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. | ||

Whether that is true or not I doubt any of us will know but, regardless, this is a big day for America. This is what we set out to do 10 years ago and we finally managed to catch up to him. But Bin Laden is the a very crucial figurehead, as he went through the era of the USSR invasion. | ||

I just want to say that I don't see a reason for beeing that happy about it, revenge alone won't ever help anyone. It's a step forward. It's progress, It's killing the enemy morale, It's raising the US morale. It's Justice served. It doesn't matter how many replacement Osama has, As long as they rise to oppose the world, If they keep coming, we'll never stop killing. US Fighting! | ||

Had he been captured alive, that would've been justice. Now he's been brutalized by "the west" and whether people like it or not, alot of people will not take kindly to that. | ||

I can't even describe it for them, but I feel like if I had to pick one word, it would be closure. + For many people, he represented the worst day of their lives. He was the cause of friends' and families' deaths. It must feel like a weight being lifted off the country. | ||

This means there is either a crackshot on the special forces team (HEADSHOT!) or they executed him after the fact. Either way it's awesome. | ||
