After Saddam's execution.. the question remains, What about Osama?

I know they still are, although the press doesnt really cover it, i know of some troops that are over there still fighting and looking for him. The media is very flaky, they only cover whats popular at the time

Excellent question. From the beginning of the american troops going to Iraq I was wondering what was the real reason they were in Iraq and did they forget about Osama bin Laden? I am one of those who doesnt believe the entire story that was fed to us on the news on 9/11. Osama's name was a ticket to get Bush into the middle east so that his buddy Cheyne could make the big bucks. They think the whole american public is gallable enough to go for that? Now the question arises. If Osama and his crew were responsible for 9/11 what in the world were they doing all the way in Iraq? If they found Sadaam in a hole why in the world havnt they caught Osama? Just a joke between my friends and myself" Osama is hiding in the whitehouse sippin tea"

I just want to say that i´m against the death penalty there´s allways gonna be a bad spell on us if this old tradition will live on. That´s my point,
it´s a shame that it hasn´t vanished yet´.

Bush in my eyes is also a terrorist, he´s no good for the world i can´t understand that he got president. We had lots of information about this war he´s fighting in our german tv and for me he and his leadership are evil aswell they are responsable for puting up these guys like Osama. We recived information in documentaions that the U.S. goverment knew about the twin tower threat and they just let it happen so they could go on with this war.

I hope you get it all right it´s hard for me to answer in english in german i could get it much better to the point, sorry about that.

i think he will never b caught he is very clever he is fooling everybody for so long n he will continue to do like this but if by chance he is caught he will suffer as the same as sadddam n his fate will b same as saddams

bin laden will follow saddam to hell my friend very soon have no fear

never compare osama wid saddam
osama is a mastermind
he can never be caught except he surrenders

Yaa now a days in the media we rarely hear of osama's name...but one day surely he will be caught and will be punished more severely than that of saddam.

wow,in all the excitement i almost forgot him...he may also be feeling that the media has lost interest in him..seems uncle sam has a little bit of memory lapse

Not that I am implying that this is the case, but I often wondered if Osama and his network of cronies did not have a lot to do with pointing focus on the louder, brasher Hussein. I feel like there may have been a guided effort to allow Hussein play the part of world's most evil man for a while so Osama could retreat into the comfort of having been all but forgotten.

The whole focus on Iraq was basically to divert attention from the embarrassing fact that the US had no idea of where bin Laden actually was, and even with all their super-duper spy satellites and intelligence operatives and troops they weren't able to flush him out and bring him to justice.

They knew where Saddam was, though, and even though he had nothing to do with it, they didn't like him very much anyway and wanted him gone. So they thought they could concentrate on bringing him down and the American public would be dumb enough to believe that he was a co-conspirator in 9/11, thus sating their thirst for revenge and making America feel good about itself. If they went on about Saddam enough, then everyone would forget about their utter failure to track down Osama.

Well, this worked to some extent. Like you say, nobody ever mentions Osama these days. And most of the public probably do believe that just because Saddam also happened to be a Muslim who hated America, he and Osama were best buddies. (They were from completely different and opposing sects of Islam, but it's not like Fox News cares about such details.) Unfortunately, thousands of troops and civilians have died unnecessarily just so Bush wouldn't have to deal with the humiliation of not being able to catch the person who was actually responsible for the 9/11 atrocities. Way to go.
