Guest a mystery man Posted June 25, 2005 so, which of these iconic bastards will be the first to pop their clogs ? on the one hand we must consider that bin laden`s whereabouts are unknown and that when he dies, we may not even know about it. but, on the other hand, saddam is (at least until his trial) in a much safer environment, i.e. by safer I mean that the americans will merely mock him, degrade him and maybe occasionally piss in his face, rather than actually trying to kill him. And bear in mind that his trial seems to be indefinitely postponed until Iraq is in a better condition, so at the current rate it will be several years before he stands trial and is eventually executed. nevertheless, i predict bin laden to outlive saddam. unfortunately, bush will probably outlive everyone, the arsehole. what do you all think? a mystery man.

I think if you are British (English? What is the correct term) as is evidenced by 'Pop their clogs' and 'arsehole' then you need to focus more on your esteemed leader Tony Blair instead of our divine St. George. Beyond that, it seems you have some rather severe anger issues which need to be resolved. As I have indicated in the past it was actually Jimmy Carter who began the entire Hussein and Bin Laden fiasco when he allowed the Iran hostage crisis to take over the airwaves. Let me explain this for you: Iran was bad in those days and so the U.S. and other nations armed Iraq with vast supplies of weapons, later Iraq became the enemy and we armed Iran. So, from this series of events we are able to conclude that if Jimmy Carter had not wrestled the election from Gerald Ford then the only people involved currently in Iraq and the subsequent hunt for Osama (occasionally know as Usama) Bin Laden, would be British and Greek troops (and possibly Albanians). I myself like Georgie, it is one of the best Vodkas on the market at a price that is affordable without the side effect of spitting your eyes out as it makes its way into your intestines. I also like George Bush, although the younger is less attractive than his father, he is a much more intelligent and thoughtful leader. Can you say the same about your Mr. Blair in comparison to his predecessors? And another thing: Saddam is not really who you keep seeing. They keep showing pictures of Saddam's long lost half brother Tariq. Take a good close look and you'll realize the eye color isnnot quite right and the ear lobes are different as well.

Banshees Scream 110 Posted June 25, 2005 It's hard to say. Saddam is older and is in jail and could possibly get the death penalty. Then Bin Ladin is still on the run and his whereabouts are unknown. Sooner or later it's a great possibility that Bin Ladin will be found and most likely shot even though i think the orders were to be have him brought back alive. I'm sure some American soldier will just kill him in the spur of the moment. Then you think there's a chance Osama may not be found at all? Hell chances are he could be dead allready? "Which i doubt" It's a tough call. But because Saddam is older and was recently ill and because of the possible death penalty i'll go with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
football_fan 42 Posted June 25, 2005 Bin Laden could already be dead. There have always been rumors of him dying after being injured in the “Toro Boro” battle more than 3 years ago. As for Saddam Hussein, he will probably be dead within a year or so after he is tried and executed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrunoBrimley 86 Posted June 26, 2005 W as intelligent and thoughtful. Hmm. He's been called many things, but I dare say those two adjectives may have never before been used to describe him or his presidency. Only because he's a modest man and people don't wish to bother him with pesky celebrity styled floodlights (although the Clinton family adores those perks). Well, I'm off to my retreat in Kennebunkport. Sure hope Neil and Jeb are there this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bald rick 9 Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) And if there is another Osama thread, which I'm sure there is, and this should be merged, could a skilled mod please do so. I did a search for it but couldn't find it. So, you're admitting you're an unskilled mod. How very modern of you to admit it...

Guest Mr Magoo Posted September 14, 2005 The battle of Toro Boro sounds more like a lawn mower (http://www.toro.com) race on Teeside. Wasn't that the long running fight between lawn mower companies for the Middlesbrough contract to keep the Riverside Stadium supplied with grass cutting machines?

Captain Oates 21 Posted September 14, 2005 Don't ask a musician which one of that pair ought to go first..... Q. If you were in a room with Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, and a conductor, and you had a gun with only two bullets, who would youshoot? A. The conductor. Twice.
