Keep it civil guys.
Alright I am sick of warning people: Trolling, flame baiting, and derailing will result in insta bans. The same goes for conspiracy theorists and stupidity generally.
Confirmation was as follows - On-site DNA test which came back as 99% positive. - photos of face sent to CIA and confirmed with photo analysis - confirmed by 20 year old wife who live in pakistan.
This thread is specifically dedicated to the details surrounding the raid/his death. |

It even says Usama in the picture gallery and in the article. His name isn't English, so there is no "correct" way to spell it in English. Osama/Usama are just phonetic pronunciations.
But everyone else on the Fox News site (in past articles) they spell it Osama. I searched. It just seems kinda odd to me. O.o

Hopefully the news updates soon, getting bored here .

i would say this is the worse case scenario. bin laden is someone who is predictable. and you think terrorist gonna disband because of him? no. someone new gonna come up and you have to adapt again.

Fuck yeah. Republicans will have a harder time saying Obama is weak on stopping terrorism.

I respect that, but name 3 wars that WE started thats had tons of collateral damage to civilians.
Iraq?
Iraq had no ties to 9/11, at all. This was kind of confirmed a long, long time ago. What was it, close to a million deaths so far on their side, or is that Iraq/Afghanistan combined?
You could argue Vietnam considering we had no place to be there
etc.

I think it's great that Obama is taking credit for all of this, he deserves it. Isn't there a way to less blatantly take credit though?
This just won him his second term. He's going to take credit as clearly as possible in order to capitalize on it in 2012.

I can only name two, but both of them came in this past decade.

Expect this next month to involve some massive lashback from Al Qaeda. I suspect bases and embassys around the world are going on high alert.

I don't believe anyone has said anything about terrorism being over due to Osama's death.
From this thread (just 2 examples there are probably more): "Time to pack it up in the Middle East, War on Terror over and won." "YAY WAR ON TERREOR IS OVER"
Sorry - but there have been people saying exactly those things no need to be confused

He is commander in chief of all US military forces... Ultimately the decision is in his hands.....

this thread is bringing out the crazies in full force.

It's great that one of the goals of the war has been finally accomplished, but there will always be another Osama out there. I guess we can celebrate here for a little while...

Eh yeah I though it was a little blunt. But other than that a good speech.

This thread is slowly dumbing down humanity as we speak. Have some dignity, terrorists force civilians to work with them, its an obvious tactical move. Civilian casualties are a horrible byproduct of an enemy who hides amongst them. War is hell and the enemy are cowards.
