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.

And people wonder why this is such a big deal...


Yeah I think 90% of us didn't really give a shit, it was just fun as hell to be in a crowd that big with that many people haha


Pretty much. Most of the people don't give a shit about the country or the situation. They just want to be "in on the fun". Pretty sad, really.

I was in second grade when the Challenger exploded. It was something terrible and everyone was experiencing it together. In some ways it was my first "adult" experience, because I learned the world was sometimes a pretty horrible place (it was similar for the Tienanmen square massacre).

For a kids who are in college now were just 8-12 when 9/11 happened. Their entire adolescence and adulthood has experienced an America going though this decade-long, depressed, impotent funk. This is like V-Day, or the fall of the Berlin wall or at least the Miracle on Ice.


Not really. This is ultimately only a symbolic victory, nothing really substantive or game-changing.

Which is why I listed the fall of the Berlin wall and the Miracle on Ice, which were both symbolic victories.


Meh, I guess I've just become too jaded about the whole "War on Terror" thing, because I'm honestly quite apathetic. Yeah, it's a good thing the fucker's dead, but Osama hasn't seemed relevant to me for years.

Because he isn't,but atleast all the billion of dollars and thousands of lives lost (besides 9/11) while looking for the person didn't go completely to waste and the US was able to produce results...If only it was this simple to end terrorism.Kill the "leader" and be done with it...Atleast it will give the families closure.That's worth something.


it may not end terrorism, but it can make it less cohesive. there will be infighting, factions may split off, who knows, they may spend more time trying to take over the power vacuum than trying to kill US soldiers, which im all for.

Historical Fact! (From the Guardian) The death of Adolf Hitler was also first announced on 1 May (after his bunker-suicide on 30 April).

There were students outside my dorm shouting "USA USA" at each dorm building, Woke me up from my nap. I had no fucking clue about what was going on, until I went on the internet.


Haha, what was your first thought? You must've at least had a random guess or two as to what was going on... First thoughts upon seeing the madness?

At first, I thought those students were just some unruly frat doing some unruly frat stuff, especially considering the manly nature of their voices.

Then I got out of my bed and onto my computer. My roommate told me that Osama died, and I was like "the fuck?" Confirmed the news on TL.net and Reddit.

I wont ask were you got the numbers from and even tho it's a good question to ask,i think you'll get attacked by the people in this forum for stating it.Funny,isn't it?Tho,it wasn't just one man.

Oh really? How do you know that? I'd love for you to fill me in on all the information you've known that's led you to conclude that he's been dead for a decade.


I'm not here to prove anything to anybody. I just enjoy being spit on because my opinion and my information rarely lines up with what the big shiny screen and the men in suits so adamantly inform us. Adds some spice to the thread:

You're making not only highly contrarian statements but also unfounded/unsupported by evidence ones. Be prepared for the backlash for doing so rather than blaming the hivemind.

Yeah, JeBi, you're such a freethinker! Way to see through the bullshit!

If we all congratulate you on your keen insight and your ability to avoid being brainwashed like the rest of us, will you agree to leave the thread?
If it were not so, I would have told you.

Or the removal of the Taliban. Iraq is largely unrelated to 9/11 but it is much better off today than it was under Saddam.

"... all for one man" is a huge stretch. It's not like we're halting all future operations and bringing every troop back home.
