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.

Way to only read the OP and do no research of your own jackass. He was killed during a firefight in a secret compound in Pakistan. Regardless of how you feel about America or Bin Laden, that comment was crass, disrespectful, and uncalled for.


No that's what they told you what happened. Ammerricuhhh fuck yeeeeeee

so you know this is a fact and you're not just making it up to troll? ok

Totally agree with this.

Wrong. The man who fired the shot will wake up tomorrow, and go back to training for his next mission. The man is a member of JSOF, he is not James Bond. His work is no different than the 5,000 or so others like him, and he is no better than any of them.


You should have phrased that better. Like "they're all fucking awesome" or "the man who fired the shot is a hero among many."


That is not the mentality. It's just not like that. It's not about being a hero. It's about training, training, and more training, and simply doing the job. Then doing it again. There is no thanks, no hooray, no anything really. No free drinks, to say the least.

Agreed 100%. Morale is a huge factor that can't be ignored.

Don't get trolled by him. He's clearly heartless and possesses no sense of empathy so just ignore him.

QFT. This is an actually success in a series of conflicts that have been notably devoid of such successes.

Do you have a link or a source or something we could look at?



Nothing right now. Relaying information being spread via the news. I'm sure it's probably written somewhere.

Some more info:

A few helicopters went in. Apparently a chopper crashed due to a mechanical failure and the US completely destroyed it so nobody could get anything from it (normal). No US injuries.

Operation lasted 40 minutes. Brother of Osama killed. Female was killed being used as a human shield. One or two other males were killed.
One shot, one kill. Ready to die but never will.

Why are people being patriotic? The US govt has killed a ton more people than Osama, but I guess non-american lives just aren't worth shit.

I don't get how is that relevant. He is a civilian like me and you, and he has a point. Look how many wars United States started, and how many lives they killed.

I'm just saying.

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.

Those are the 2 wars i think we should have never gotten into. But you cannot change the past. Iraq was a stupid war


You ask for examples,you receive them,but you disregard them. "Oh those wars don't count,they were stupid LOLOLOL."...Oh you.

I never disregarded them, you obviously misread my post. HERP DERP

User was warned for this post

"HERP DERP" certainly sums up your posts.

I believe CNN said it was a son of Osama, not a brother. Maybe I heard incorrectly though.
