    With all the calls for war...one question: WHO do you go to war against?

    As emotional a time as this is, everyone needs to remain logical. The people responsible for this are a (relatively) small group...not a nation, not even a religion (just an evil offshoot).

    The people in Afghanistan are treated like dogs by these people and the Government that harbours them. Women are shot dead in the street...people are executed in stadiums for 'entertainment'...you get the point.

    Go in tomorrow and bomb the crap out of the country...and 99% of the people who will be killed are the same people already suffering...

    The ruling Taliban movement...Bin Laden and his fanatics...they are ones who will have bunkers, have shelter...the ones who will flee to somewhere new and continue. The people who will die are the poor innocents who already suffer. The people who the Taliban government kill, the women they rape...the families they already rule in terror. They are the one's who will suffer...

    Don't worry, the United States is isolating Osama bin Laden as we speak, to get him out of the country. They came out and actually said that. Now he is on the run in the desert, and that's how we like it. They're going to get him alone, hunt him down like a dog, and put him to sleep. Enjoy hell you sick b*stard.

    I hope your right mate:)

    However...this guy has done things like this for years.

    If it is so easy to isolate him and kill him...why didn't that happen after he blew up the two US Embassies? Or after the naval ship incident?

    This guy is like a ghost...and he has fanatics all around him prepared to die to save him.

    Hey Rocks,

    Do you have a source on this?

    I wish I did, but I heard it on the news, but the sites don't have any information on it. Keep in mind there are so many things going on that they may have missed it, or it may be up later. The United States has known where Osama bin Laden has been for the last 8 years but wouldn't give the intelligence the permission to take him in. One of the intelligence officials was on T.V. yesterday, I believe it was Fox, and said that he has been frustrated because they have been tracking Laden's movement since 1993 and knew he would pull a terrorist attack but the government wouldn't give them the ok to take him down.
