" WASHNGTON — Days after his boss said that there was no new intelligence on the whereabouts of al Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan told Congress Tuesday that killing or capturing bin Laden is critical to defeating the terrorist organization.

Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the top Afghanistan commander, said, however, that he could not promise that his new military strategy would lead to bin Laden's capture because when the al Qaida leader moves outside of Afghanistan, chasing after him "is outside my mandate.""

Note: But....Osama bin Laden has been dead since December 2001...oh well - we all know the war is about opium and pipeline stuff - and the bin Laden thing is a lie fed to the American public to get the war going. It would be nice if the warmongers could, just out of respect for the public which they have none, would at least get their stories straight. But they have no respect for the American public - they just need to get on with their war regardless of facts - just keep the propaganda going while our roads go unplowed. What a joke.
