WTF - Osama Dead?!
Every once in a while a small headline detail will catch your attention. You know, like Osama bin Laden is dead.
That’s what Michael Ledeen is shopping in his latest column. Of course, the chances of that proving accurate are about as likely as Tom Cruise auditioning for Brokeback Mountain 2. But wouldn’t it be nice? The part about Osama rotting in the Iranian desert, I mean. From Ledeen:
“According to Iranians I trust, Osama bin Laden finally departed this world in mid-December. The al Qaeda leader died of kidney failure and was buried in Iran, where he had spent most of his time since the destruction of al Qaeda in Afghanistan. The Iranians who reported this note that this year’s message in conjunction with the Muslim Haj came from his number two, Ayman al-Zawahiri, for the first time.”
