It seems that that the report in the French news paper indicating typhoid may have killed OBL, was not substantiated. In order to fulfill the role of the mahdi (divinely guided one) of Islamic eschatologic prophecy, he must escape death. OBL is not dead, yet.
I think that Osama is in Qom, Iran, the same place as Iran's Supreme's Leader Sayyid Ali Khamenei. Remember Osama wants to bridge the gap between Sunni and Shia. The US has some control over the Musharraf government in Pakistan but not over Iran. That makes Iran the safest place for Osama. Qom and Mashad have important Muslim shrines so they are the safest cities in Iran for Osama. The Wali al Asr was hidden at Masjid Jamkaran in Qom. It would be the perfect place for Osama.
Even if the US or its allies take military action against the underground nuclear research facility at Natanz, the heavy water nuclear facility at Arak and the nuclear power plant at Bushehr, there will be no attack against the holy shrines in Qom and Mashad.

It doesnt really make a difference whether he is dead or not and I really do not care. The only way terrorisim can end is when the USA acts neutrally and independently to resolve the middle east crisis without being on the side of Isreal regardless of who is right or wrong. I am really amazed how the US officials and people do not relaize this very simple equation. End occupation of palistine and Iraq then there would be no problem and the terorist would not have and excuse nor support from the weak.

It was just media speculation from the side of France.
According to muslim shariat if any leader passes away it would be annouced without any delays(The Times).
It can be politically motivated as well, just to let Bin Laden to show up again(to prove his existence).
Good Luck

I think that it is bunk. Just a ploy of Bin Laden's to get people to stop looking for him.

No. It was a lie from the French.
