Not that he deserves any form of grief...but I am surprised that they aren't a bit more neutral...

Yeah, well, "neutral" may be a bit much to ask of the New York Daily News, don't you think? Only 10 years ago that rotten bastard killed 3,000 of its readers.

KSM was not "unknown." Nor are many of the "high value' detainees, at least no to the intel community.

Quote:

A photo released on Monday purporting to show Osama bin Laden’s body is now reported to be a fake.
The image was carried by a number of international news agencies and broadcast by news channels around the world. It is thought to have originally been distributed by Pakistani media.
It is said to have been created using an earlier picture of bin Laden and another showing the bloodied face of an unidentified man.
The enhanced photo was reported to have been taken shortly after the al Qaeda’s leader’s body was recovered by US special forces.
It has now been withdrawn from all major media.

Oh come on, I've never touched photoshopped in my entire life, and even I could tell that was a fake!

Possibly a 'dirty' bomb in a prominent city.

Then i'd televise it on national TV, with the bold headline, "This is what happens when you F _ _ _ with us."

(EDIT: Acutally, not that ive spent more time dwelling on it, id behead him, then toss his rotting carcass into a ditch front side down, piss on it, toss in a bunch of pig entrails, toss in some lime, non ceremoniously fill it in with a backhoe, then leave his head on a pike as the headstone, with a sign dangeling from his mouth that reads, "This is what happends when you F _ _ _ with the US". )

I do like the idea of Kill all they send until they stop sending. In the big picture, it won't end the Jihadist movement, but one very important thing it does prove, is you can't hide hide forever. We'll eventually get you. (and to that remark, i must admit, originally, i never thought wed get him. How happy i am to have been proved wrong)

You left out letting a gay homosexual necrophiliac have his way, chopping off his member so it doesn't go to allah with him

I would go with this line of thought as well. Given to what was done in the past....

But it was quickly posted by all the major news services as 'real'. Could just as easily been a birth certificate.

So true few months back I was waiting for my connection at the airport and got into a conversation with a few Army soldiers who where headed home on their R&R from Afghanistan(and they had on fairly faded BDUs) a few of the older soldiers had been stationed in the KMC(German region) in the same time period that I was and we where talking about the bars that we used to visit and about Kosovo which was going on at that time as well as Iraq and Afghanistan.

Some man who said he was from Peru clearly some sort of ultra liberal professor comes over and starts telling us how immoral we where for being a willing part of "The War on Terror" one of the soldiers kindly reminded this Peruvian that under the UCMJ one must follow all lawful orders and no such unlawful orders have ever been given.

The Peruvian professor then warns us that one day the "World Court" will try the US government and all of us accountable.Well he must have been a pretty good reader of body language because after looking at all our faces he got up and left very quickly.What a fool.

Does anybody honestly believe that if islamist terrorists had the capability to detonate a nuke in the West, they would be saving it for OBL's death?

I suppose some might see it as necessary to create a new boogie man but killing bin Laden, as satisfactory and righteous as it might have been will have zero impact on global terror. Any near-term nuking is unlikey to be related to the subject of today's headlines.

Terrorists; political, religious or just plain whacko have been out there for centuries and the only successful solutions have been to render them irrelevant. Kill enough of them (even using extra-legal means) and they might eventually decide the cost is not worth their goals and remove the social and economic support that sustains them.

Every successful terror attack has stemmed from a failure of intelligence but so far it seems that this success was due to solid intelligence, patiance and a selected and precise application of firepower. You cannot beat terrorism with Mk82 laser guided bombs but a 5.56mm steel-jacketed bullet to the brain administered at close range in the dead of night can work wonders.

That works until the next fanatical ideology comes along, then you must count your losses and repeat as required.
