Two passengers who claimed to know a lot about USA forces and Osama Bin Laden were thrown out of a taxi and left to wrestle to determine whose forces were strong.
Trouble started on a Friday taxi destined from Mbale to Tororo, when one passenger seated on the back seat started discussing loudly about how Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban will destroy USA within a week.
He added saying that USA is a very weak country and that is why it failed to captured Saddam Hussein as it had promised in the 1990 Gulf War. He said Osama will not be captured as USA promises.
This prompted a pro USA passenger to lash out at his friend, rubbishing all he was talking about.
He said USA is a super power country that can destroy any of it's enemies within a planned time.
One passenger seated near the door requested the driver to stop the taxi and advised the two friends to discuss their differences outside. The two competing forces later wrestled to determine which side was superior than the other as the taxi sped off-leaving them behind.
