I don't think the Indians would have any qualms about bumping them off...

I don't think Bin Laden is in Jalalabad or Kandahar, he is out somewhere in the styx, or out of Afghanistan altogether by now. The bombs will have been a bit too close for comfort. Question is, where could he be now, it is very probable he may have fled the country...

But I just can't see any country sheltering him. They know they will get the Taleban treatment of they do.

I am guessing Bin Laden is in Jalabad. It would make sense, as it is right next to Kashmir, which might make a nice escape route...

The rebels there let the Taliban go WITH THEIR WEAPONS. Not only that, the rebels there are Pushtuns and very friendly to the Taliban, warning the NA not to enter the area.

That's pretty smart, seeing as how Kashmir is a very hot area, it's gonna take some political smarts for any force to go in there...


The "rebels" are old time Mujaheddin leader Younus Khalis and his Hezeb-e Islami group. They're locals, but can't be considered rebels in any real sense - they're as pro bin Laden and anti-west as the Taleban, but a core group of real fighters local to the area.

Tired of ads?

I am now a little more worried about losing this bet. The quick military collapse of the Taliban didn't surprise me but I'm a little concerned that OBL is A. Going to get snuffed by a lucky shot/air strike or B. Is going to make a suicidal last stand somewhere.

Aside from those 2 possibilities, I still think he'll get away and if he does, will still be at large come April.

Just a thought...if Afghani ppl were having an avatar contest about the capture of one of our leaders or celebrities, we'd all probably think they were heathens. :-/

From CNN:

quote:
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The United States believes opposition fighters and U.S. troops have surrounded Osama bin Laden in a cave complex near Tora Bora, a senior military official told CNN Thursday.

The official would not be specific about the size of the area bin Laden was believed to be in.


Which avatar did you choose for AH, mtg?

Avatars are out, the loser has to post a picture of himself. But I think MtG was leaning towards him using a pot of glue as an avatar Or a horse's rear end

Gonna be a long four months. Best you can hope for is the body doesn't get found. But OBL is SOL, and soon, he's going to be one dead SOB.
