The Death of Osama and Everything Else

Most gratifying dose of wisdom. Good to read.

It has become rather obvious to anyone who actually considers what happened at Tora-Bora that OBL got sealed up in one those caves, if he didn't just get whacked by a bomb outright.

I've been arguing to people for years that an egomaniac like that with such a messianic complex (See: Bonaparte, Napoleon) couldn't stay quiet, that he desperately has to have his limelight. I'm glad to see someone like Bill Whittle was thinking the same thing.

Of course he's dead. Either we killed him or a 'terror master' like Iran killed him to cover their tracks, either way he's still dead. I doubt we captured him, he probably wouldn't have allowed that in that he'd have himself killed before being captured. He'd have himself killed because like all the other terror master blowhards he's too cowardly to kill himself.
