Hidden Headlines: Osama is dead?

Blah blah blah … Osama is dead … blah blah blah. Wait, WTF?!

And, according to Iranians I trust, Osama bin Laden finally departed this world in mid-December. The al Qaeda leader died of kidney failure and was buried in Iran, where he had spent most of his time since the destruction of al Qaeda in Afghanistan. The Iranians who reported this note that this year’s message in conjunction with the Muslim Haj came from his number two, Ayman al-Zawahiri, for the first time.

This is according to National Review Online Editor Michael Ledeen. One would think news like this would hit the headlines, not be buried in the second paragraph of a commentary on revolution.
