Bin Laden Sighting

Blogs for Bush reports that Indian security forces have been put on alert after a Bin Laden sighting near the Pakistan border in the Laddakh region. October surprise? Maybe, but this would seem to be a nearly perfect hiding place for Bin Laden, as any military actions by either the Indians or the Pakistanis would heighten the tensions of the other, risking a significant international crisis between these two nuclear armed enemies. Any activities by security forces of either nation would thus likely be very delicate, increasing the likelihood of Bin Laden slipping away.
