well, i believe it's possible to change it for somewhere else, or i could fake some sort of illness (i have a history of asthma) and get a doctors note to get the insurance. I know that's not exactly honest, but still....

ha, nothing like killing a bunch of innocent people and cutting off the electricity of the rest of innocents in the city. Yeah, I'm proud of a country that can blow up people that haven't done anything and live in constant fear of the Taliban. Hooray for our president, Howdy Doody, for learning how to fire a gun... even if it's a sawed off shotgun and kills off 2 innocents for every criminal. Let's just say I'll be more impressed when we figure out how to kill individual targets without incurring any extraneous casualties. I'll be interested to learn the afghani death toll on this one, though they probably wont be kind enough to break it up into both "enemies" and "Taliban-fearing bystanders."

While I agree with you emotionally... Killing him creates a martyr. Catching him, trying him, and killing him shows him for the criminal he is.

Exactly. Try him in the Hague, then throw him into a cell with Carlos the Jackal. The two of them can spend the rest of their days playing checkers and cornholing each other.

WHY?!?!

Just kill the fool...

Also, no matter how much proof we have that he was killed in an attack, without an identifiable body, he becomes a legend instead of a dead terrorist criminal.

So? Kill all his friends too...

koppel: did you even go indepth in the coverage? They bombed the training camps and other well-known taliban headquarters, not civilian houses and villages. Its not like they cut off the electricity fo ALL of Afghanistan. Not to mention that they are bringing food for the afghanistan civilians

The USSR recovered Hitler's remains, and Russia still has them. Rumors, are rumors.

Also most people in Afghanistan didnt have power to begin with so that hardly effects the vast majority afghan people. Heck we will be dropping food and medication during daybreak hours, bombinb attacking at night. As for killing innoccents. Its ALWAYS been a fact of war. ALWAYS. Not just since Vietnam like some have said.

Tie bin laden up, smash his arms and legs to a pulp, pull out his finger/toe nails, let crows pick out his eyes, skin his testes, perform biological/chemical weapons tests on him, let him recover for a few days, only to repeat process.

Bin Laden's brother is the only family member that has remained in the U.S. He's living in Cambridge and gave an interview to the Boston Globe.

Very informative article...

Bin Laden finally did a pseudo-admission for the WTC - "the Islamic Vanguard" was responsible.

That was a good article... Apparently he corrupted the family name... So I hope they are not giving him any more money...

Yes that's a major positive. When the Kosovo conflict started, there were what 100,000 refuges all huddled up initially without any aid whatsoever. Very poor planning. Here they already had camps setup on the borders and food drops are regular. If the situation was reversed, I don't see the Talibad dropping in food for our civilians.

Yea, I didn't see them offer to send aid over to those who were hurt and killed in the WTC attacks...

"Islamic Vanguard"

Not surprising he would say that. They are fairly moderate and are based in Pakistan I believe. The Taliban and Bin Laden are so angry that we have support from Pakistan they would do ANYTHING to sever that.

Wont be long before we here the Taliban pleading that he relocated to inside Pakistan to divide that nation even further.
