The NHL doesn't have that type of power.

It's not the NHL. It's Gary Bettman.

Bettman is the NHL, according to disgruntled fans.

If OBL has Marfans... then i deduce that Fotze has Tourettes.

While tall, gangly looking folk may have Marfans... a vast majority of them do not.

Old dumb argument you have. Here's how it goes, when something good happens in the NHL, isn't Bettman great. When things go wrong, it's the NHL and Bettman is just taking orders.
You can't have it both ways.

This could be the source to the myth of the dialysis:

http://www.twincities.com/ci_18009626?nclick_check=1

Quote:
Was bin Laden on dialysis?
During nearly a decade that bin Laden spent in hiding, one persistent story was that he took dialysis, which requires a steady stream of medical supplies and well-maintained equipment. Former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf told CNN in 2002 that he thought bin Laden was dead of kidney failure.
Obviously, bin Laden lived until Sunday — and there have been no reports of any unusual medical equipment, dialysis or diabetic supplies in his home.
ABC said video it obtained of what appears to have been bin Laden's room shows "petroleum jelly, eye drops, olive oil, sunflower oil, an antiseptic and a nasal spray."
"It was a myth from the very beginning," Cannistraro said of the dialysis stories. "He was poisoned at one point by Saudi intelligence, which gave him kidney failure temporarily. But he was treated for it, and he never required dialysis."
I am really glad he had all kinds of petroleum jelly, though.

Ironically enough, the original information on Bin Laden was gleamed from someone in Guantanamo Bay. IIRC that is.

The stunning stupidity of this thread (or at least, parts within) is epic.

I have to keep reminding myself that although not everyone thinks the same, some don't think very much.

But it probably wasn't the reporter they kept there for years to see how Aljazeera worked.

Perhaps they had reason to believe the reporter was doing more than reporting.

A little OT, but this is a very cool article on the use of dogs in the operation. I had no idea dogs were used by the military - although it makes sense now
