I'd really like to believe the bastard was dead.

So would I, but I doubt it's true too.

There are reports that if he's not dead than he's seriously ill.

I remember hearing about him having issues with his kidneys, but they again my mind could be playing tricks on me.

I hope he's wasting away in a cave somewhere.

He hasn't shown his face for a while. Either he's leaving it to Zawahiri, or something's up with him.

I've heard this before. A few years back, there were many rumors he was dead too. I'll believe it when I see his body.

But a few years back he had still made appearances. It's been a while since we've heard from him, which gives me pause.
I don't think we've killed him, sadly, but I think we can't rule the possibility out entirely.

It hasn't been that long since we've seen him. He usually dissapears for a little while, then pops up again.

I would prefer it if he would die in an air strike or something for which we could claim credit. However I've been thinking about this for a little while and if Bin Laden really were to die from a disease, it would probably damage the terrorists morale more than an air strike because if "Allah" won't even help him defeat a disease why would he help him defeat America? Just a thought.
Btw, RM I think you mean Zawahiri. We all know what happened to Zarqawi
