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.

I can think of far worse mission scenarios to have to train for, an ambush is relatively easy.

Fantastic news. As people have pointed out, this probable wont stop terrorism in anyway but the death of Osama who is the face of terrorism is the biggest moral booster the war on terror will ever receieve. Congratz to the USA, I know you guys needed this more then any other country.

Yes.

But if you want to know the specifics, you really shouldn't be too lazy to just read the thread.

I bet those CTs were worried about lag when they entered the server.
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

More media outlets saying it was Navy Seals Team 6


Yeah I called it wrong, thought it was delta.

Seal team 6 are just as capable job well done.


Seal Team 6 is not an entity. Look it up. Delta & DevGru specialize in counter-terrorist operations, so it isn't impossible that it was either.

My best guess is that it would have been a Joint Special Operations initiative involving SEALs and perhaps Army Rangers - best Direct Actions operators there is to offer.


What do you mean entity?

The United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG), commonly known as DEVGRU and informally by its former name SEAL Team Six (ST6), is what I was refering to.

What I meant to say is according to media outlets(which is totally unconfirmed of course), they claim it was a Navy seals operation along with intelligence agencies.
I mentioned a couple of posts earlier I thought it would be delta.

Poyo! poyo! poyo! poyo! poyo!

Yes, intense indeed. There are about ~3,000 men like that, and perhaps another few thousand similar, from other outfits like the PJs, CCs, green berets, rangers, marsoc, force recon, etc. The reality is, the mission was typical for them. They train to this much and far more, everyday. They'll be back at it tomorrow, mark my words.

This is amazing. I'm glad that something has gotten done. Clearly Osama had no intentions on bettering humanity in a peaceful manner and I'm glad he has been dealt with.

I do not believe this to be the case, but I worry that Osama Bin Laden acted has a Castro for al'qaeda. Having him in that position created some stability mind you that stability was weekly suicide bombing in the middle east. Now with Osama dead a new leader will rise up and this new leader might be even worse.
