Osama bin Laden: Where's Osama?

"Whereabouts unknown"



Where's Osama?

Every so often, the question arises of where the al-Qaeda leader has vanished to.

bin Laden's whereabouts were a mystery as far back as 1999.

Osama bin Laden, the Saudi millionaire accused by the United States of plotting bomb attacks on two U.S. embassies in Africa, has left Afghanistan, Afghan sources said Saturday.

People have been asking the "Where's Osama?" question for awhile now. The CIA would like to know.

The question has inspired some take-offs.

There's several versions of the popular "Where's Waldo?" children's game out--on the Internet anyway--featuring the man who murdered almost 3000 people on September 11 2001.



The Iraqi version of "Where's Osama?"



Where's Osama?



Some commentators say that Osama Bin Laden is dead; that he's food for the worms. Others point to the stream of threats and instructions he's issued via videotape.

Every time a new Bin Laden tape appears, the questions start again.

Where's Osama?



Given the political outlook of most Hollywood celebrities, Osama should be a star in a motion picture.

what disguise the terrorist mastermind is using

Many have speculated that Osama is sick and tied to a kidney dialysis machine somewhere in a cave in Pakistan.

That might be true.

Or he might be dead.

Or, he may be alive and in disguise, living in the Middle East.

Although, with a price of $50 million on his head, surely some enterprising youngster would set himself up for life--if they knew where he was.

Even the Protesters wanted to know

At least one guy in the picture above has an idea for tracking bin Laden down in a hurry.

Although these pictures are amusing, the man they portray is not. However, it's said that one of the better ways to deal with stress is through humor.

So be it.

It's been 2372 days since September 11 2001. That's 6 years, 5 months, 29 days, including today.

2372 days since 2998 people from over 80 countries lost their lives.

Most of them were Americans.

Where's Osama?

It would be satisfying to know.

If he's found, his fate will most likely be anything but humorous.

Baby Grace is Madeline McCann? New Questions in Baby Grace Case

Several callers believe that the child's body may be that of Madeleine McCann, a 4-year-old British girl whose disappearance from a resort hotel in Portugal in May has made international headlines, Tuttoilmondo said.< (AP Photo)


Is Baby Grace Madeline McCann?

The strange sad case of the little girl found floating in Galveston Bay has taken another turn. Investigators have now said it's now possible that the body of Baby Grace could be that of McCann, who was abducted during a trip to Portugal earlier this year. Earlier reports had ruled out McCann.

More on this sad case and it's developments from the Galveston Daily News:

Investigators haven't formally ruled out the possibility that Baby
Grace is Madeline McCann, the 4-year-old British girl who went missing from her parent's Portuguese hotel room in May, Tuttoilmondo said. But he said despite an Internet effort to link the two, officers are fairly confident the child wasn't McCann. Sheriff's office detectives are collaborating with officials in Great Britain and Portugal to see if dental records and DNA tests can confirm the two cases are
separate.

"She's not off the radar yet," Tuttoilmondo said.

The cases are scattered across the country, he said. Detectives are also looking into the potential that the case could be international, even though the child was found wearing Target-brand clothing only sold in the United States.

Investigators haven’t formally ruled out the possibility that Baby Grace is Madeline McCann, the 4-year-old British girl who went missing from her parent’s Portuguese hotel room in May, Tuttoilmondo said.

Sheriff’s office detectives are collaborating with officials in Great Britain and Portugal to see if dental records and DNA tests can confirm the two cases are separate.

“She’s not off the radar yet,” Tuttoilmondo said.

Officers continue to receive hundreds of tips, something Tuttoilmondo said he hopes doesn’t stop.

“I’m just waiting for someone to make that call that tells us something that seems incredibly insignificant to them,” he said. “That could be the call that leads us to answers.”

Learning about how Baby Grace died is secondary to finding out who she is, Tuttoilmondo said. The final autopsy report is not yet complete, but once it is, the cause of death will be kept secret to prevent harm to the investigation, Tuttoilmondo said.

Preliminary reports said she had a skull fracture but did not identify that as what killed her.

The case has drawn worldwide attention as the authorities search for the whereabouts of one little girl whose name is known. And try to put a name to the yet-unknown little girl called "Baby Grace".

Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff’s office at 409-766-2222, the agency’s tip line at 866-248-8477 or any Crime Stoppers organization.
