U.S raises Bin Laden reward
http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/?sid=308847

A further incentive has been offered by the U.S for the capture of Osama Bin Laden.

A bill approved by the U.S House of Representatives has increased the reward for anyone helping to capture or kill the world's most wanted terrorist to US$50 million.

The bill is entitled: Justice for Osama Bin Laden and Other Leaders of Al Qaeda.

3. Hoping someone else will catch him because our forces are guarding the oil.

The Bush cabal let him get away at Tora Bora because the Iraqi oil was more important.

Maybe after the reward is raised, Blackwater will turn up with the body.

6. 50 million
With the way the dollar is plunging soon the 50 will not be worth what the 25 was. Maybe if they offered 200 lbs. of gold they would get some takers.

9. Are we looking for him again?
I can never keep it straight.

10. IMHO
Edited on Fri Dec-14-07 12:01 AM by spag68
The worst case is that one of OBLs buddy's bring him in and get the money. 50 million more for terrorists, and we have a hot potato on our hands that will set the middle east on fire. Any way he is probably dead.
