It always amazes me that
1. we find a realy good idea
2. the government rejects it (of course)
3. osama reads the news papaers (ever heard of the internet)
4. he then moves during the night..

I guarantee you he isnt living there right now..

He moved as soon as this story broke..

If these guys are right the expert on Fox right now basically is saying our Special Forces would be tripping over Osama..unlikely the other side of Clever hide in plain sight except Osama sticks out- tall so does his Taliban counter part, the one eyed mullah where is mullah Omar?

I think we should tag the ones we catch like animals “electronic” and allow them to escape, we follow them back to their rat holes. Actually everything we think of the experts have already. I don’t think these Professors introduced a new idea.

Wasn’t he just in Denver signing that stupid stimulus bill?

In 3 weeks, he has taken America apart financially.

33% chance of getting him? Hit them all and call it collateral damage. It is a war after all.

Gillespie’s methods are good but his facts are wrong. Rather they are fed into his methods to prove they can work (as the Professor notes with the Intel Communities data the numbers can be run again). It’s more likely than not that the dialysis machine theory is just a myth as Danger Room notes. Danger Room then seems to go off a cliff with their post, because, as I presume, Noah must have something against education in general…

In reality the Professor is on to something… but it’s up to the gov’t and peoples of all sorts and sizes to foster the idea than to squash it as “hilarious.”

TRacking powder. I’m convinced there a way to stripe areas with special dust to identify which area they frequent. Long story. Would take time, but hey, look how long its taken so far.

If Lawrence Wright is correct, the need for dialysis is untrue and simply an urban legend.

That’s great, perhaps we can capture him in time for the Democrats to elect him to Congress in 2010 (D-CA).

He’ll fit right into the Democrat Deranged Idiot Caucus.

Bin Laden died in Toro Boro region when we did the bombing campaign there in Dec 2001, because not a single verifiable tape or video of him has been seem since.

What about the propagandist Adam Gadhan don't they need their tech to get these slicker messages out? I thought the last we heard he got popped? I am saying if they are under constant hell fire SEE C.I.A. unmanned drones when could they replace him? There could be more then one reason propaganda tapes are not making it out into circulation.

Mathematical models used to explain how animal species spread out say he should be close to where he was last spotted.

Are they using the same computer models that were used in the global warming scam?

At nightfall, these gals are given a bottle of Capt Morgan and sent back to DVC until needed.

Wow Mike D, you’re really bringing back some memories for me. I grew up in that area and went to College Park HS, used to go to DVC’s football field on the off season with some pals from the hood to play some football…good times…good times.

how many hot women are there at Berkeley? Aren’t they mostly the kind that refuses to shave their legs/armpits? VanPalin on February 18, 2009 at 2:18 PM

There actually are a small but determined group of hot chicks at Berkeley. They get bussed in now & again for a few hours from nearby Diablo Valley College, to walk around campus while recruiting visits are going on. At nightfall, these gals are given a bottle of Capt Morgan and sent back to DVC until needed. The real question is of course, would this geography prof WANT the departmental ass he would get if he found ~~Obama~~ Osama? Seems to me like consigning someone to tap UCLA Geography Dept. tail would be a fate worse than Gitmo.

If this location does turn out to be where bin Laden is, we need not worry, because according to Helen Thomas this area is where only “so called terrorists” are…so we can all sleep tonight.

[...] From the Department of Redundancy Department: the Telegraph reports that a system used to track wild animals could help us find Osama bin Laden. They have taken factors into account for his reported need for dialysis, his cultural affinities, and the need for anonymity, and claim to have narrowed the search to three houses. Can a California geography professior and his team of mathematicians succeed where the CIA has not? [...] Read the rest » [...]

There have been no live videos of him since Tora Bora only still shots with audio. I would think if he were alive he would have issuing regular live videos to rally the jihadis. Zawahiri has had no trouble doing so nor have other AQ or Taliban leaders when they chose to.

I wouldn’t drop a missile on a house and kill women and children based on this analysis, though, and that’s the real question.

I would.
