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. | ||

Even if that nuke Al quaida is babbling about blows up in Munich German's will ask for an faster exit out of nuclear power rather than for the death of the attackers. And I am only half joking. Based on this thread I more than half believe you. Germans in particular seem to be very much against celebrations, death of Osama.. Well, the whole situation. Funny how different cultures are and how much they affect the people's views, even neighbouring nations aren't as extreme. Solely based on this thread, I'm obviously implying I'm an expert on Germany. | ||

Though it is unlikely that Bin Laden's death will substantially reduce the threat/prevalence of extremist terrorism, I hope that it will at least provide some peace to the victims of the 'War on Terror' - both US and others alike. | ||

WW2 had a deep effect on Germany and its culture, but I think it's an exeption, in France the reactions would be the same... | ||

On May 02 2011 20:17 partisan wrote: There are tapes of him bragging about the attacks, where in gods name do you people find this stuff. Wikipedia... Osama bin Laden statements after 9/11 The FBI lists bin Laden as one of the "10 Most Wanted" in connection with several incidents including the USS Cole bombing and the 1998 United States embassy bombings in East Africa. The FBI's "FBI Most Wanted Terrorists" poster does not specifically hang responsibility for 9/11 on bin Laden, instead it only states "Bin Laden is a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout the world."[56] Messages issued by bin Laden after September 11, 2001 praised the attacks, and explained their motivation while at first denying any involvement.[57] On September 16, 2001, an Al Jazeera news presenter read a message purportedly signed by Osama bin Laden, in which the following words were stated: I stress that I have not carried out this act, which appears to have been carried out by individuals with their own motivation.[58][59][60] In an interview with Osama bin Laden, published in the Pakistani newspaper Ummat Karachi on September 28, 2001, he stated: "I have already said that I am not involved in the September 11 attacks in the United States. As a Muslim, I try my best to avoid telling a lie. I had no knowledge of these attacks, nor do I consider the killing of innocent women, children and other humans as an appreciable act."[61] There was reportedly no way to prove the e-mail published in Pakistan came from bin Laden. The Taliban denied he had access to any communications.[62][63] http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:4c7CesfM_9EJ:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Responsibility_for_the_September_11_attacks I have already said that I am not involved in the 11 September attacks cnn&cd=1&hl=pt-PT&ct=clnk&gl=pt&source=www.google.pt | ||

What in the definition of conspiracy theory implies that all objects of that criterion are retarded? Im sure you are well aware of many cospiracies that are well verified and documented, so why immediately reject those who have limited proof? | ||

You should probably read them. What? I am fully aware that the human rights declaration by the UN is against child pornography. However I am not aware of an article that says that the government is allowed to censor media of any kind distributed on different mediums (which is what I was talking about). Maybe I am completely wrong there. If I am, just please tell me the article number and I withdraw that statement as an example of "making exceptions is okay". Also I am fully aware that governments mostly ignore the declaration. My point was that not a lot of people say that they are against human rights altogether because they make exceptions.
