I would be celebrating in the streets except that I no longer believe he was the mastermind - if indeed he had any part - in the 9/11 attack. People can lie but physics can't.
Anyways, I wonder WHICH Osama we killed. Some people may remember that a couple months after 9/11 a tape was found -very luckily I might add :wink: - in Afghanistan with "Osama" in it where he confesses to the whole 9/11 thing and was touted by Bush as definitive proof that Osama was guilty and "had no soul". Yet no one in the media pointed out that the man had only a vague resemblance to the real Osama.

Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden dead
Al-Qaeda founder and leader Osama Bin Laden has been killed by US forces in Pakistan, President Obama has said.
The al-Qaeda leader was killed in a ground operation outside Islamabad based on US intelligence, the first lead for which emerged last August.
Mr Obama said after "a firefight", US forces took possession of his body.
Bin Laden was accused of being behind a number of atrocities, including the attacks on New York and Washington on 11 September 2001.
He was top of the US "most wanted" list.
Mr Obama said it was "the most significant achievement to date in our nation's effort to defeat al-Qaeda".
The US has put its embassies around the world on alert, warning Americans of the possibility of al-Qaeda reprisal attacks for Bin Laden's killing.
Crowds gathered outside the White House in Washington DC, chanting "USA, USA" after the news emerged.
Bin Laden approved the 9/11 attacks in which nearly 3,000 people died, saying later that the results had exceeded his expectations.
He evaded the forces of the US and its allies for almost a decade, despite a $25m bounty on his head.
His death will be seen as a major blow to al-Qaeda but also raise fears of reprisal attacks, correspondents say.
Mr Obama said he had been briefed last August on a possible lead to Bin Laden's whereabouts.
"It was far from certain, and it took many months to run this thread to ground," Mr Obama said.
Osama Bin Laden approved the 9/11 attacks "I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located Bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan.
"And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action, and authorised an operation to get Osama Bin Laden and bring him to justice," the president said.
On Sunday a small team of US forces undertook the operation in Abbottabad, north of Islamabad.
After a "firefight" Bin Laden was killed and his body taken by US forces, the president said.
Former US President Bill Clinton said in a statement: "This is a profoundly important moment not just for the families of those who lost their lives on 9/11 and in al-Qaeda's other attacks but for people all over the world who want to build a common future of peace, freedom, and cooperation for our children."
Mr Clinton's successor, President George W Bush, described the news as a "momentous achievement".
"The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done," Mr Bush said in a statement.
BBC Security correspondent Frank Gardner says that to many in the West, Bin Laden became the embodiment of global terrorism, but to others he was a hero, a devout Muslim who fought two world superpowers in the name of jihad.
The son of a wealthy Saudi construction family, Bin Laden grew up in a privileged world. But soon after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan he joined the Mujahideen there and fought alongside them with his Arab followers, a group that later formed the nucleus for al-Qaeda.
After declaring war on America in 1998, Bin Laden is widely believed to have been behind the bombings of US embassies in East Africa, a billion-dollar US warship, and the attacks on New York and Washington.

It took nearly 10 years but better late than never. May Bin Laden's soul rot in hell along with every other cowardly fanatic who hides behind religion in order to commit terrorist atrocities.
I'm glad Obama made the point that Bin Laden was NOT a true muslim - just an over-privileged, deluded zealot who used Islam to justify the mass murder of innocent people, including muslims. Pleased to hear they killed his murderous offspring as well.

Seriously, do you really think there would be all this commotion if the real Bin Laden had not been killed? It is quite easy to identify dead bodies these days. If this were just a ruse, don't you think Al Quaeda would be capitalising on this and mocking the USA? Get a grip.

Dont get me wrong im glad he is dead as are a lot of muslims but the scenes in america being shown on the news are showing them up as idiots, hypocrites and frankly stupid.
They are treating it like they just won a basketball game they are sickening scenes.
It is good news that needs to be treated with some common sense.

George Bush and co. let him go, and this moron was living it up in a ****ing mansion! There won't be a boogeyman to use anymore either.

This dailymail reader comment made me think
In assassinating Bin Laden - because that's what it was, America can no longer claim the moral high ground. Surely if they can get into his compound they can bring him back to the US to stand trial and prove his guilt before a jury. It sickens me to see people cheering and dancing in the street at the murder of a man, even if he's a terrorist. We pour scorn and hatred on Muslims when they celebrate the murder of Americans and Brits, yet now we dance at the murder of a Muslim. Sadly they have won, they have have reduced us back to their level.
This dailymail reader comment made me think
He did apparently get given the chance to surrender but declined

And yes i think people celebrating someones death is disgusting. He may have been a terrorist but he is still a person. People associate him as the 'boss' or 'leader' of terrorism, people act like their will be no more now when in actual fact nothing much has changed. We don't know that he has actually done anything for a long time.

Yeah no i still think he is evil its just people act as if terrorism will stop now but it wont. There have been several terrorist attacks since 9/11 that haven't been proved to be related to him in anyway. The only thing i was commenting on is the fact people think its over when its not changed.

This is quite interesting, its how they found him:
Kat Hannaford — In this age of GPS signals, Foursquare check-ins, and iPhone tracking, how did America's most-wanted man, Osama Bin Laden, stay hidden for almost a decade? A better question would ask how he was found, for that is the reason the world is rejoicing today.
Despite hiding in plain sight of a police station and military headquarters in Abbottabad, Pakistan, Bin Laden's million-dollar mansion—eight times larger than the mansions surrounding it—was stormed in a raid last night. US officials had tracked one of Bin Laden's trusted right-hand men, a courier, after he was identified by detainees captured after 9/11, and discovered he lived with his brother in an "extraordinarily unique compound," which "harboured a high-value terrorist target," according to various senior administration officials.
It was the fact that this mysteriously large mansion lacked a phone line or internet connection that ultimately made officials believe something was amiss. With all the riches in the world, could they not afford a connection? Other details soon began causing suspicion too—trash was burned instead of put out for collectors, like their neighbors did. What was this three-story mansion hiding?
Whatever it was hiding, they were hiding it well: security measures included mammoth walls up to 5.5m in height, laced with barbed wire, along with internal walls that gave the compound a maze-like quality. There were few windows according to officials, which no doubt masked the third family living with the courier and his brother—Osama Bin Laden, and his youngest wife.
After the US military entered the compound in a 40-minute long raid, five adults were killed in the firefight: Osama; his son; the courier and his brother, and a woman who may or may not be Bin Laden's wife. Details are still trickling out now about the raid, and how Bin Laden was discovered, but one thing's certain: this sadly won't be the last time terrorism rears its ugly head. [The Guardian and JPost and Boing Boing and ABC]
http://gizmodo.com/#!5797588/how-osama-bin-laden-was-found
Hmmm. Oh and that picture of his corpse is photoshopped. Gizmodo (the site with that^ story) explained it all.
Yeah no i still think he is evil its just people act as if terrorism will stop now but it wont. There have been several terrorist attacks since 9/11 that haven't been proved to be related to him in anyway. The only thing i was commenting on is the fact people think its over when its not changed.
Im certainly not condoning his actions what so ever. Its just osama isnt terrorism he was just a terrorist.
Noone is really saying that this is the end of terrorism, it is a big victory over Al Qaeda though, even if it is only symbolic. I dont really blame people for celebrating, even though I wouldnt do it myself, he's the biggest terrorist mastermind of the last few decades, he has the blood of thousands of his hands, mind you so does the American and British governments

People in America have the right to celebrate. He was responsible for 9/11, which killed over 3000 people. Lots of people lost wives, husbands, children etc. on that day and he was the mastermind behind it.

Why are americans celebrating on the streets when they were so disgusted about seeing people in the middle east doing the same thing in 2001? talk about hypocrisy!
Dont get me wrong im glad he is dead as are a lot of muslims but the scenes in america being shown on the news are showing them up as idiots, hypocrites and frankly stupid.
They are treating it like they just won a basketball game they are sickening scenes.
It is good news that needs to be treated with some common sense.
I generally agree what with the "USA!" chants... it's a little bit tasteless... but I don't think it's fair to compare the celebration of a death of the world's most notorious terrorist with the celebration of the deaths of 7,500 civilians in a terrorist attack.
They're going to ally with gadaffi. They will contact all muslims around europe and ww3 will begin
That is the most absurd pile of **** I have ever read. It's like you've hardly paid attention to current affairs over the past 10 years and rammed together the two morsels of "Middle East" and "Islam" for a piece of sloppy sensationalist speculation.

Not really. Nicki's album is very good, some of her records are gold. Kim is just a jealous cow that doesn't like the idea of another successful woman in pop. This isn't the first time she's picked a fight with another artist. The sad thing is Kim is really wasting her talent in this cat fight with Nicki - she could be using her time money and talent on creating a new record.
Here's an example of how warped Kim is: she's charging people $9.99 for Black Friday. R i d i c u l o u s. That and she has to put it on paypal because she can't get a major online music distributor to sell her music. She needs to step up her game and release something of her own, because she can't leech off Nicki's fame forever.

I wouldn't be too worried about a nuclear war or World War 3, Al Queda certainly hasn't got the resources for either. There will be retailiation attempts sure, but nobody saw 9/11 coming. This time everyone will expect it so chances are any big attempt will be thwarted.
It won't be over until the other leaders are dealt with, they'd have prepared for Bin Laden's death given the target on his back. It kind of reminds me of the Nazis, the high ups were always said to have been as bad as Hitler.

yes I know there are muslim rules regards quick burials but it seems odd that you can kill a man and then worry about his religious sensitivities! I think his supporters were already pissed about him being killed so holding back on the burial wouldnt have made much difference. All theyve done is leave the door open for a million conspiracy theories. Utterly stupid.
And people should remember that Osama has still not been proved to have been behind the 9/11 and 7/7 attacks. He's just a convenient figurehead to hate. Those terrorists are all still out there and now they will have revenge on their minds. Security will be stepped up and millions of people even more inconvenienced at airports etc.

Yeah, such a success.Bin Laden bragged about being behind the attacks on several occasions and the general concensus is that he was telling the truth.
The death is suspicious for sure but do people know that Bill Clinton openly admitted that he contracted the CIA to kill him. Bin Laden was never gonna stand trial.

I don't even see how throwing a body into the sea is even a buriel, it's just...disposing of the evidence imo :conf2:
Who cares, if he surrendered or was captured after a firefight he will be either on his way or already at Guantanemo Bay receiving the finest hospitality available including blanket baths etc in the hope he can help the American Intelligence Community with a few anecdotes about his friends in AQ's future plans.
Whether he was buried at sea in the Indian Ocean or will eventually be buried at sea in the Caribbean I dont think we will be seeing many more of his home movies on "You've Been Framed".
Took 25 men(highly trained SEALS) over 40 minutes to clear the building where he was located and neutralise 5 people, yeah right! Maybe took them 20 minutes and the rest was setting the scene for the supposed death of the leader.
American Special Forces team always operate with real time helmet cameras, yet we havent seen any footage taken from them. If they had killed him in action I think they would have shown at least some footage by now.

I beg to differ, there were four detainment camps at GB, only one was closed, Camp Xray. there is now a new camp Camp Justice, so in effect there are still 4 detainment facilities 3 for detainment and interrogation the fourth for detainment and trials.
As of February 2011, 172 detainees remain at Guantanamo.....
.....On Jan 7, 2011, President Obama signed the 2011 Defense Authorization Bill which contains provisions preventing the transfer of Guantanamo prisoners to the mainland or to other foreign countries, and thus effectively stops the closure of the detention facility. However he strongly objected to the clauses and stated that he would work with Congress to oppose the measures.[16] U.S. Secretary of Defense Gates said during a testimony before the US Senate Armed Services Committee on February 17, 2011: “The prospects for closing Guantanamo as best I can tell are very, very low given very broad opposition to doing that here in the Congress.
On March 7, 2011 President Obama has given the green light to resume military trials, conducted by military officers, with a military judge presiding, of terror suspects detained at Guantánamo Bay.[225] He also signed an executive order that moved to set into law the already existing practice on Guantánamo of holding detainees indefinitely without charge

Yet still no denials from Al Qaeda that Osama is still alive, if he is! Do you not think they would be delighting and revelling in the US's embarrassment if he had NOT been killed? The internet would be awash with jeering videos. More likely the story that his body has been disposed of has been disseminated to avoid any chance of fanatics trying to steal back his body to enshrine it somewhere for other maniacs to worship.
Osama is dead - a coward to the very end, cowering behind his own wife. What a guy.

Not that I'm trying to single you out but it seems you've swallowed your government/mainstream media/military industrial complex medicine without so much as a second thought. I wonder if you believe our governments are even capable of lying.
Let me say that whichever government storyteller came up with that wife bit, pure genius, that'll go over well with the war hungry masses. I also read in the Miami Herald that intellegence from Guantanamo Bay may have played a role in nailing the former CIA darling Tim Osman, now known as bin Laden. That's *******ing brilliant: Look kids, torture sometimes works.
The whole thing stinks and I believe he's dead but that's only because I believe he's been dead for years. I will be surprised if I see ONE reporter ask a real question like why in the world do you chuck this man's body into the ocean several hours after obtaining it when you have spent TEN *******ING YEARS trying to get it? The whole thing stinks and this is one issue that will separate the sheep from the people who don't assume everything they're told is true.

Not that I'm singling you out, but I'm astounded at the usual conspiracy theorists who crawl out of the woodwork at every opportunity to pontificate about different scenarios about every single political action.
Whether Osama was killed yesterday or years ago to me is pointless to speculate about and I really don't give a rat's behind - it is enough he is dead (of which I am sure), and I reiterate that if he were NOT he, along with his fellow maniacs, would be parading his cowardly self on every TV channel and on the internet to humiliate and jeer at the US and the rest of the West. What a fantastic opportunistic coup that would be for Al Qaeda don't you think?
Just because you deem yourself all knowing and superior in intellect to us mere mortals doesn't wash with me - after all I have had the misfortune, and often amusement, to read a lot of your posts and threads on here that display the extent of your naivety, ignorance and disingenuity, so I think I will trust my own instincts thank you very much, after having spent many more years on this earth than yourself and, as a Brit, having lived through the atrocities perpetrated by more terrorists with their different "causes" on my native soil than the Americans ever have.

Precisely, to think Osama would leave his 'club' with no plans, no new leader, no nothing. Of course he wouldn't. For all we know Osama could have had someone far more clever and evil working for him and now that person gets to take the lead.

I dont like that, seems he could easily have been captured alive and given a proper trial and sentence, but it seemed the Yanks were set on carrying out an assassination.
And now the result is that Bin Laden becomes a martyr, a legend, a true Jihadist which is exactly what he wanted, all of that would have seemed so less appealing had he been standing in a dock at the Hague undergoing a lengthy cross-examination. Plus it means the 9/11 conspiracies will never be put to bed once and for all. Capturing him would have been the right thing to do.

WHITE HOUSE TO RELEASE BIN LADEN DEATH PHOTO
Tue May 03 2011 10:22:50 ET
President Obama decided Tuesday morning to release at least one photo showing Osama Bin Laden's death, a top source claims.
The images, being described as 'graphic', are bound to stir emotions in the east and the west, and will likely become the most viewed photographs in modern history.
One image shows a bullet wound to his head above his left eye.
Will it remove all doubt about the death?
The exact timing on the release is being debated.

CIA chief Leon Panetta has suggested that photographs taken of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden after he was killed will eventually be made public.
However, the White House was more cautious about the likelihood it would release images of the terrorist leader taken after he was shot in the head during a raid on his home in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad by US Navy SEALS.
"It's fair to say that it's a gruesome photograph," White House spokesman Jay Carney, appearing to refer to an image of bin Laden taken shortly after bin Laden was killed him at the compound.
"I'll be candid. There are sensitivities here in terms of the appropriateness of releasing photographs of Osama bin Laden."
There are fears that releasing the images could be seen as distasteful by some and be exploited by al Qaeda and other extremist groups.
"What we don't want to do is to release anything that might be either misunderstood or that would cause other problems," White House counter-terrorism adviser John Brennan said on National Public Radio.
At least two sets of photographs of bin Laden after he was shot dead are believed to exist - one set taken after his body was transferred to a hanger in Afghanistan and the second on the USS Vinson before he was buried at sea.
Officials said that bin Laden's body was washed and he was accorded full Islamic rites before being slipped into the Arabian Sea.
