This is untrue, as bin Laden does not currently hold citizenship in any
nation. He was stripped of his Saudi Arabian citizenship, and has moved
from place to place illegally since then. (This info came from
Discovery.com) And the government of Afghanistan (i.e. the Taliban) is only
in power due to fearful (terrorist) tactics and most people there do not
recognize them as the rightful government.

Can you claim He hasn't?

As far as seeing proof --> can you see your brain? Can you prove it exists?
This is not meant as a flame, but simply to show you things exist that we
cannot prove. Do you really believe the US gov't would provide all facts to
the common citizen? Things happen everday that we know nothing about.
