Dead? ...or Alive?

Pakistan's president said Monday his intelligence agencies believe Osama bin Laden may be dead, but he added there is no proof.
Other Pakistani officials and a U.S. counter terrorism official said they thought the al-Qaida chief is alive. U.S. officials said bin Laden is most likely hiding in the mountains along Pakistan's border with Afghanistan, in particular the lawless tribal regions.
"We continue to believe that bin Laden is alive," said the U.S. official, who declined to be named because he was not authorized to discuss the matter on the record.
Reports of bin Laden's death or of near-captures have punctuated his years on the run since the September 11, 2001 attack on the U.S., only to be seemingly debunked by periodic audio and video recordings.
