CIA Reportedly Disbands Bin Laden Unit
CIA Reportedly Disbands Bin Laden Unit:
So where is Bin Laden? IMHO, holed up at home in Saudi, and issuing tapes whenever Bush needs a boost in his poll numbers. Call me a cynic, but this report shows that when Bush said he doesn't think about Osama Bin Laden, it is true. Why care Mr. Bush? You have other fish to fry, your Iraq war that was not necessary.
And....about North Korea? Gosh you think that's a problem?
"A CIA unit that had hunted for Osama bin Laden and his top deputies for a decade has been disbanded, according to a published report.
Citing unnamed intelligence officials, The New York Times reported Tuesday that the unit, known as 'Alec Station,' was shut down late last year. The decision to close the unit, which predated the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, was first reported Monday by National Public Radio.
Osama bin Laden speaks in this 1998 file photo at a meeting at an undisclosed location in Afghanistan. Bin Laden urged Iraqi militants in an Internet message Saturday July 1, 2006 to continue fighting the U.S.-led coalition in Baghdad, or else 'all the capitals in the region will fall to the crusaders.' The message also endorsed Abu Hamza al-Muhajer as the new leader for his terror network al-Qaida in Iraq, succeeding Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who was killed last month in a U.S. airstrike.

Bush said he was going to "smoke him out of his cave..."
But then, he's said a lot of things that he flip-flopped over later on.
got a handle on flip-flopping do ya?
Wait a sec, is this John Kerry?
nope, just another pissed off lib.

Rather than address the discrepancy, you immediately point someplace else. This has become part-n-parcel to current-day Republican thought. You can't run on your record because it's so abysmal.
In this particular case, Bush saying he'd smoke Bin Laden out, then saying he doesn't think much about him anymore, is complete and utter flip-flop. You have no valid response. Period.
Again, folks let's remember that Saddam Hussein had nothing whatsoever to do with 9-11. Flip flopping has nothing to do with anything at all, and the point is that although Osama Bin Laden admitted to planning 9-11, our Prez and our administration has not seen fit to go after him. It's a bit moronic to believe that Iraq has anything to do with 9-11, which is what is inferred here.
Read Cobra II for a perspective on the Iraq war. What you think you know.....is not the truth.
