At a time where the world is gearing for a war with bin Laden and his terrorist organizations all across the world. As of today the entire world is with the United States in such a war, with Pakistan as the sole country recognizing the Taliban. Yes, it's remarkable how the attacks have affected us all, but none as much as the news I laid hands on today.

MI6 is tracking bin Laden.

Yes, that's right, MI6, as in the agency that 007 works for. According to PM Tony Blair, a specıalıst group of MI6 agents, a four man team having been placed in Afghanistan in late 1999, has been following bin Laden's ever-changing location since the attacks. At the present time he cannot say where he is exactly.

I love it. They know basically where he is and it's known that the SAS are in the area and are tracking him too.

I wouldn't want to be bin Laden right now.

Queer name that. I think he should have his bin emptied if it's so laden with rubbish

Oh you're soooooo funny. You're so funny you made that Johnny Carson joke with Yasser Arafat look lame. Just kidding. But hey, maybe a fan fiction story can come out of this. 007 leads task force against Al-Queda. ... That's MY story idea, I thought of it first.
