bounty on Osama bin Laden's head, increasing it to $50 million in the face of fears that al Qaeda is gaining strength.

That amount would make an everyday Iraqi or Afghanistan citizen a very wealthy person by any standard, let alone the near poverty level some of these people are living in. However, the question remains, is this enough?

I have had a major problem with bin Laden still running around free and able to do as he pleases. It was not that long ago that President Bush said, "Bring me the head of bin Laden" and meant every word of it. Here we are a few years later and for some reason the world's most wanted terrorist is not in the limelight as much as he once was.

If we think back to our hunt for the Iraqi terrorist, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, there was a tremendous amount of media paid to the possibility that America had made a deal with bin Laden for al-Zarqawi's head. Apparently, bin Laden was publically speaking highly of al-Zarqawi, calling him today's Salah al-Din, all the while, privately hating the attention and media coverage that al-Zarqawi was getting.

As a result of this split, rumors said that bin Laden cut a deal with the CIA for al-Zarqawi, giving him to America and in return, bin Laden be left alone. This could very well be based upon rumor and conjecture, or for that matter, the mutterings of a reporter that was taken out of context.

On the other hand, it could possibly have a shred of truth. Something, somewhere must have changed for President Bush to tone his rhetoric down, if not completely ignore bin Laden's existence.

Whatever the case may be, the man that America hates so badly is still among the living and it is about time he was brought to justice for his crimes against America, as well as humanity, or a special operations unit bring justice to him.

OBL has been nursin bad health in Pakistan and it has been thought that he would end his days on this earth in sufferin, and that it wouldnt be all that long till he "chilled" ..

By him bein in Pakistan it gives a whole different slant on takin his sorry ass out.. If we went into Pakistan and got the dirtbag, we would unleash a lot of heat on ol Pervy Boy.. Maybe even enuff to get him wasted in the process..

You see, ol Pervy Boy has nukes and as long as he has the keys for em we are better off than if he was gone and who-knows-who-else(maybe Zawahiri) had the keys..

The cost of takin out OBL in Pakistan is to hand terrorists the keys to a locked-and-loaded nuke ..

If Musharraf stops a bullet and we have to take over Pakistan, thats one thang.. But for us to hurry the process at this point in time and face the (D)s not lettin us go in and take control of the nukes, is a gamble that I thank the odds are stacked against us in..

Like G.H.W. Bush always said "just wouldnt be prudent" !!

But there have been rumors that Ol Pervy Boy has given his "go ahead" to cross-border missions by the U.S. into Pakistan for attacks on terrorist operations, and I would presume(and pray) that the U.S. would try to stretch that permission into the area where OBL is and put a stop to any and all of his brain functions !!

And you know, I really dont thank that bunch of P*****S in Congress have the B***S to crank up a Draft and agree to go into Pakistan to neutralize their nukes !! But it would answer the question of what we are gonna do about Iran, cause if we went into Pakistan we would have to make a clean-sweep of the M.E. and that would include Iran and most likely Syria before it was over.. Yep.. Another Wold War !!

The option of havin OBL still walkin around wastin good air is not a good one, but compared to what the other options are, it may not be as bad as it seems..

That made sense. It does look as though it is heating up there. We will see what happens.
