Of course the REAL reason why DSM is SO important is that all Americans must be made to understand that Bushco lied to get America to support starting another war while the most important war was cut short. We've never served justice on the man responsible for the lives lost on 9/11.
The result of the Bushco lies as portrayed in the DSM is that our country was intentionally steered from completing the REAL task of wiping out the Taliban and killing or capturing bin Laden.
Today, the AP reports that he's alive and well.
It is all so depressing and insulting...

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - Osama bin Laden is alive and in good health, as is fugitive Taliban chief Mullah Mohammed Omar, a purported senior commander of the ousted Afghan religious militia said in a TV interview broadcast Wednesday.
Pakistan's Geo television broadcast the interview with a man it identified as Taliban military commander Mullah Akhtar Usmani, a former Afghan aviation minister who said he still receives instructions from Omar.
Asked whether bin Laden is hiding in areas of Afghanistan that are under Taliban control, the man said he would not specify where the terrorist mastermind was hiding.
"Thanks be to God, he is absolutely fine," the man said.
So while our guys get sniped at/blown up in Iraq...
The man said the Taliban are still organized and senior Taliban leaders hold regular consultations.
"Our discipline is strong. We have regular meetings. We make programs," the man said.
He said Omar does not attend the meetings but "decisions come from his side." He did not say where those meetings take place.
The article closes with...
A U.S.-led coalition ousted the Taliban in late 2001. The offensive was launched after the Taliban refused to hand over bin Laden and dismantle al-Qaida bases in Afghanistan after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the United States.
So IMO, the theme for DSM needs to always tie it back to UBL still being alive. This is another way to stir the outrage of the country and get us back to tackling the REAL war on terror.
