Bin Laden is dead, official

Armistead · 05-01-11, 09:56 PM

My wife just said Osama Ladin was dead, but didn't know how...

If so, let the debate begin...She just said it looks like we got him...Oh well, should be interesting. I'll look for it in the news tomorrow or better yet come here so I can get facts.

According CNN, Fox, CBC, etc.... OSB is deqd and his body is in the hand of the US.

In my opinion, nothing is going to change, except their is an another martyr.

I agree fully with you on this even if he is dead it changes little the ideology is not going to go away.Hitler has been dead for some time but his ides are still very much alive.

Hitler's being dead didn't kill anti-Semitic stupidity which had been around for centuries but did a lot to dampen it. 10 years late, but praise be to Allah anyway.

I am referring to neonazi type groups.And in any case killing one person rarely gets rid of a problem when it is on the global scale.

Dont get me wrong this is good news indeed but there is still much to be done and we dont yet know what effect Bin Laden having been killing is going to have on his followers it may only in courage them.

I have a very close friend who is an officer in military intelligence and is deployed in this region normally he is able to send me an e-mail every few weeks for the last month or so I have heard nothing from him which has made me wonder if something major was up operations wise.

I really hope they release photos of his dead body........We deserve it.

Al Jazeera has a guy on who actually met him before. Very Interesting conversation.

News said he was killed a week ago, just had to do DNA to prove it before it was released...

No, doubt it will change everything, may even get worse for awhile. Been much better to have captured him and let him rot in jail.

He was in a comfy mansion in Islamabad? So much for the spartan warrior ascetic that has been projected on him rightly or wrongly all these years.

But its the symbol to the people that counts. Because of him so much hurt and pain was caused, and its relieving to see that all brought back on him. Same with Hitler, I'm sure when Hitler died many people around the globe rejoiced that a tyrant was dead.

Well,the CIA och "dragons"have received a boost

Jimbuna · 05-02-11, 05:58 AM

Great news indeed....now we await the potential backlash but we've been there for nearly six years as it is.

Well done Navy Seal Team Six and a wise move burying the trash at sea...no shrine to look at now.
