You might be right, I just hope Bush isnt trying to keep him in order to pull a October surprise.

Actually I going to have to agree with C\LT Henderson this time (thats a shock
). I think Bin laden Death would cause Turmoil in el Qaeda, at least in the short term. While bin Laden could easily be replaced and it his death wouldnt harm the ability to conduct operations, it would be a crushing blow to their morale.
His death of 'typhoid' got me thinking, this could be a set up. If Bin laden were to have been killed in a blaze of glory, it would have certainly encouraged more people in the Middle East to join al Qaeda, however if he were to 'die' of a disease (espically a contagious one) his death would be considered unremarkable. They are not trying just to kill the man, they want to kill his reputation.
Quite ingenious...
