Holy freaking schneike! No, this doesn't mean bin Laden has the bomb. What it does mean is that state sponsors of terror, like Pakistan was (and to a lesser extent
) the motivation if not the means of passing on WMD to terrorist organizations.

No it's not. But it's a new revelation about a very old meeting. So, we shouldn't get too uptight about what we cannot change. In the future, though, let's not take such revelations as lightly as we did in the past 20 years.

Mike Scheuer, who knows Osama better than anyone, said that invading Iraq has been a godsend to Bin Laden's groupies. The British Parliament echoes Scheuer's sentiments in saying, "Excessive use by the U.S. forces of overwhelming firepower has also been counterproductive, provoking antagonism toward the coalition among ordinary Iraqis". Basically, we, the United States are funding and operating a massive terrorist training camp over there, drawing in violence and chaos. Zarqawi, motivated to avenge Abu Ghraib's sickening prisoner abuse, has attacked the prison twice in two days.
Stories of the G.I. scooping brains out of a skull with a spoon is not helping matters, especially when such deviant behavior is unpunished.

He is under house arrest in Pakistan and kept from talking to U.S. investigators.

>>>"Stories of the G.I. scooping brains out of a skull with a spoon is not helping matters, especially when such deviant behavior is unpunished."
Collin,
because they are precisely that, just stories. Stories propagated by fools. Sorry, I don't mean to insult you, it's not my style. But there's no better word for someone who believes and then propagates such nonsense. And by stating that GIs should be "punished" you go beyond merely passing on hearsay. You're claiming the truth of the matter.

Collin,
this sounds very likely. Do you have a link?

Rusty,
can you verify that U.S. officials have been kept from talking to him? That's what you said.

Per the New Kerala of India:
"United States intelligence agencies have attempted to interview Khan about his activities but Musharraf - who pardoned Khan in 2004 for illegally selling the nuclear goods and put him under house arrest - has refused to allow the US access to him. Even publicly, Musharraf has acknowledged that he cannot allow this questioning as it would jeopardize his own position considering the esteem in which Khan is held by the general public."
