US forced to abandon hunt for bin Laden (Reuters article)

I was reading the LBN and came across this article. Made me so mad!! p(R)esident Bu*sh's administration parades around like they are hunting down terrorists and fighting a sophisticated war on terror, but that is just a bunch of right-wing propaganda. Anyways, here's the article from Reuters:

-----------------
(Excerpt)

Three years after Osama bin Laden fled American bombs in his Tora Bora hideout, the search for the world's most wanted man has all but come to a halt because of Pakistan's refusal to permit cross-border raids from Afghanistan, according to CIA officials.

4. Bush knows that Bin Laden DIED in Mid-December, 2001

Those video tapes we've been seeing, a lot of Arabic speakers are sure they are fakes. Check it out at: :evilgrin:

But this guy in Egypt isn't so sure. :eyes:

Then there's this<http://propagandamatrix.com/articles/december2004/131204blackboxes.htm>

I'm not sure what to think, if anyone can read and translate Arabic, is any of this being kicked around on Arabic Blogs?

8. You know, it is hard to believe that the US Military, surely the

cream of the crop sent out after OBLaden couldn't find him? With all their technology, training, etc. we are supposed to believe that. I have thought for awhile now that B* either didn't want to capture him...probably due to his ties with the Saudi family, or B* knows he is dead.

5. But what about the weed that would be king's battle cry

Remember 9/11?

Has he forgotten now that he has his "mandate"? Does he not care, or rather, did he ever care?

6. The haven't found OBL

Because they don't WANT to find him. Bush would be forced to kill his sugar daddy's son. He won't do that.

7. More Bush Shit

Osama Bin Laden
BUSH WANTS OSAMA DEAD OR ALIVE... "I want justice. And there's an old poster out West, I recall, that says, 'Wanted: Dead or Alive.'"

...BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT OSAMA "I don't know where he is.You know, I just don't spend that much time on him... I truly am not that concerned about him."
