Useless bravado! As useless as the threats from this supposed OBL. How exactly is he surviving in a cave high in the mountains of Waziristan when he supposedly needs kidney treatments, even possibly dialysis?

These are all idle threats until somebody truly crazy gets the bomb and decides that the supposed afterlife awaiting is preferable to life on this planet and then makes that decision for the rest of us. Religious belief will be the likely catalyst.

And remember all of the al-Qaeda cells we were warned about after 9/11? Where are they now and why have they sat idle for nearly 6 years? After Madrid and Bali pretty much silence. Did they all go to Iraq to fight with the offshoot branch? A very ineffective group regardless.

Because, if the left wing extremists want to admit it or not, the policy of the Bush administration of fighting the fight "on their turf" has worked!

Well, if your call bleeding us to death with a thousand cuts "success", you have never heard of Pyrrhic victories.

The three trillion dollar war

The cost of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts have grown to staggering proportions

The Bush Administration was wrong about the benefits of the war and it was wrong about the costs of the war....

They have been going to Iraq to try and stop the country from ruling itself with a form of democracy. That is what Osama said was the highest priority.

Regardless of what you think Osama Bin Laden

may or may not have said, the country will never

rule itself so long as we are there and in charge.
