The Official Nonsense Thread

Yum!

Haud the bus on that guy looking for $25 million for finding Bin Laden, according to his local rag, he's got "previous".

"Lee, an international gem merchant who frequently traveled in the Middle East... Lee, who claims to have provided the U.S. government with intelligence information on previous occasions, said the lack of action surprised him."

“For 20 years I was used to the government acting immediately on my intelligence,” he said."

Why doesn't he simply tattoo KILL ME on his forehead? He's going to get blamed for every US operation out in the Middle East over the last two decades that's left anyone remotely cross (including a little business in Somalia). Sounds like this guy is exaggerating to the Nth, but it might cost him his life in the process.

Any jihadist only has to kill him & claim "we've got the guy that killed Bin Laden!" to be made heroes back in their home turf. Everyone will believe them, after all, it is all over the American newspapers he's the guy suing the US government over it.

There's also an interesting post in the comments section:-
"I knew Tom Lee many years ago and apparently he hasn't changed. Jim Harger should be ashamed for offering him a soapbox. Mlive should consider changing its name to Weekly World News."
