Ever been to Afghanistan? There are tribal regions in which even the Taleban thugs generally can't or won't venture into (due to the extremely hostile climate and locals). If Bin-Laden is among the mountain people (where he spent most of the 80's, when he wasn't being trained by the CIA to fight the Russians) - then finding him simply won't happen until he is turned over. Some of these places are off the radar - literally - and our satellite recon is sketchy.

And one thing can be bet upon: the locals hate Americans far more than they ever will the ruling Muslims. They won't give him up. Likely he floats between there and Pakistan at will. And good luck in a war with Pakistan.

That or he is some actor the CIA sticks on a soundstage and infront of a video camera to further scare Americans into complicity and justify the Bush administration's criminal and amoral actions.

And we're not the most powerful nation on earth. China is. With India close behind. Wake up and smell the good Ganga and Nepal hash.

The 'why we can't find Bin Laden after 10 years' thread Anyone have some reasons why the most powerful country on this planet can't find one very rich person who keeps making videos and spreads them to the media.....? Do we really want this man dead or what? Maybe why this took place: "former President George H. W. Bush attended an investment meeting at the Washington, D.C. Ritz-Carlton hotel on September 10, 2001 and in particular a meeting with Shafiq bin Laden, representing joint interests of the Saudi Binladin Group and Carlyle" Bin Laden Rating: 5
