I'm skeptical, but the date on this is rather old (2001). Should I get out the tinfoil?

Wouldn't suprise me. If we'd actually caught the little fvcker how could we have justified invading Iraq?

That whole story sounded a little off to me.

And it goes back a little further than Shrub..

It illustrates an enormous opportunity the Clinton administration had to kill or capture bin Laden. Critics call it a missed opportunity.

In the fall of 2000, in Afghanistan, unmanned, unarmed spy planes called Predators flew over known al-Qaida training camps. The pictures that were transmitted live to CIA headquarters show al-Qaida terrorists firing at targets, conducting military drills and then scattering on cue through the desert.

Also, that fall, the Predator captured even more extraordinary pictures — a tall figure in flowing white robes. Many intelligence analysts believed then and now it is bin Laden.
