Sniffing at the heels of Ben Laden

TV is reporting this AM that we may have a good idea of the vicinity in which Osama BL is staying. Presuming that is true, there are several possibilities. One is that we could send in a drone and blow him and his entire group of hangers-on to smitherenes with the possibility that we could never prove we actually 'got him'. Second, we could surround his group and quite possibly kill most of them including him in a fire fight. The he is a martyr. Third, he could be so near capture that he might take his own life. Again, martyr. Fourth, we could actually capture the piece of scum. Great risk of retaliatory strikes and hostage taking in hopes of trade.
All of these outcomes could be classified as 'good' or 'better'. Which do you think the BEST outcome might be? (There may be others I have not listed.)

I think his head ought to be pickled and brought back like they did in the Roman days. That way we would have no doubt.
If he killed himself, would he still get into heaven according to his beliefs?

I'm not too concerned about his destiny after he leaves this planet! Just GO already!

Bush asked for (and got) a prime time news confrence covered by the networks. Think he's going to pull a Tom Clancy and drop a laser guided bomb down Osama's chiminey? :D

What ever happened to that osama bin lottery thing? Remember? where you could bet on when he'd get whacked. I think it might be time to toss in a few bucks.
