CIA: If Caught, Bin Laden Would Be Sent to Guantanamo Bay - FoxNews.com

I post a link to this article as a joke. Bin Laden has been dead since late 2001 and everyone in the world has been knowledgeable about this except the United States citizenry. Pakistani candidate Bhutto was assassinated after she spoke in depth about this and gave the man's name that murdered him in a televised interview. She then felt the CIA or others would then turn to her. Weeks later she proved to be right.

The videos that you have seen and audio that you have heard were all fakes to perpetuate the so called war on terror. Halliburton and Raytheon have generated this fake boogeyman to continue the rape on the US economy by funding their military industrial complex.

Here's the beginning of the propaganda article trying to make you believe that the boogeyman, Usama Bin Laden, still lurks out there trying to kill you and your family:

WASHINGTON -- What would the government do if Usama bin Laden, an FBI most-wanted terrorist for more than a decade, were captured?

Washington is abuzz about questions whether bin Laden would ever see the inside of an American courtroom or where he might be imprisoned if he doesn't stand trial. The discussion, which on Wednesday bounced from Capitol Hill to the White House, is still mostly an academic exercise because there is no suggestion that the government is any closer to finding or capturing bin Laden, believed to be hiding in Pakistan.

For years, President Barack Obama's administration has maintained that criminal courts were more than equipped to handle even the most serious terror cases, but when faced with that question Wednesday during a Senate hearing, CIA Director Leon Panetta said the administration probably would just send bin Laden to the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

That suggests that, at least under current U.S. law, bin Laden would never be transferred to U.S. soil to be tried in the civilian court system. Congress last year ordered that no federal money could be spent to ship prisoners from Guantanamo Bay to the U.S. mainland.

Bin Laden, who has evaded capture for more than 10 years, has been indicted and could stand trial in New York City.

Panetta's remarks indicate that given the choice, Obama would opt to use the Bush administration policy that the president has long criticized.

National Intelligence Director James Clapper told senators if bin Laden was caught, there likely would be a debate about whether to try him.

These plans were not echoed by the White House.

"The president remains committed to closing the prison at Guantanamo Bay because as our military commanders have made clear, it's a national security priority to do so," spokesman Jay Carney said when asked about this. "I'm not going to speculate about what, you know, would happen if we were to capture Usama bin Laden."

Attorney General Eric Holder has been asked a similar question which he deflected, saying he hoped the U.S. will capture and interrogate bin Laden, but he doesn't expect the Al Qaeda leader will be taken alive.

The varied answers from Obama administration officials show that nearly 10 years after the worst terror attack on U.S. soil, there is still not a clear message for what to do with the people behind it. So far, no one has been prosecuted for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Panetta and Clapper offered their plans in response to a hypothetical question from the top Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee, Sen. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia. Chambliss asked what the government would do if it captured two of America's most wanted terrorists -- bin Laden and his deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri.

"We would probably move them quickly into military jurisdiction at Bagram (in Afghanistan) for questioning, and then eventually move them probably to Guantanamo," Panetta said.
Clapper said, "If we were to capture either one of those two luminaries -- if I can use that term -- I think that that would probably be a matter of some interagency discussions as to what their ultimate disposition would be and whether they would be tried or not."
