PBS.Frontline - Hunting Bin Laden (2000) from Paul Coker on Vimeo.
“Today, Usama Bin Laden is hiding somewhere in the mountains of Afghanistan;
according to the latest intelligence reports, he is increasingly isolated and possibly gravely ill.
The Saudi Government has attempted to negotiate his surrender, as has the US.
But it is not likely that the Taliban rulers of Afghanistan will give him up.
Such a move would be perceived as a betrayal.
And his capture may only create more trouble;
in recent months, with Bin Laden isolated and out of touch, US officials have reported a large increase in the number of serious terrorist threats against US installations worldwide.”

Report: Bin Laden Already Dead
Published December 26, 2001

Usama bin Laden has died a peaceful death due to an untreated lung complication, the Pakistan Observer reported, citing a Taliban leader who allegedly attended the funeral of the Al Qaeda leader.
"The Coalition troops are engaged in a mad search operation but they would never be able to fulfill their cherished goal of getting Usama alive or dead," the source said.
Bin Laden, according to the source, was suffering from a serious lung complication and succumbed to the disease in mid-December, in the vicinity of the Tora Bora mountains. The source claimed that bin Laden was laid to rest honorably in his last abode and his grave was made as per his Wahabi belief.
About 30 close associates of bin Laden in Al Qaeda, including his most trusted and personal bodyguards, his family members and some "Taliban friends," attended the funeral rites. A volley of bullets was also fired to pay final tribute to the "great leader."
The Taliban source who claims to have seen bin Laden's face before burial said "he looked pale ... but calm, relaxed and confident."
Asked whether bin Laden had any feelings of remorse before death, the source vehemently said "no." Instead, he said, bin Laden was proud that he succeeded in his mission of igniting awareness amongst Muslims about hegemonistic designs and conspiracies of "pagans" against Islam. Bin Laden, he said, held the view that the sacrifice of a few hundred people in Afghanistan was nothing, as those who laid their lives in creating an atmosphere of resistance will be adequately rewarded by Almighty Allah.
When asked where bin Laden was buried, the source said, "I am sure that like other places in Tora Bora, that particular place too must have vanished."

It's only a siege if you have the enemy surrounded on all four sides, not just three.
Otherwise you're just herding them.
