S. Asia Quake Hits Area Where Osama Hides- Yahoo News
By KATHERINE SHRADER, Associated Press Writer
1 hour, 47 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - No evidence suggests that the deadly earthquake that rocked Pakistan on Saturday injured or killed the world's top terror leader, Osama bin Laden.

The quake shook the border region of Afghanistan and Pakistan, where bin Laden is believed to be hiding. However, authorities at this point have no information indicating he's been injured or killed, said a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the information's sensitivity.

Bin Laden guided the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks aimed at New York City and Washington.

U.S. hopes for bin Laden's death or capture were high in December 2001, when U.S. and Afghan troops surrounded a cave complex sheltering al-Qaida members in Afghanistan's Tora Bora region. But bin Laden escaped and is now believed to be living a relatively isolated existence to evade capture.

He was last seen publicly on a videotaped message before the November 2004 elections.

What a bunch of crap, they have no idea or will ever know where this guy is! Sick, just sick.

3. How Many Americans Are Glad
for the quake like some of Al Queda was glad about Katrina?

I bet there are at least a few, Pat Robertson comes to mind.
He probably thinks this is punishment.

4. If they know where Osamie is hidin', why not kill him?

I think that article, from a web site that's often *-friendly enough, is not worthy of our time.

5. That was actually one of my first thoughts -- that it's precisely the area
where he is rumored to be.

6. You know what the worst part of this article is?
"Bin Laden guided the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks aimed at New York City and Washington."

They have to REMIND us who he is? WHO do they think has forgotten, aside from Republican voters?

10. the fundies will be slow to claim their god's
responsibility in the earthquake. if bin ladin is not be killed, it will disprove their belief that this is god's way of protecting the usa (which is obviously having trouble protecting itself).
