I wonder what this will mean.

//edit:


    The area is under surveillance from a satellite while forces await orders, the newspaper said in its early Sunday edition, AFP reported. Bin Laden's whereabouts had been discovered from ``a combination of CIA paramilitaries and special forces, plus image analysis by geographers and soil experts,'' the newspaper reported, AFP said.


They don't seem to be hedging. I wonder if they really know for sure...?

Much like the IRS being the one's to get Capone, what happens if it turns out the soil experts are the one's to get Bin Laden?

The Express isn't exactly a valued source over here. They were the guys to spearhead a campaign to scrap the TV license fee after the BBC sacked one of their presenters for calling all Arabs "limb amputators and woman repressors" in his newspaper column. Now if the Telegraph or even the Mail had reported it...those are conservative papers you can take to the bank.

Really, The Mail? Surely they're too busy deciding what reduces house prices, what causes cancer and just how evil working mothers are to be bothered by this "reporting" you speak of.

See, I figured Bloomberg had already done a sanity check before running it (which was the second retelling? Sheesh).

My bad.
