Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden?

Just saw the new movie/documentary by Morgan Spurlock of TV's 30 Days fame (on FX, available via iTunes, too) at one of my favorite theaters, Norfolk's NARO.


You can view photos and trailers at IMDB. It's definitely worth a trip to the theater! I was touched at Spurlock's thoughtfulness and tenderness. He shows the Muslim and Jewish worlds in such a new light, one that the mainstream media doesn't allow you and me to see. And, they're just like you and me. The Global War on Terror (GWOT) seems so ridiculous after seeing this work.

If only the $500 Billion plus (yes, with a B) that's been spent on GWOT could have spent on EDUCATION and ECONOMIC opportunity for countries like Egypt, Israel, Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan... how different ~ and better ~ would the world's view of America, and you and me, be?

And, as for the question "Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden?" I don't really care anymore.
