Re: Bin Laden Trail 'Stone Cold' http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...0901105_pf.html<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The clandestine U.S. commandos whose job is to capture or kill Osama bin Laden have not received a credible lead in more than two years. Nothing from the vast U.S. intelligence world -- no tips from informants, no snippets from electronic intercepts, no points on any satellite image -- has led them anywhere near the al-Qaeda leader, according to U.S. and Pakistani officials."The handful of assets we have have given us nothing close to real-time intelligence" that could have led to his capture, said one counterterrorism official, who said the trail, despite the most extensive manhunt in U.S. history, has gone "stone cold."But in the last three months, following a request from President Bush to "flood the zone," the CIA has sharply increased the number of intelligence officers and assets devoted to the pursuit of bin Laden. The intelligence officers will team with the military's secretive Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) and with more resources from the National Security Agency and other intelligence agencies.The problem, former and current counterterrorism officials say, is that no one is certain where the "zone" is."Here you've got a guy who's gone off the net and is hiding in some of the most formidable terrain in one of the most remote parts of the world surrounded by people he trusts implicitly," said T. McCreary, spokesman for the National Counterterrorism Center. "And he stays off the net and is probably not mobile. That's an extremely difficult problem."</div>
Re: Bin Laden Trail 'Stone Cold' Bin Laden is the ani-christ. That's the only reason I can think of why he hasn't been captured yet.

Re: Bin Laden Trail 'Stone Cold' BCB you go live in caves for 5+ years and then we'll see if you're alive. Limited food, and more importantly disease. What Rok said I think there could be a chance hes dead

A man like him and in his situation would not be allowed to starve to death.

Who knows. Do I think he's dead, probably not but you can't rule it out.
