The next day (...Osama is still out there)

The war is now getting into a new stage: find osama and arrest him. The talibans are defeatted and Northern Alliance is taking control of the country (if this is possible! since numerous tribe leaders want the credit for the victory-Russia,Iran and of course, Pakistan influence significant percentages of the afgani population-not to mention US presence in the area!). Thus, it is more than clear that nothing is permanent in this country-who wants to abandon his influence in such a rich-in-oil ground , in such a great crossroad of world trade. But, let's see how this new war phase is about to be..

1 -Imagine Osama is tracked down in his cave while raping a young afgani girl over her bourga.US forces arrest him in the name of humanity and take him back to Washington DC to convict him for the death of over 2000 American citizens.Is there any optimist in this world who claims that the US embassies won't be burned down? Is there anyone who believes that such a trial can be held without endangering anything that is American and can breathe? No trial to be - at least not one on American grounds.So, Osama goes to Belgium?in the same cell with his friend Milosevic? No, Osama helped the Albanians, so it is rather unprobable-not to say dangerous(for Bin Laden of course!!!) Not to France too, Carlos would apply for it ,but for the french authorities that would be too much! So,since England is out of the question ,Germany fucked up with the palestinians in the Olympics, i see of no better solution than not to trial Osama!So, what about Osama? Perhaps it is more than certain that if US warriors(!) find him alive ,the official State-of-Department declaration will be that: he was shot down by US commandoes while trying to stagger his friend Mula Omar on his back. Thus , US army saved the unshaved Taliban leader, who from now on will be praying to Allah for the wellbeing of George W.Bush!

2 -Imagine Osama is already dead (perhaps committed suicide ,perhaps shot by a devoted comrade).Elite US forces enter the cave and film his dead body-(believe me, they always carry a camera with them, just in case Mariah Carrey comes to sing...). Through satellite, the NY head quarters get the film and everyone feels the joy... But then Osama becomes an Islamic martyr, a hero for every Palestinian bomber , the Arab Che... A new round of terrorism begins, this time against all the Christian nations, not US only , since the Christians united with the Jews against the muslims... Anyhow, I do not believe that Osama will be caught alive, it is to noones interest. I BELIEVE THAT OSAMA DOESN'T WANT HIS BODY TO BE FOUND AND, ON THE OTHER HAND, I THINK THAT A PICTURE OF HIM DEAD IS WHAT PRESIDENT BUSH LIVES FOR-no matter if it is a fake one..... And it the body that will determine the real winner of this war....
