OSSAMA BIN LADEN DEAD

[stormsa]

news just coming in. wow, did this come out of the blue. good news but we have to be real cautious too. it could stir up all kinds of other madness.

[Ghost_Tracker]

You forgot to mention the part about "burning in hell."   

Gonna have, ohhhhh, so much more to say about this tomorrow.

Good riddence to Osama... I only pray that the chaos and evil died with him....wishful thinking I know.

Glad Bin Laden is dead.     I'm sure the devil left video instruction on feeding his followers on a plan to strike back when this day came.   Our country is going to have to be even more alert than ever .

I just don't understand why obl was dumped at sea so quickly.   I've seen his gruesome dead face on FB but I'd feel better if we had more confirmation than just a picture and "the news" he is dead.......

[stormsa]

yea the sea drop is very odd. he should be hung out for all his followers to see in shame. paraded around. very odd. a picture of course won't be enough. they won't believe it and spin it out of control. and the sea has suffered enough  this past year and decade. to hell with him!!!!

some food for thought

This was a well executed surgical strike.  Bin Laden was shot twice in the left head at close range.  He was ordered to surrender, but he responed with gun fire.  What's amazing is he lasted ten years living in luxury.  This is a big boost for the Democrats and the Bushies look like fools for not getting him sooner.  I have had GOP "friends" say thay wish it hadn't happen until after the 2012 election....now it's a plus for the Dems.  Ugly politics.

Great to hear! This is the best news I've heard in ages! This is a very special day for Americans.
It should be declared an international holiday to let the whole world know that terrorists will not be tolerated.

R.I.H. (rot in hell) Osama

Not to take away from the great job many people did in finding him,
the huge effort that it took, or from the Navy Seals who got him.  But -

In my opinion, it's time to start asking some tough questions, and I think
that would be a good thing for them to do.  What's the actual truth
here?  i.m.o. the truth is that speaking of "massive efforts," they
supposedly had people pouring ALL over the satellite photos of northwestern
Pakistan for years.  It was an extremely unusual, fortified structure in the
middle of nowhere, not that far from either Afghanistan or Islamabad.
SOMEBODY should have picked this out LONG ago; and i.m.o. the truth is
that somebody dropped the ball and something went wrong organizationally.
And they have computer software that should have been looking for unusual
features such as this - it's all digital and they certainly have the capability.
This is the United States, we should have had this bozo years ago.

But - One thing that I think is VERY positive - This could have been done with a 2,000-pound bomb or Tomahawk missile.  Instead, they chose to take the risk so that they could spare "innocent" civilians (his wife that attacked one of the Seals, for instance...) and Obama put himself at tremendous political risk.  How many other countries would have taken that chance?

yea, i thought maybe this was what we were waiting for. a big victory for obama to result in re-election. but the public has a short and selective memory. the day after this happened my conservative jerk cousin was watching glenn beck who he idolizes. glenn was going on about it and my cousin for the first time was displeased with his idol and changed the channel. i thought yes, history being made! but then he had obama on talking and he yelled O SURE TAKE CREDIT FOR IT!
obama should get credit for it. his predecessor should take all the credit he's got coming to him for putting us in the position we are in now. what did he do when he heard about the attacks on 9/11? ignoramus! that obama knew about this for months. was there every step of the way. well that's a president i feel totally safe with! thank you!

[TruckerMike]

Stormsa, I give the President the credit he deserves, Barry took a huge risk and went against EVERYTHING he has stood for in ordering the strike against OBL. This he does deserve all my praise for and for anyone who knows me, that should speak volumes. As for former President Bush, he also did what he had to. 9/11 would not have happened had President Clinton acted on the knowledge he had. If Bush act3ed on things faster then he did, again 9/11 would not have happened. I have been a member here for a very long time, I have argued politics with everyone knowing I am not in the "popular" crowd. I always show my respect to every sitting and former President. This is done whether I agree with them or not. Its a shame to me, matter of fact, its a embarrassment to me, as a former US Army Airborne Ranger, that all I have gave, the sacrifices my friends, comrades, and fellow soldiers sailor and Marines have done in the name of America, that those here at home, could have such disrespect for ANY President. But then, I was willing to give all that everyone could exercise their right, to spout off such hatred and say its acceptable. These past few day for me has been in contact with friends families who lost husbands, fathers, sons in attempts for 10 years to find this BASTARD. After seeing these posts, I quit. WHAT A WASTE

Storms, what did the Secret Service Detail which was assigned to protect the President of the United States of America do, when the United States was massively attacked and they were simultaneously told that there was a possible plot to assassinate him and also a possible plot to find and shoot down Air Force One?

[Ghost_Tracker]

Trying to decide exactly how annoyed I feel at the moment with
Obama, for deciding today not to release the photo of bin Laden.
Would doing that be offensive to Muslems or something??

^^^How offensive was the taping of the beheading of Daniel Pearl , Nick Berg & others at the hands of Al Qeda?

I did not watch those.   Nor ever want to.  However, people should NEVER FORGET THE SICK EVIL MENTALITY OF THESE TERRORIST!

The F k    with offendeing Muslums.        Don't like it?   LEAVE!       TRUE AMERICANS of ANY FAITH are offended by scumbag terrorist.
