Osama bin Laden...Remember him? Seven years after President Bush pledged to capture bin Laden "dead or alive," he is still at large. Or is he? We'll spend the hour talking about a man, who conspicuously, isn't in the news lately and ask the question, "Is Osama bin Laden "Dead or Alive"?

Forensics Expert Examines Authenticity of bin Laden Tapes

Is bin Laden Still Alive and Does it Matter?

Robert Baer's November 18, 2008 Time magazine article "When Will Obama Give Up the Bin Laden Ghost Hunt?"

Professor Hany Farid is totally unconvincing when trying to rebut the host's evidence that the latest bin Laden video (from 2007) suggests bin Laden is dead.  Later in the interview, he admits that he also works for federal law enforcement agencies.

Robert Baer also said he believes Bin Laden is dead in this video, though I did not transcribe that section of the interview.

After listening to this Worldview broadcast, I am seriously starting to believe that bin Laden is dead, or if not, completely incapacitated by his illness.

Truth unfolds in time through a communal process.
