Do you think Osama Bin Laden is still alive?

I know a couple new audio tapes came out recently where "he" is talking about things that are current, but I can't help but think that he is dead. With all the military activity, bombings, ect...I don't believe he is still alive. What do you all think?

    The topics don't even sound like something he would comment on.

    I say he is dead and they are using his reputation to keep the terrorism going.

    I think he is alive because islamic law requires notification and alqueda has never denied when one of its senior leaders die or are killed the hardcore muslims worldwide would celebrate his martyrdom

    he has evaded capture mostly because of the misdirection of resources from Afghanistan to Iraq...also he stopped using any kind modern technology long before 9/11 because he knows it can by tracked and the intelligence sources rarely provide any useful information on his location

    the tribal areas of afghanistan/pakistan where he is believed to be are remote and only accessible by helicopters if you tried to drive up you'd be spotted before you got close so the only way to get him would be predator drone strike

    but that area has plenty of mountainous caves, small villages and old fortress's where he hides and the tribal traditions are sanctuary and hospitality the tribes there will never betray him for the $25 million reward

    if I knew where he was dead or alive I would be 25 million dollars richer....(I think he's probably dead, but no proof)

    I reckon he's long dead, otherwise he'd be on the telly holding today's newspaper
