Osama Bin Laden’s favorite show is the A Team

Remember the A Team back in the 80’s? They were a bunch of highly trained soldiers convicted of a crime they didn’t commit and on the run from the US Army. But they didn’t exactly keep a low profile did they. For a start they were hardly trying to blend in. Driving round in a big black van was bad enough but why Hannibal let B.A Baracas wear a Mohawk and three tons of gold round his neck I’ll never know. That aint gonna attract suspicion. And despite the fact that the full resources of the US army were dedicated to hunting them down, the A Team still found time to help out people in downtown LA every week. Sure the army couldn’t find them, but if a solo mother of one in a poor neighborhood was trying to run the burger joint her life savings had been put into, but was being forced to pay extortion money by the local bikie gang who were working for the local fat cat whose ulterior motive was to force the lady to sell the burger joint to him before the big motorway company bought the land at an inflated price, then she could find the A Team no problem. An episode of the A Team was only on for 1 hour a week and she had to find them in the first 5 minutes so there was enough time for them to help her. And every week people like her found the A Team. When you consider that it puts the hunt for Bin Laden in perspective. Watching re runs of the A Team from his remote cave somewhere on the rugged and inhospitable Afghan/Pakistan border, he must be feeling pretty confident that he’ll never be found.
