"Get Obama bin Laden before I leave office, orders George W. Bush" from the Times of London reports that British Special Forces along with US counterparts have ramped up their efforts to capture Osama bin Laden - and with that will give President Bush the claim that he nabbed both Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein - two of the globe's more notorious evil doers.
The Special Boat Service (SBS) and the Special Reconnaissance Regiment have been taking part in the US-led operations to capture Bin Laden in the wild frontier region of northern Pakistan. It is the first time they have operated across the Afghan border on a regular basis.
The hunt was “completely sanctioned” by the Pakistani government, according to a UK special forces source. It involves the use of Predator and Reaper unmanned aerial vehicles fitted with Hellfire missiles that can be used to take out specific terrorist targets.
