It would be very good to refocus on Afghanistan in terms of going after terrorists rather than nationbuilding which is much more expensive. I don't know why the United States is supporting another corrupt foreign government, I guess the more things 'change' the more they stay the same. It makes sense to me that he's there because he doesn't want Afghanistan to be a success, it's easier for him to disrupt development in Afghanistan than Pakistan. Although they have caused a lot of problems in Pakistan. This is important information if it's true, it's not acceptable Bin Laden getting with 9/11.

BBC News - Bin Laden 'in Afghanistan in 2009'

A Taliban detainee in Pakistan claims to have information about Osama Bin Laden's whereabouts in January or February of this year.

"In 2009, in January or February I met this friend of mine. He said he had come from meeting Sheikh Osama, and he could arrange for me to meet him," he said.

According to the detainee, his contact is a Mehsud tribesman, responsible for getting al-Qaeda operatives based abroad to meetings with Bin Laden.

wonder what the neo-cons are going to say if he does get captured? any speechwriters working on that for them, how are they going to turn that into a problem?

Simple Ron.....if captured and tried ,as opposed to kill...any method President Obama chooses to prosecute ie: tribunal or civilian is all the opening they need.Wrong either way he goes.....Sanity will have 4 threads going before I wake up.

I'm a conservative that thinks that he is already dead..We are there to clean up the rest of the mess. I will also add that we will not be leaving in 18 months. It is the one thing that I agree with what Obama is doing.
