Musharraf Reveals New Bin Laden Intelligence

And we should believe Pres. Perv why? I hope our intel agencies are using Abu Graib techniques on this guy. That is about 15000 square miles! Thanks for the help moron…by the way, NASA sent Pakistan directions on how to get to the moon…”its up there”.

Hmmm. Did Iraq’s national security adviser, Mowaffak al-Rubaie, force this admission from Musharraf by releasing the Atiya Jazari letter that was captured on Zarqawi’s computer after his death?
In the letter, Jazari told Zarqawi that the “al Qaeda leadership *in Pakistan* and Afghanistan are unhappy with [al Qaeda in Iraq] methods in Iraq [and] criticized [its] method of selectively choosing brutality and violence over mercy and kindness.”

Perv is doin what he is supposed to do in this world. “Secure $$$ for his country and make sure Pakistan gets a half if not full piece of the regions exploding economy”. As far is Mr Bin Laden is concerned, even if he knew it he would haven been extremely stupid to hand him over because that would be the near end of “WAR ON TERRORISM” (even with a contiued violence)after which Pakistan would no longer be “USEFULL”. And Pakistan has learnt the lesson not to become useless, Unfortunate as it is!!!

I have had a chance to visit those areas and I can tell people that it is the most difficult area and is called tribal area as it has joined Pakistan under a treaty and is not an actual part of Pakistan and that is why the Government has partial control over that region. It is a very difficult area to handle due to its terrain and culture.

To my knowledge, I believed Bin Laden is hidden in Syria because
he wanna to get that closed with
the new government. Osama bin Laden
thinks he very intelligent but I’m
more intelligence than he is. I will
do everything in my power to stop
him from threaten our countries.
How? By praying to God. Smile!

It’s simple for the Republicans to get into power they need something that takes the heat out of what President Bush has presided over ie. Katrina, a record budget deficit, an unpopular war in Iraq, a resurgent Taliban in Afghanistan to name but a few. So do you really think the Bush administration is really interested in capturing Osama Bin Laden do you? If they did capture him who could they continue to wheel out and say “Vote for us because he is coming back and we are the guys that will protect you”. Just like they did on 9/11.
Also with Pakistan there is a further problem, Pakistan is a nuclear power.

Pakistan has struck deals with the terrorists; they are, in fact, harboring them in their country. Hello, Mr. Bush and Co., grab your nutsacks off the floor and come through on your promise to go after the terrorists AND the nations that harbor them.

Wow….that like saying you know that I live somewhere on the east coast. Good Lead!

Why in the world would we wait for Pakistan to go get the SOB?
Where is our will & resolve? Go back and watch the video of those planes hitting the towers!
Where are our leaders? Wouldn’t it be great to have MacArthur, Eisonhower and Patton leading this fight. You think OBL would still be around?

Okay, my thoughts are that now that this information is all over the news, it just gives Bin Laden’s people the heads up that we might be coming. I bet he is packing up and moving right now…so we might have had a chance at catching Bin Laden if President Pervez would have just told us this in private instead of blasting it all over the place and giving Bin Laden’s people the *nudge nudge* that it might be time to move again. Hop on your donkey, Bin Laden…it’s off to another mountainous region before we get you!

Now that Whitney is single, I think he might be in the U.S.

Why you English boozos don’t understand you are all demons and are destroying the earth you and your best friend Osaman Bin Ladin.
I have question for you fools why does Afghanistan still produce world’s largest production of poppy seeds, couldn’t America have by now sprayed some weed killer on this business by now? But we know better America’s true objectives.
Talking to a Christian is to talk to schizophrenic person who will deny the fact what he his.
We all natives have read your heinous bible and its heroes who practiced incest, rape, murder, genocide and all the crimes know to man, and understand what you very well are.
Don’t lie the world is millions of years old and if burning people at stake you learnt to read their books caused your progress still burning the bible is the highest morality please don’t deny this fact.

Guys, Afghanistan is a landlocked country. How do you suppose we would have gotten there without Pakistan’s permission back in 2001/2002? Musharaff only survived one attack because of a jammer that prevented a remote control detonation until after his convoy entourage had passed, and I believe a blown up gas station was involved in the other attack! Pashtun tribesmen predominate the western part of his country and the eastern part of Afghanistan, and aren’t particularly amenable to federal control by either country. He rules an Islamic nation whose people dislike us as much as any other Islamic nation. Considering the circumstances, I think we are pretty lucky he is in power. Would you rather have someone like Iran’s Ahmadinejad with his finger on Pakistan’s nuclear trigger?? It could very easily happen.
If he or we knew the exact location of bin Laden, I suspect a few Predator drones would be overhead posthaste with little protest from Musharaff.

what are we going to do when we get OBL, keep him alive and have several farcical trials against him like sadamn

I agree with Moleray – we have to keep our eyes on the BIG Picture – we are not only fighting a depraved enemy who cares little who they kill, but we also have an ememy that if they got their hands on a nuke would not hesitate to use it – on anyone – OBL is what he is a target of opportunity when we get credible intelligence and can accurately target him he will be dealt with. We get so wrapped in vengence that we are losing sight of the real goal – proctecting ourselves, and our allies from terrorist. OBL is not going anywhere, and if by chance he gets too bold you can bet there is a bullet or a bomb with his name on it.

I’ve heard terrorism pundits (yes, that’s now a career path) claim that if the U.S. attacked Bin Laden’s suspected location in Pakistan and succeeded in killing or capturing the world’s most wanted terrorist, Musharaff himself would be toppled and Pakistan would become the first Jihad state with nuclear weapons.
Does this make sense? Yes of course, the Islamic street would go nuts, with rioting and the usual burning and mayhem, but would Musharaff be toppled?
That concern is what the pundits claim has held the U.S. back from aggressively entering Pakistan and eliminating Bin Laden.
Any knowledgeable Pakistanis out there want to venture an opinion?

OBL has a lot of support in the areas he is hiding in, and no one near him is willing to expose him. The way he has operated clearly shows he is smart, canny, and dedicated to his cause. More importantly, he is able to call on a devoted disciple base to do what he needs to have done. I agree with the writer who points out that if OBL is caught or killed, the extremists who support him will go nuts and may very well precipitate the overthrow of musharraf. Then the options the Bush group would see would be invasion or targeted strikes on the Pakistani nukes. Do you really want to know where that will lead? I would rather my children grow up in a world that is troubled, has crazies in it, but where reasonable people are still left with options that don’t lead to one great conflagration after another and armageddon at last.

hey cole, how did we get there?….even though Afghanistan is landlocked, I’ve seen all these things in the air lately – I think they’re called planes or helicopters or something…anyway, I hear they can carry PEOPLE too! Just a guess……you idiot!

So he’s somewhere in Pakistan or Afghanistan. Quickly now we’ve got him cornered..

Mark, Pakistan created the Taliban not AQ…AQ in fact was around long before the Taliban was! Taliban was created long after WTC I, Kobar and the Cole.
Pakistan isn’t bending over backwards or doing EVERYTHING it can to help us fight the war on Terror…But they are doing a hell of a lot more than Iran, Syria, Suadi Arabia and France to help make the world secure from these terrorist islamic crusaders (which is what this really is all about!)
And I dismiss the suggestionn that we took our heavy hitters away from the hunt for OBL…That is nothing but political Dogma and we should stop Letting Howard Dean (and Karl Rove) think for us.

I’ll pose another Question…Would it be better to have OBL in custody and still be attacked or to have him on the run for the past 5 years without a single attack on US soil?
I was not all that enthusiastic about invading Iraq but this notion that it had nothing to do with 9/11 or terrorism is just plain bunk!
It has EVERYTHING to do with the War on Terror and 9/11 because if not for 9/11 it never would have been able sold to the american people!
It was an example of what will happen if you push us hard enough! Bombing Afghanistan into the Stone ages when it was already there was not going to deter anyone from attacking the US. a democracy in Afghanistan is not going to make any significant changes to the situation in the middle east. A Democracy smack in the middle of the two biggest sponsors of Terror in this world and one friend who could use a bit of democracy will have a much greater impact! And it showed other potential Saddams (like Assad and Kadaffy) that if they could be next if we were pushed to a certain point!
It is the invasion of Iraq that has put the biggest drain on terrorist resources and made some regimes a bit gun shy on helping anyone they think could make them a target. And believe me these countries know who is a problem and who is not better than we do!
We all would love to strangle BinLaden but truth is thats just one throat. I prefer we strangle them all!
We didn’t divert needed resources from getting bin Laden…if anything we diverted resources from the War on Terror just to try and capture a hide we can hang!
There is only one true barometer as to how the War on Terror is going…it has nothing to do with who we captured…
It has to do with what we have stopped! And we may not have OBL but we also have not been attacked again.And that to me is more important than getting a guy we can’t even torture once we do get him!

If you can’t find OBL and need to focus the voting American public on the “War on Terror” and get it off Bush’s “War of Choice,” simply leak information to the media that Osama Bin Laden died last month in Pakistan of typhoid. It’s there folks, in a French newspaper. I just read it.

Musharraf will never proactively go after bin Laden and why should he? The U.S. already gives his country plenty of aid and leverage for their nominal assistance in fighting the terrorists. His own people would quickly hunt down and kill him should he finger those responsible for hiding Bin Laden. He knows he’s got a sweet deal. Give the Yanks a few tasty bits of intel now and then and reap the rewards of having the world’s largest superpower as your wingman. He’d be a fool to give up Bin Laden with all the Muslims in his country that would be knocking on his door for payback. Let’s not pretend he’s the UK of the Middle East, he’s not. He’s playing the terrorist angle with us all the while selling nuclear know-how out the back door to Iran, Syria, Egypt, and whoever else is willing to pay.

So, if Osama could be allegedly in Pakistan, why isn’t this guy doing anything to catch him? Could it have anything to do with the former ISI cheif who wired $100,000 to Mohammed Atta?

iz he our hero o wot

Osama Has-Been Laden is the least of our problem. He is the puppet face for the ones really spearheading everything. Has anyone wondered why we haven’t won the war yet? It’s much easy to spy on your enemies in their own back yard — instead of your own. This war is very valuable in terms of its ability to flush out our real enemies.. as we’re finding out. The spiderweb is very tangled, indeed. The real question is, who is involved because they’re afraid NOT to, and whose heart is really invested in harming us? You can’t find that out over here.
