US 'no closer to finding Bin Laden' despite Oprah appearance

The top US commander in Afghanistan has admitted that he 'hasn't the faintest idea' where Osama Bin Laden is just hours after the al-Qaeda leader gave the clearest indication yet of his whereabouts by appearing on the Oprah Winfrey Show...


Beardy evil man Bin Laden has been in hiding for eight years during which time the US has waged war on terror and beards. Despite displacing the Taliban and capturing Justin-Lee Collins, the primary objective remains at large.

That seemed likely to change when Bin Laden's agent surprised many by signing his reclusive client up for an interview with forthright TV mainstay Oprah in Chicago on Sunday.

After some early jeers, Bin Laden charmed Oprah and the crowd before performing a duet with Taylor Swift, but then he seemed to disappear into thin air.

"We certainly had a read on Bin Laden's whereabouts last Sunday," General Stanley McChrystal admitted with a sigh.

"We were all waiting outside Harpo Studios but he must have slipped out with that entourage of his.

"Now, if it had been Miss Swift we were there to kill it would have been a different matter. The truth is Bin Laden could be anywhere but if he goes on Jimmy Kimmel we'll get him."
