20. Bin Laden hasn't been captured because they don't want to capture him
There would be no more justification for what Rumsfeld called "the long war," the war which will not be won in our lifetimes, and which will justify $400 billion plus defense spending for the forseeable future.

The military had bin Laden cornered in Tora Bora and the administration purposely pulled back to allow him to be ferried out by the Pakistani military.
