To me this virtually guarantees that he had something to do with it.
CNBC is reporting that according to two Sr. US Intelligence officials the current most likely suspect is indeed Osama Bin Laden.
If I were the Taliban, I'd be preparing to offer him up. I think the reason they initially indicated that he had nothing to do with it is because they are afraid, as they should be, of a swift reprisal. If they can connect it to him, I would not want to be a resident of Afghanistan.
