PARIS, France (CNN) – A report that Osama bin Laden is dead has set off a flurry of denials from U.S., French and Pakistani officials, who say the newspaper report citing French intelligence cannot be independently confirmed.
A Saudi intelligence official, however, told CNN on Saturday that the al Qaeda leader is suffering from a waterborne illness. There have been credible reports that the most wanted man in the world is ill, but there is no intelligence indicating he is dead, the source said.
so friends, the most wanted man in the world is dead?? or he is playing some new chal. what say??
^^ my guess this could be a ploy to get osama to release a new tape to tell the world he is not dead and this could in turn help republicans get elected in the midterm elections of 06
Hmm...I'm sure he will either release a tape or be dead during perhaps the midterm elections (prolly not), but Presidential Election in 2008, I'm almost certain.
what escapes me is that if these agencies know so much, why don't they try to locate and nab him. i mean how do you know that he's suffering from a waterbrone illness these days, or how the news of his death was carried to Saudis or French? how does aljazeera get hold of video tapes? theres got to be a trail. or they have just intercepted some communication?
or he is playing some new chal. what say??
