I am totally confused about the United States not being able to capture Osama bin Laden!  Doesn't the United States have the most military resources of any country on the planet? 

Osama showed up again on the anniversary of 9/11 on video tape again.  Supposedly, he is taking refuge in the mountains of Pakistan.  He is supposed to be the target of all of the efforts in the "Battle on Terror", but yet he has not been caught.

Our military has some of the highest trained military specialists that could meld into any society and get whoever they want.  I have met a few of these people and the skill set that they possess is beyond our wildest imagination!  They have the ability to kill anyone, anywhere, and at anytime!  Why hasn't it happened yet?

Now I know the politics are in play and that we the U.S. government is trying to diplomatically work with countries in the region to capture him, but like I said, it has not happened yet! 

I guess the real question that keeps popping up in my head is why is the U.S. government trying to keep him alive?  Is it a front to keep the pressure up in the region to keep wars going?  With him gone, there would be absolutely no reason for the U.S. military to be there.  Is it for the poppy production in the region, that has turned into a bumper crop, that is generating more money then we can imagine?  It is money that the CIA probably uses for its covert operations. 

I would like to know why you think he has not been captured.  It is a situation that baffles me to no end.  If the U.S. government is trying to not capture him, why are the U.S. citizens putting up with this?

Inquiring minds want to know!
