Bin Laden Alive and Well

If a TV reporter can interview a guy who says he knows where bin Laden is, why can't the CIA?

Bin Laden alive and well (thanks readers):

Osama bin Laden is alive and in good health, as is fugitive Taliban chief Mullah Mohammed Omar, a purported senior commander of the ousted Afghan religious militia said in a TV interview broadcast Wednesday. Pakistan's Geo television broadcast the interview with a man it identified as Taliban military commander Mullah Akhtar Usmani, a former Afghan aviation minister who said he still receives instructions from Omar.

1 "If a TV reporter can interview a guy who says he knows where bin Laden is, why can't the CIA?" He's more valuable to US self-interests alive than dead. While he's alive, most military operations are justifiable. Once he's captured, all bets are off. Mind you, I still think a plausible scenario is he'll be captured a few months before Bush's term ends - you know, just to keep the good feelings alive for whoever the GOP candidate will be.

2 That is one of the most tin-foil-hat inspired theories I've ever heard.

3 Meh the "self" in "self-interests" was redundant. Apologies.

7 in a way isnt it better if he is alive, but always on the run....this way he cant really organize his people as affectively as he could from some safe and secure place...dead, well the islamic freakoids would only see him as some super martyer and would want revenge is such a way that they would try something stupid and spectacular

8 He's hiding on his secret moon base where he's working on his jihad death-ray. Oh, and he has a miniature clone of himself now, and has taken to wearing a silver colored foil suit with a Neru jacket.
