Honestly fella's how much difference do you think it would make?

I say nothing, Al Queda is very organized(and very global) and has many men waiting in the ranks.

I seriously doubt if he was killed tomorrow that we would know about it.....his body would be dumped like so much feces....

That way he can't be a martyr.

Testing the fear meter lately? It is always a good seller. Always a demand. Sheep are easily convinced.

I personally have idea idea why the people think the capture of OBL will amount to anything.

It would have little immediate impact on Al Qaeda. He's the money man but Al Zawahiri is the brains of the outfit, from everything I've read. I would think that Al Zawahiri is the more valuable target.

Here's the thing about any sort of extremist: stamp out one, and ten rise to take his place. Martyrdom and desire for vengeance are powerful recruiting tools.

You would hear the sound of over 300 million people cheering.

terrorism is the problem not obl.

where are all the Liberals who were arguing Bush actually had him in custody prior to the election? Waiting to spring him as a last minute surpise, I guess they are all eating crow now.

some straw men are best left to rot in the field of nice trys

Killed would be worse than captured. He should die a lonely sad death of old age and humiliation. That would minimize the martyrdom and send a message to the radicals.

How can you guys suggest that the man who perpetrated the worst attack on US soil no longer matters. Symbolism over substance maybe, but when you have neither I'll take either. What kind of message does it send when this guy continues to go free after what he's done? You really think that he's NOT an asset to Al Quaeda?

A hear a lot of rage against terrorists but when you bring up their ring leader you guys have nothing? WTF

Well the vast left wing conspirocy group WAS throwing that around a LOT before the election.....Saying we captured him a long time ago and was hiding the fact to use to help the reelection bid........

Now they are pretending it never happened....

Like I was saying....if we killed him is being kept secret....a guy on the run but alive isn't a Martyr.....but a dead one....well thats something else.
