Ok, I have what is probably a real dumb question, but I have to ask it. Why can't we (USA) send about 10,000 of our troops overseas and just dig out (in a peaceful manner) Bin Laden, and bring his ass home? I mean, if Afghanistan had it in their minds that we had our resources pointed right at them, and all we wanted was to locate and recover this man, would anyone put up a fight?

I have been reading a lot, and there is much that I do not understand. But this is a depressed country overall is it not? Wouldn't 10,000 heavily armed soldiers (not looking for a fight mind you) be enough to just grab this guy and bring him back? Is the rest of the world going to have a problem with this? It seems to me this Bin Laden is basically against the rest of the world.

Then again, would someone like Bin Laden actually lash out against us on their own accord? Or is he paid to do it? I guess I just don't understand this stuff. What is so damn hard about going in to a depressed country and removing tyrants and terrorists?

Somebody please try and enlighten me..and keep in mind I am apparantly not the brightest bulb on the tree.

P.S. I am not insinuating that Bin Laden is the guilty party for Tuesday's events, but he is in fact a known terrorist, he is a problem, and he should just be handled.
