Bin Laden may be in city, not cave: ex-spy chief »

Posted by: STONERS 2 years, 1 month ago

Osama bin Laden could hide more easily in a city than a remote tribal region, a former Pakistani intelligence chief said on Tuesday, challenging the notion that the al Qaeda leader is probably holed up in a mountain cave.

    "Why not a big city? Anywhere in Pakistan, Afghanistan. Anywhere outside the region where it is easier to keep cover," he said. "These are the places where you can hide yourself much better."

    "Other top al Qaeda figures associated with the September 11 attacks have been captured in Pakistani cities -- alleged plotter Ramzi Binalshibh in Karachi in September 2002 and self-confessed plan mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in Rawalpindi in March 2003."

      For all we know, Bush could be hiding OBL out in the White House.

        That could just be another move to try and hit Pakistani cities just like the tribal areas.

          Lets look at it for what it really is. OBL is rich and with a cause that he sees worth voicing and fighting for. The people of the middle east are not going to turn him over. There is more to the relationship of Bush and OBL than meets the eye. Makes you wonder if there a woman involved.

            I think he is in a cave somewhere holding a letter and an autographed picture of President Bush.

                Osama bin Laden is dead, and and he was a six foot six, Arabic speaking foreigner, whose voice is well known. There is also a twenty-five million dollar reward, which no one has claimed in six years.

                A high ranking Taliban official announced Osama's death on December 16, 2001, and I see no reason to doubt it, considering his health at the time. The only way he could possibly still be alive is if he underwent a kidney transplant. That would require that he live in a major city, but none of the Osamas, since December 16, 2001, resemble each other, much less the real Osama.

                      Well markoller is right on target! I've said in subsequent articles in the past about "Osucky Baloney" that he's quite dead, it's not just my opinion, it's also the opinion Israel's Mossad thinks so too, and they know scum like him.

                        I thought Osama Bin Laden was an urban legend. Some say he might even be a CIA created bogeyman made to scare U.S. citizens into relinquishing freedoms and rights. ;)

                          I remember a news cast where they said that they received word that OBL was dead and had been buried for three months in a secret location. The news people said that the authorities would have to check it out and see the body and zip nothing was else was never said. That was a couple of years back. He probably got a look at his rewards and they must have not been prime time. So he changed his mind and lived.

                              But they aren't in office now nor have they been for the last 6 years if I am not mistaken, right?

                                No. He is who we should be going after instead of wasting our resources and destroying a non-threatening sovreign nation.

                                  I am surprised nobody even mentioned that he may be with family members at their mansions. The Bin Laden Group is a very powerful entity.

                                    If we had kept our focus on Afghanistan like we should have in the first place, we would have caught him by now. But Bush was never about catching Bin Laden. Bush was about Bush and Cheney's pockets being lined for the rest of their lives.
