Osama Bin Laden DEAD-

Small victory, but one none the less, still going to be an endless war against terrorism though, but a step forward at least!

I'm glad that old bastard got shot in the face. I think us taking him out face to face was much better than a drone hitting him with a hellfire. I hope he was sh!tting his pants as our boys kicked his door in.

Just glad he's gone. It's no over, but this is huge for America. Like everyone has already said, we just can't let our guard down.

I am not a person who believes in conspiracy's by any means, but some of the details like "buried at sea" seem a bit odd so to speak. Also, to me the timing seems a bit... convenient, for Obama. He is taking credit for this and i'm not so sure he deserves it. It wouldn't be the first time the government has lied about something. Now with all that said, if he really is dead that is great as it provides some closure for America and goes to show the USA will not back down.

^It is not like they could parade him around the streets. Anything like that or discgrazing islamic death procedures would basically ignite the world. Al Queda would destroy pakistan if anything went wrong.

^ Thank you for your service to the country.  I'm sure many Americans feel the same.

finally!  ... but I'm waiting for photos too!

orly, my bad l thought they bought him back. so my coworkers said...

You just answered your own question. If you were wondering they did it in the Arabian Sea.

Nyle, go fuck* yourself. Why don't you actually provide your opinion for once and or refute my slight thought with some sort of logic.

Politicians and governments bend the truths all the damn time. Politicians skew and fabricate things all the time to spin things in their favor, it's a fact. I'm sorry, but i'm not fully buying the "we killed bin Laden and dumped his body at sea" story. IMO, if bin Laden was killed he would be brought back to the states asap.
Remember when Obama was "against the war" prior to being elected and he gained support from citizens. He then "Officially" ended the war, but left thousands upon thousands of troops over there, but still gained support from citizens. Now he wants to take credit for Osama's death and rally America in hopes of support for his re-election next year.

Nobody said this was the end of Al Quaeda, or terrorism in general.  "Killing innocents" is a tactic, a concept, not a physical foe that can be defeated so long as political differences exist in this world.  Bin Laden getting whacked is a good thing and anyone who tries to spin this is an a-hole.  For years, this was the effing holy grail to conservatives and Republicans, but because it actually happened under a Democratic president, the accomplishment is getting minimized.

As far as retaliation is concerned: if Al Quaeda was motivated to attack something, they would do it regardless if Bin Laden was alive or dead.  "Lol don't kill Hitler, you'll piss off the Nazis" doesn't make a lot of sense, and neither does this.

Also lolling at the conspiracy theorists.  Some people are just prone to believe conspiracy, and no amount of proof is sufficient to satisfy them, long form or otherwise.  That's not to say that you should take everything the gubmint says at face value, but maybe reaching for fanciful explanations when simple ones exist isn't the best approach.

Where else should they have rushed? Those people were in dc, many were tourists. They couldn't go to the pentagon since it's not in a tourist friendly area. Seems like a logical choice to me.

I think the utmost respect and credit should go to the special forces detachments on this mission. They were the ones with boots on the ground and actually getting the job done. A big thank you goes out to all those guys under the umbrella of JSOC and what they have accomplished.

and they tested dna from his others killed using their brain tissues to connect them

What do you mean he had nothing to do with it?

Agreed.  Except for instructing Leon Panetta to make this the CIA's top priority, fostering stronger ties with Pakistan to make a ground operation like this possible, and quickly making the decision to execute the operation based on the uncertain information at the time, he didn't have anything to do with it.

Now high gas prices, that he's directly responsible for. 

I heard Obama warned a lot of the countries about Bin Ladens death.

They are claiming a 100% DNA match for OBL...though pics of a dead OBL would be nice!

go Panetta!  When you need something done right, have a Santa Clara University grad take care of it!

You have no idea what that means. the statement 'politicians bend truths all the time' bears what amount of weight on this particular circumstance? Obama being against the war pre-election has nothing to do with the price of tea in china. People who study logic, refer to that as ignoratio elenchi, or in terms you can actually understand, an irrelevant conclusion. Never mind the body's been confirmed at the scene by one of his wives, never mind that his face was determined a match by CIA facial recognition software, never mind that if this story was false, all OBL would have to do is release a dated tape, never mind that his DNA was confirmed as a positive match.. politicians spin stuff all the time, therefore we can logically deduce that this story is false. Moron.

1st: I never said i didn't believe the story, but i said i was a bit skeptic after reading the initial story last night. I did not know about all the confirmations of identity that have come thru in the last 12 hours or so. Where my skepticism came in was the initial story that it was essentially "we killed him, DNA tested, and buried his body at sea". Just seemed all bit strange to me.

2nd: You can still go fuck* yourself.

yeah its great we got him...but openly, publicly freaking out just makes us look even more ignorant to the rest of the world...now the terrorists are gonna be even more pissed off and the amount of suicide bombings are gonna jump

When I heard it on the radio this morning I thought it was a joke.

IMO, I don't think its gonna make a difference now that he's dead. He's inspired millions to try and outdo his terrorist ways. And I feel a bullet to the head, he got away with much less than what he deserved.

This is literally everywhere. Theres a lot of concern that there may be a threat towards us
