Pakistan’s President Says Bin Laden Could Be Dead

binladen3tAssorted bloggers and military analysts have been saying this for years, but this is the first time I’ve heard it from a Pakistani leader:

Pakistan’s President Asif Ali Zardari said on Monday that the whereabouts of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden remained a mystery and there was a suspicion that he could be dead.

Speaking to international media, Zardari said U.S. officials had told him that they had no trace of the al Qaeda chief, although they habitually say he is most likely in Pakistan.

Pakistan’s own intelligence agencies were no wiser, either, Zardari said.

“There is no news,” the president said. “They obviously feel that he does not exist anymore but that’s not confirmed, we can’t confirm that.”

Non story of the day?

  1. Right… he could be living in San Francisco, too. (Actually, that would be a very safe place for him.)

    Other nations will invent any excuse to prevent them from making the difficult choice to take action against world terror.

    If Pakistan wants to survive as a nation, they must get rid of the Taliban infiltrators and ensure that Bin Laden is either dead or in custody.

  3. The study of the name shows that in this world there is no such man as Osama bin Laden. So there is no necessity of looking for such a person, though in this world there are such organizations of terrorists under the name of a invented personality. Therefore I wish everyone in the world to pay more attention to whether you are doing good for the world instead of worrying about whether others might be doing good for you. Religiously or philosophically everything in the world is to be answered for. And don’t foreget that one good turn deserves another.

  5. The Copenhagen blame game shows that people have neglected their own duties to contribute to the protection of the environment. They are all calling on others to do more than themselves. This is a terror. This a terror to be far more terrible than the imaginations of Osama bin laden’s terrorism.

    Terrorism is relative just as poverty is relative.
    What is to be fought for is the soul to return.
    What is to be fought against is the heart to burn.

    Religion is a blame, but the blame is vain,
    Unless everyone in the world has equal gain.

    …that’s why so many terrorists have been affluent, well-educated individuals. Including bin Laden himself.
