Dead or alive

This is not yet confirmed in any substantial way, but... an Al Queda web site is claiming that Osama bin Forgotten is dead.

A Web site claiming close ties to Al-Qaida has announced that the leader of the international terror network, Osama bin Laden, is dead, the London-based Arabic daily Asharq Al Awsat reported Friday.

The claim has not been confirmed.

"We have now found out this urgent news item, whereby the Al-Qaida organization has announced the death of bin Laden," read Thursday's message on the Web site, Manbar Ahal A-Suna V'al Jama'a.

Also uncofirmed are rumors that he died of boredom while waiting for Bush to finally find him.

So, if bin Laden dies of old age / natural causes, after a career of blowing up Americans and thumbing his nose at Bush's non-efforts to track him down... did he win?
