where is osama?

[geggy]

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (Reuters) - Taliban chief Mullah Mohammad Omar has added to the mystery over Osama bin Laden, saying he hasn't seen his ally and fellow fugitive since U.S.-backed forces ousted the Taliban from Afghanistan in late 2001.

Where's Osama? (http://today.reuters.com/news/newsarticle.aspx?type=&storyid=2007-01-04T114359Z_01_ISL135273_RTRUKOC_0_US-OSAMA-TALIBAN.xml&src=/ActiveBuddy)

Alex Jones said the administration was going to "roll bin Laden out on ice" before the 2004 election. So I guess he's in a fridge somewhere.

[eeyore1954]

Alex Jones says he's "on ice." Alex said the administration was going to "roll bin Laden out on ice" before the 2004 election. I guess he's in a fridge somewhere.

They probably forgot where they hid him. I did the same thing with a couple of christmas presents this year.

I was informed by someone on the Loose Change Board that the FBI has known he was dead since Dec 2001. I was suspicious where this person got this info but then I realized I read it on the internet so it must be true!!

[PerryLogan]

They fake videos of him...then they let stories like this go out. Those silly conspirators just can't make up their minds.

[twinstead]

Alex Jones said the administration was going to "roll bin Laden out on ice" before the 2004 election. So I guess he's in a fridge somewhere.

I'm sure they were going to present Osama before the election, but since Jones said that, The Man realized that their deception had been discovered and decided to keep him 'on ice' longer.

When are the warriors of truth going to realize that whenever they tip their hands that they know what the NWO is going to do next, the NWO will simply change their tactics and make them look like idiots?

Either that or they really are idiots.

[geggy]

I'm sure alex jones was being sarcastic when he made the weekend at bernies reference. It's true that there have been numerous rumors circulating that he has died since as late as december 2001. No one knows for sure where he is so the only thing we can do is to speculate. He's alway popping up in and out of the public with video/audio tapes when the bush administration needed him the most. It's safe to say that it's beyond fact that osama, the public enemy #1, is too valuable to be captured for the bush admin so they allow him to remain free to keep the so called "war on terror" show running. If they're having such hard time finding osama, how did they come to have easily discovered and captured saddam when he was hiding 6 feet under? It's all politics.

[PerryLogan]

Sarcastic? Not at all. Alex repeated his story about "Osama on ice" several times. He even claimed a drunken administration official had blurted it out to him. It's just another Alex jones prediction that didn't come true.

[WildCat]

It's safe to say that it's beyond fact that osama, the public enemy #1, is too valuable to be captured for the bush admin so they allow him to remain free to keep the so called "war on terror" show running.
So, as soon as Bush is out Osama will reappear?

If they're having such hard time finding osama, how did they come to have easily discovered and captured saddam when he was hiding 6 feet under? It's all politics.
Because Osama had spent many, many years on the run in a culture that protects those seeking refuge.

Saddam had no such experience, and was surrounded by those who hated him and others who coveted the reward offered for info on his whereabouts.

How long was Eric Rudolph on the run, in our own country?

[Architect]

He's hiding out with Salman Rushdie, Shergar, and Elvis.....

...but Elvis blew it, he got a job down the chip shop and told Kirsty MacColl who he was.

[Gravy]

Alex Jones said the administration was going to "roll bin Laden out on ice" before the 2004 election. So I guess he's in a fridge somewhere.He must have been surprised when bin Laden rolled himself out (http://english.aljazeera.net/news/archive/archive?ArchiveId=7403).

geggy, why are you asking us where Osama is?

[CurtC]

He's hiding out with Salman Rushdie, Shergar, and Elvis...I'm not sure who Shergar is, but Rushdie is out and about nowadays. I heard a podcast of a talk he gave a couple of months ago. Interesting guy.

Why is it that you feel comfortable believing in rumors rather than facts?

No one knows for sure where he is so the only thing we can do is to speculate.
Or we can simply state that his location is unknown and was last reported to be in the Waziristan region of Pakistan.

He's alway popping up in and out of the public with video/audio tapes when the bush administration needed him the most.
Yes, the reminder that he had still yet to be captured only days before the 2004 election made the Bush administration appear so competent.

It's safe to say that it's beyond fact that osama, the public enemy #1, is too valuable to be captured for the bush admin so they allow him to remain free to keep the so called "war on terror" show running.
If by "safe" you mean "entirely incorrect" then I agree completely. If you wanted to take this from a completely hypothetical standpoint and we were to "make-believe" that the Bush administration were evil personified, you would quickly realize that it is exceedingly simple to capture Bin Laden to show that the administration is not simply a group of simple minded, incompetent boobs and then simply replace Bin Laden with yet another boogy man. The Bush administration has stated many times that capturing Bin Laden would not stop or even hinder Al-Qaeda. Most, if not all, experts agree with them. So why wouldn't they simply capture him right before the 2004 election, or right before the recent 2006 congressional election? It doesn't make sense.

If they're having such hard time finding osama, how did they come to have easily discovered and captured saddam when he was hiding 6 feet under? It's all politics.
You're comparing someone who's hated by millions in his own country to someone loved and idolized by millions across the Muslim world? Who do you think is most likely to be ratted out?

[CurtC]

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (Reuters) - Taliban chief Mullah Mohammad Omar has added to the mystery over Osama bin Laden, saying he hasn't seen his ally and fellow fugitive since U.S.-backed forces ousted the Taliban from Afghanistan in late 2001.So did this post break geggy's Streak of Wrong? He was going close to 350 consecutive posts, a Cal Ripken-like effort. This one is not really wrong, just unremarkable.

Or should we let the fact that he started a new thread about a completely unremarkable story count as being wrong?

[andyandy]

i saw him in Tesco in Nottingham. He was buying some Muller Light yoghurt.

My thoughts exactly Saddam was caught because he had too many enemies.

[60hzxtl]

I hope that Mullah Mohammad Omar will keep an eye out for Osama!

Everytime I look at Gravy's avatar, I see Dylan, and I know what the hangover looks like when you've been drunk with power.

[chacal]

Geggy if you really want to hunt down bin laden you need to read french newspapers. They find a new rumour about hes death every month. Just google "la mort d'oussama ben laden" or "oussama ben laden est-il mort" you'll find a whole reservoir of articles you can spin in to a CT. Just a few days back I saw something that was titled "la mort d'oussama ben laden n'intresse pas les etats-unis" though I can't find that now so looks like the CIA took it down. :D

[pgwenthold]

I'm cleaning the office today. It's POSSIBLE that I will come across him.

If I do, I'll throw him in the recycling bin with most of the other crap.

When you go beyond fact does it then become fiction.

Oh lookie, another post-and-run by geggy.

Go geggy go! Find that Ossama!

Mullah Omar, huh? Well I guess that settles it. If you can't trust the word of a reclusive militant guerrilla misogynist religious fanatic dictator, whom can you trust?

is geggy back on his "we cant find osama so lets accuse someone easier to catch" thing again?

So you're trying to make hay over Osama's whereabouts and the source you appear to trust on this issue is a man who uses 9 year old girls as currency?

[negativ]

9 year old girls as currency?I was going to try to come up with a wildly inappropriate one-liner that incorporated this concept and made use of the phrase "legal tender", but I failed. :(

How do you fit them into a money clip, or a wallet? :confused:

When my girl was 9, she sure didn't fit into my pocket!

[Sword_Of_Truth]

Pedophile gags that incorporate the appropriate level of contempt for the behavior and those who practice it are hard to pull off.

Alternatively, you could point out that Mullah Omar would literally beat his own grandmother to death with a rock for the "crime" of leaving the house without a hat and/or a male escort (a practice grotesquely titled as "honor killing" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honor_Killing))?

[hellaeon]

On a serious note aside from the snide remarks, it seems your clutching at straws geggy. Would you really take the word of the taliban chief as gospel? Im assuming your a westerner (whatever you may coin that as) so why would you expect anything of truth or respect from him?

Could you at least explain why you see this as something significant? I would say he is probably lying anyway but I have no proof and neither does he offer any except his word - how do you trust that? I certainly would not. Maybe its true? All we can do is speculate.

Why do you think he is alive? Why not dead?

Cheers

Or should we let the fact that he started a new thread about a completely unremarkable story count as being wrong?There's nothing wrong with the question per se, but there's a lot wrong with geggy asking it here.

1) He's JAQing off.
2) He's asked the same question several times and should know that we have no idea where Osama is.
3) He isn't just linking to the Reuters article as an interesting tidbit. He believes Omar.
4) He's not here for discussion.
Starting a thread about it doesn't help him either: is this all the ammo he's got? 351.

[uruk]

I believe Osama is some where on the planet earth. I do not believe any country in the Middle East has the capabilty for space travel yet.

I wouldn't be surprized if he's working as a cabbie somewhere.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (Reuters) - Taliban chief Mullah Mohammad Omar has added to the mystery over Osama bin Laden, saying he hasn't seen his ally and fellow fugitive since U.S.-backed forces ousted the Taliban from Afghanistan in late 2001.

Where's Osama? (http://today.reuters.com/news/newsarticle.aspx?type=&storyid=2007-01-04T114359Z_01_ISL135273_RTRUKOC_0_US-OSAMA-TALIBAN.xml&src=/ActiveBuddy)

Eric Rudolph, the Olympic Park Bomber, evaded his captors for five years and he ended up being captured not too far from where he was living.

So, if it took that much time to find him and arrest him, imagine how long it could take to find Usama. Pakistan won't let U.S. forces operate inside their country to search for UBL. That could be one of the many reasons why it has been such a difficult task to capture UBL.

[Dog Town]

In a mountain range, the size of California! Any more questions?

ETA: The OP is 351

[The Demon's Head]

It's true that there have been numerous rumors circulating that he has died since as late as december 2001.

If that were to have been true then there would have been an huge outpouring of extremists praising UBL as a martyr on varioius extremist websites.

No one knows for sure where he is so the only thing we can do is to speculate. He's alway popping up in and out of the public with video/audio tapes when the bush administration needed him the most.

Refer to my previous post in this thread about the location of UBL. UBL does stay aware of current events when he makes a new tape.

It's safe to say that it's beyond fact that osama, the public enemy #1, is too valuable to be captured for the bush admin so they allow him to remain free to keep the so called "war on terror" show running. If they're having such hard time finding osama, how did they come to have easily discovered and captured saddam when he was hiding 6 feet under? It's all politics.

If Usama is ever captured, it will be used much more as a PR victory for Bush. Al Qaeda probably would have someone ready in place to take UBL's spot as their leader if UBL is captured or dies of natural causes. Chances are that UBL has appointed a guard of his to take him out if the U.S. were near his location.

And again, please refer to my previous post about U.S. forces trying to track down UBL.

[orphia nay]

The leader of the Taliban says he hasn't seen the leader of Al Qaeda since the US invaded Afghanistan after 9/11/01. And there I was thinking they'd be drinking chai together every day since then at outdoor tea shops in Kabul. ;) :D

[PerryLogan]

I'm sure Osama is fine. Alex Jones says the secret ruling elite can live forever.

They can live forever...except when they die, you see.

Anyway, they can live forever, using life-extension technology that only Alex knows about. That's why they have openly announced they're going to kill 80% of us. Except only Alex can find these public announcements.

The bad guys tell you everything they're going to do on their SECRET WEBSITES. But only Alex Jones can find these websites. That's how he predicts the future.

But of course almost everyone in the world is too stupid to understand all this. Everyone has been dumbed down except a few angry white guys with IQ's in the mid-80's. They're the only ones in the world who see the secret takeover. It's up on the web, you know.

The Evil ones want to take our guns. They're using vaccines to kill us, but no one has noticed this but Alex. Black helicopters are real. Put on your hats. The government did it. Stop laughing.

The underlying argument that geggy believes his post supports is wrong. That's all I need to declare the streak unbroken.

Meanwhile, why is it that CTer's believe the "pregnant question" is an actual tool of logic? It's a defense attorney's trick - asking the listeners to imagine their own evidence.

Right next to alien body used in autopsy at Area 51.

I'm not sure who Shergar is, but Rushdie is out and about nowadays. I heard a podcast of a talk he gave a couple of months ago. Interesting guy.

Shergar was a racehorse, apparently kidnapped by the IRA, although no one knows for sure what happened to him, there is a pet shop in Belfast selling dog food for £30 000 a can. ;)

[Axiom_Blade]

He wouldn't be a martyr if he died of a weak kidney. Or tripped and fell off a ledge. Or...
Although, I guess al-Qaeda would attempt to concoct a conspiracy theory to make bin Laden LOOK like a martyr.

Them cultists sure love their conspiracy theories. Yessir.

If he died of Kidney failure he would be a martyr for organ donation or kidney disease. If he died by falling off a ledge he would be a martyr for safety at home or against extreme sports like terrorism.
