We heard so much about them before May 1st- The army could be in the vast, etensive tunnel systems or Saddam was hiding in them or the wmd were in them. And now, nothing........

Were they blown up?

Was the INTEL bad?!

Have you heard anything that I've missed? :shrug:

1. They disappeared with

Osama's Tora Bora fortress, that was stocked with tons of weapons and equipment.

The Lair of Bin Laden is a fictoid that originated in the highly-enterprising British press on November 27th, 2001. The chronology is as follows. On November 26th, the New York Times carried a story based on the account of an a ex-Russian soldier, Viktor Kutsenko, who had served in Afghanistan in the nineteen-eighties in which he claimed that there had seen an elaborate cave complex in Zhawar with "iron doors" that contained " a bakery, a hotel with overstuffed furniture, a hospital with an ultrasound machine, a library, a mosque, weapons of every imaginable stripe; a service bay with a World War II-era Soviet tank inside, in perfect running order." The historic story then added "Mr. bin Laden is reported to have upgraded both it and a nearby camp in the 1990's."

2. Thanks for reminding us

I remember one of the neo-con war-pushers prior to the war saying it (below Baghdad) was as extensive as the New York Subway - built by Germans - blah blah blah.

Our intel prior to going into the war was so bad - it's amazing more Americans haven't been killed.

Faith based intel.
