Glory Days
Know what this means, doncha?
The CIA has closed a unit that for a decade had the mission of hunting Usama bin Laden and his top lieutenants, The New York Times reported in its Tuesday edition.
.....
Intelligence officials said the realignment reflects a view that Al Qaeda is no longer as hierarchical as it once was, as well as a growing concern about Al Qaeda-inspired groups that have begun carrying out attacks independent of bin Laden and his top deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri.
First his latest tapes get released to a collective world-wide yawn, now he's not even worth hunting.
Like the Boss said, "well time slips away and leaves you with nothing mister but boring stories of glory days".
Osama's turned into the Rodney Dangerfield of terrorists.
