Osama Bin Laden = CIA?

Maybe keep OBL's family alive so they (the family) can lead the military or CIA to OBL whereabouts. Sooner or later, one of them will want to get a message through. Just a thought.

Most of those terrorists groups have had cia training, because a lot of them have been used by us at times in the past.

Well...at one time we were helping old Saddam out during the Iran-Iraq war. So this isn't so hard to believe. Sometimes we are our own worst enemy.

agreed obl is cia. thinking all better say it loud, so that if ridge's warning is headed correctly!

Osama was fighting with the mujahideen. The Us provided logistics and training for the mujahideen, not to Osama directly. Osama had enough money to buy anything, he didn't need a paycheck from the CIA. We also supplied them with stinger missles and trained them how to use them because they were severely out matched by the soviets.

Osama wasn't then and isn't now a CIA operative. He has never been a big fan of America, just used us to help turn the tide in Afganistan. When he returned to saudi arabia he was not pleased with the ruling family and then he became very upset and called for the over throwing of the saudi government because they had agreed to let the US set up base there for the liberation of Kuwait.

And the rest is history!!!!!!!!

You know Adolph hitler lives in New York City!!!!!!!! He too was a CIA operative, along with Ho Chi Minh.

The CIA's extreme inability to comprehend the consequences of personalities and religion in the Middle East was put on dismal display by two historically disastrous alliances, both formed in the name of fighting communism, which would very publicly highlight two of the CIA's most lavishly funded employees � Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein.

Bin Laden was a member of a small army of Islamic Jihadists fighting the Soviet Union in Afghanistan during the 1980s. The strategic minds of the CIA decided that this whole jihad thing looked like a great idea, and provided funding and weaponry to the mujahideen fighters, hoping to enflame the global Muslim community into jihad against the Soviets. The success of that strategy speaks for itself.

osama's house sitting for bush until he can take another vacation.

Djarums and IMMORTAL

Thanks for the laugh!! That was too funny...

The C.I.A. trained Bin Laden to fight the soviets in Afghanastan, and gave them weapons. They created the taliban, but then binladen turned on them.

This war on terrorism is in a way a war on ourselves. We taught these "terrorist" in more way than one. We let them see how our most secretive organization in the world operates. Now they�re using the same tactics that they learned against us. Ironic huh?

Maybe Kennedy was right in his attempt at destroying the CIA
