Osomma Been Caught by US Troops?????

It was reported today that the US caught Osomma Bin Ladden. I dont know if it is true but the european news agencies are reporting this.

The US Denies it but that would be normal to deny it at this point in time. I guess we will just have to wait and see.

I doubt very much that if it were true we would deny it. A capture would be a good point to the re-election of Bush.

You guys can think what you want, but I guarantee the boys on the ground chasing his butt around are not working on any political schedule.

When they get the chance to take him down, they will.

I hope you all realize that i was being flippant with my remark of "Sounds like a plan" I fully agree with the statement that you have made. I just get tired of politics getting used and thrown into a situation that does not involve politics. In Afganistan our troops did in a few months what Russia tried to do for many years, and as I understand it other countries tried as well to no success. Our troops also did an amazing and heroic job in Iraq. I get tired of hearing policical moves to tear it apart and make it appear that thay have done a lessor job. In any war, troops are not part of politics, they just put their lives on the line following orders.

I very much agree.
I also get fed up with the group who say bush made up the story about the WMD.
These were talked about and photographed for 15 years.
They are HIDDEN .
