October Surprise: China gives bin Laden to Bush?
From http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article7077.htm:

During the home stretch of the Northamerican elections, Osama bin Laden could prove to be the ace in the sleeve of president Bush. As we speak, Washington is negotiating a highly secretive agreement with Beijing, the Chinese capital, for the eviction of bin Laden from his sanctuary in the turbulent Muslim provinces of China, in the Northwest of the Great Wall nation.

More than five million people, many of them fanatic followers of Osama, live in that region, which can be called one of the most volatile regions of Earth. Thousands of them work for the mafias who specialize in the trafficking of humans and drugs to the West. Last summer, Bin Laden sealed an agreement with the authorities in Beijing, in which he was granted asylum in return for his guarantees that the guerilla war of the Muslim Chinese against the Chinese nation would end.

Over the years, tens of thousands of troops of the Popular Liberation Armee had been sent to the region with the intent to squash the insurgents.

Since the arrival of the Saudi Osama Bin Laden, the region has been relatively quiet, and the Muslims who live there are allowed to continue their trafficking of humans and drugs.

However, Bin Laden could now see himself trapped in his refuge, if an extraordinary agreement between Beijing and Washington would come to pass, in which China would hand over to the United States the most wanted terrorist in the world.

The capture of Bin Laden would virtually guarantee the reelection of George Bush Jr., as it would confirm to the millions of undecided voters of the U.S. that the war against terrorism was judstified after Bin Laden had authorized the attacks of 9/11 against New York and Washington.

1. I hate to say it
...even though people would see it as a political stunt on the part of Dim Son and Oil dick, they'd still be scammed by it.

SOMEONE has got to ask, so, how long did they know he was hiding out in China?
Since way before we blasted Afgh*nistan and Ir*q into a hole? hmmmm?

I personally believe this is the stuff of urban legends.

2. Article is pure speculation.
It doesn't pretend to be anything more. In other words, it's electrons wasted.

6. Cool: Another way we are dependent on China
If it is not loans or industry, China has to fight terrorism for us.
