Bin Laden 'probably back home in US'

Dubai: If you ask people where they think Osama Bin Laden was hiding, the answer would inevitably be Afghanistan or Pakistan.

But for some reason, a large number of readers surveyed online believe he is hiding in the United States.

In the Gulf News online survey done on May 7, 30 per cent of the responders said Pakistan was the terrorist's likely hiding place. Only 12 per cent said Afghanistan, while 51 per cent said it was the United States.

To double check whether people on the streets are equally paranoid and think on the same lines, Gulf News caught some unwary shoppers and asked them the question. While some people said they would rather not comment on the subject, a large number also believe he is in the United States, as according to them, Bin Laden was once "created" by America.

1. smart folks
I imagine he could be at the crawford ranch yet I believe his tastes are a little more, uh refined.
Otherwise I think he is dead.

4. I've had this theory for a long time (1984 SPOILER)....
Remember how in 1984, Winston was trapped by a fake terror organization called "The Brotherhood"? What if the Saudis set up such an organization during Gulf War I to entrap enemies of the Royal Family? What if Bin Laden was either tricked or recruited to lead such an organization?

7. Bin Laden worked for the CIA when Russia occupied Afghanistan
there's no reason to believe that he ever stopped working for them... you know... once you're in, you never really leave.

10. If al Qaeda is an entrapment mechanism, several mysteries unravel:
Edited on Sat May-13-06 05:32 PM by Junkdrawer
1.) Those caught by this entrapment could never be released for fear that the secret would get out. Hence Gitmo.

2.) If the NeoCons needed a "modern Pearl Harbor", perhaps all they needed to do was put a call in to their Saudi friends. You know, Sen. Bob Graham maintains the Saudi Government paid several of the 9/11 hijackers and I find him credible.

16. That's one of the most logical theories I've heard in a long time
It would mean that the Taliban and most Al Qaida members did, as it has been said, want to attack/destroy America, and that 9/11 was carried out by... well, America-haters, for lack of a better word, but that they were being manipulated to do so by imperialist PNAC'ers.

19. It would also insulate the Bush administration...
although they seem to be involved with insuring that the "Saudi Op" was not detected/stopped by the FBI and/or the CIA.

Also, there's disturbing questions about military exercises that moved critical fighter jet assets from where they might have prevented some of the damage.

5. He's living in the poolhouse at Kennebunkport, 'til this thing dies
down a little. He even has his own cute Bushie nickname. They call him "Cousin Sami".

6. Bernie Ward's said this for a while...
...he thinks bin Laden's in Las Vegas, because he likes the heat. Nice hotel suite, orders out for his Elizabeth Arden facial care products so he can have that radiant glow when making his videos.

Too bad KGO and Bernie Ward's show forbade White Rose Society from archiving his past shows...that one was a KILLER.

9. And of course, if you're based in Vegas . . .
There's plenty of desert nearby whenever you need to shoot a video of yourself exhorting the faithful to kill some more women and children.

8. Well, as the saying goes ...
Sometimes, the best place to hide is in plain sight.

I wouldn't be surprised to find out that he's been sitting under our noses all this time, watching us tear ourselves apart without his having to lift another finger. Osama's a monster, but some of history's worst monsters have also been exceedingly clever people.

17. He's managing a Chili's out on the outer loop.
He's doing a good job. The food and service is good, and the health department rarely if ever cites it for violations.

Many fates could be worse than having to make sure pampered suburbanites have full bellies and frozen Margarita headaches. Tip your waitress infidel!

11. I never thought of Bib Laden possibly being in the US and more............
.....specifically Las Vegas but it certainly makes sense. It wouldn't surprise me if the WH Idiot planned and pulled off something like that either.

Plus there's his medical problems, dialysis I think and who knows what else. Las Vegas would be a good choice too.

13. I knew it!

Until President Bush decides the time is right to announce Osama's bin Laden's capture, he remains in a drug-induced coma in a secret room in the White House basement. :evilgrin:

Or how about Dick Cheney's undisclosed underground locations?

15. Area 51
Ok it is mainly know for flying saucers but the country side and security fits. Limo him out to some of the near by mountains, shoot a video and back to medical care at area 51.
