The pilots and the airlines have all said that if a terrorist stands up to take control of the plane, everyone should throw laptops, shoes, purses, etc at his head.
Damn, what if I need to get up to go to the bathroom?

The best solution I've heard for Bin Laden...

Killing him will only create a martyr.

Holding him prisoner will inspire his comrades to take hostages to demand his release.

Therefore, we should do neither. Let the Special Forces, SEALS or whomever covertly capture him, fly him to an undisclosed hospital and have surgeons quickly perform a complete sex change operation.

Then we return bin Laden to Afghanistan to live as a woman under the Taliban.

Wouldn't that be a way to be sure he really got screwed?! <?b>
