I keep hearing he's been dead for a week and others killed yesterday, which is it?

There is no Team 6.
But if there were, they'd never have to buy another beer in Virginia.

I could "guess" that he had been dead for months :hmmm:

A neighbor of the compound tweeted about the noise from the raid. There is video that night of a fire at the compound from paki TV.

He was killed very early Sunday morning. Not a week ago.

Apparently, Bin Laden had a 25 million dollar price tag on his head.

What kind of ridiculous, designer turban was he wearing?!

Yesterday. This guy inadvertently live tweeted the whole thing:

Kind of fitting that the U.S.N. SEALs got the highest honor of dispatching of Osama bin Laden. I'm sure the friends and families of the sailors killed on board the U.S.S. Cole (DDG-67) are happy. :yeah:

The op was in place to kill him from what I have read. Glad they decided to do that instead of a trial (also glad US troops were not placed at even greater risk by asking them to grab him up instead of a pure assault (and great that none of our guys was killed. WTFG.). Still, it makes the whining about trials for detainees pretty absurd when summary execution is on the plate for others.

Tough call though since some intel for this op came from detainee interrogations, so I guess taking prisoners is a good thing.

I've read a week, DNA testing and confirmation, and already buried at sea.

Gotta be a record if this only happened Sunday morning. We got Osamas son in the raid as well.

To be clear, the operation's intent was never to capture him. The operation's focus has always been on killing him.

It sure saves all the hassle of trying him in a military or civilian court.

What would the US gain to fake the death, if it would be so easy to disprove?
If the death was only staged, then Osama will surely send a new message to his followers... Or, my guess, many freeloaders will announce: "I'm Osama, and my wife is, too" :D


This was expectable...:nope:
To be balanced, the Palestinian Authorities of the West Bank approved the killing:

Pretty funny guy:
:D
the last victim of him....;)

They buried him within 24 hours to prevent muslims being butt-hurt.

They should have waited over 24 hours on purpose. AQ should know that they'll never get a proper burial, not that we'll bend over backwards to comply with islamic law. That part was a travesty, IMO. They didn't deserve proper burial (no one in that compound is innocent).

A fitting track dedicated to the late OBL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xw-m4jEY-Ns

Strange thing is, if I recall correctly, Islam doesn't look too highly on burial at sea or cremation. Islamic law prefers burial on land from what I've heard.

Yeah. Apparently it's OK< but only if the person dies at sea and cannot be buried on land. So I'm glad it offends them. Hopefully the offense becomes widespread among terrorist sympathizers.
