Iran`s state radio says Osama bin Laden captured

(Adds confirmation)
Tehran, Feb 28, IRNA -- Iran`s state radio has quoted an informed
source as saying that Osama bin Laden had been captured in a tribal
region in Pakistan.
The radio`s external service, broadcast in Pushtun, said US
Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld`s trip to Pakistan on Thursday
had been made in connection with the capture.
The radio said, "The capture of the al-Qaeda leader has been made
sometime before, but (US President George W.) Bush is intending to
announce it when the American presidential election is held."
Contacted by IRNA, an IRIB announcer at the Pusthtun service,
confirmed the news, which he said, they had got from a `very reliable
source` in Peshawar, Pakistan.
"Osama bin Laden has been arrested a long time ago, but (US
President George W.) Bush is intending to use it for propaganda
maneuvering in the presidential election," he said.
Osama`s head on a platter is believed to be a big boost to Bush`s
presidential chances, which are increasingly being eclipsed by
Democratic presidential front-runner John Kerry.
The Saudi-born dissident is accused of masterminding the September
11, 2001 attacks on American landmarks in New York and Washington.
Visiting Kabul on Thursday, Rumsfeld said he believes Osama will
be caught, but has no idea when.

C'mon, Hydraulic, Iranian radio ?!? Be serious... :}

Might as well read the Weekly World News! :ok:

Plus, I know Osama is doing well, I get emails from him all the time. He's somewhere on the outskirts of Leeds, in a place called Morley!

Cheers! M2

Whilst I doubt there is anyone in the civilised western world who would not be deeply joyed to see dusty bin in "our hands" none of us could even begin believe that GW would be daft enough to have followed the script suggested in HPT's post :8

Nice thought tho' :E

And I'm the tooth fairy!!! Come on people, OBL will never be caught alive. The sooner that commanders accept this fact, the quicker we can get our guys and gals out of dangers way. The war on terrorism can never be won, but how many brave lives have to be sacrificed before the "nobs" capitulate?

I am with kenny on this one.

Dusty bin is toast and the "dish cloths" are going to lead us a merry dance in the search of him. In the meantime, in order that a few political animals can stay at the top of the heap, lots of serrvice peep's are going to be needlessly sacrifced to prove "phoney and the other feckwit" were right.

I love the queens shilling but it doesnt make what we are doing right:(
