Did Osama bin Laden die of Typhoid earlier this month?
2007-06-20
It's possible, but I doubt it. There are so many rumors about his health, welfare, and whereabouts that he'll probably be dead for a coupla years before anyone really believes it. That's what he's trying for, anyway.

#18  Osama's verfied corpus delicti will settle all questions.* "ISLAM SHALL CONQUER THE WORLD" > IOW, iff one believes that the EARTH NATURALLY PRODUCES = REPLENISHES ITS OWN OIL, then ala GLOBAL WARMING + "OIL CATACLYSM/SHORTAGE", etc.Islamist preachers are basically arguing that AS CIVILIZATION DECLINES DUE TO LACK OF OIL AN AGE OF GLOBAL? BARBARISM = PRIMITIVISM = MEDIEVALISM WILL ENSUE. ISLAM MAY WIN BECUZ CAMELS, ETC. IN NEW FUTURE DARK AGE(S)DON'T DEPEND ON OIL. Radical Islam doesn't need a giant asteroid.

If he did (assuming he was still alive to begin with), hope it was very painful.

#15  I'd much rather he died of syphilis, and that it took 24 long, painful months. Sepsis is also a good cause of death. Now if we could only find a way to inject Zawahiri with polonium...

#14  Find his dead bones and then hang his bones. Let the swine use his bones for toothpicks--if they will.

#13  I maybe channeling my tin foil hat but I still think we bagged his a*s at Tora Bora. I don't buy the voice only messages. I believe his head in a freezer deep inside the Petagon.

I know some would say no way but you would have to agree if Bin Laden was confirmed dead the gen pop would have forgotten the WOT long before they did with him out there threating still.

#12  LOL ... notice how the Binny's death would be a blow to those "sloganising Neo-cons."

#9  Not shot like a soldier, but hanged like the brigand he is.

#8  I'm afrain lead poisioning might make him a martyr.

I hope - like the old soldier he is - that he just "fades away".

Apologies to the late General Douglas Mac Arthur.

#2  I hope he's still alive. I want him to die of lead poisoning, if you get my drift.

#1  I hope not. I am hoping he takes a frag round in the groin.
