Osama Bin Laden has been killed. America has custody of his body.


On May 1, 2011, it was reported that bin Laden was killed during a U.S. military action.[140] DNA from bin Laden's body, compared with DNA samples on record from his dead sister, confirmed bin Laden's identity. The body was recovered by the US military and is currently in its custody.[141]

On this same day, at 23:40 pm EDT, President Obama addressed the nation affirming earlier confirmation by US officials that Osama bin Laden had been killed in a covert operation in Abbottabad, Pakistan, 150km north of Islamabad.[141] Obama indicated this was done by a small team that acted on his orders on that date

Creating a new thread about this is something different than posting this in "This Randon Thread".

I don't consider myself one who should govern who lives and who dies. However, this is a case in which I'm pretty sure we're all unified in saying: Good riddance.

Dude come on.



And good riddance as well. For all the crap going on with the economy this is a nice morale boost.

Got a notification from the our local news on my iPhone this morning about it haha, sheesh.

Anyways, glad he's gone from this world.

Well im not sure where to post in response now, as this thread seems eaten up in a thread war.
Oh well...

The conspiracy theorist in me doesnt want to belive this. Whats their angle?

Eh, quickly buried at sea? Thats seems like a mighty strange thing to do.

I have to belive that there is more to this than...

The news in the Netherlands mentioned it was done this way to prevent Osama's grave becoming a shrine. That does make sense to me, although at first I found it also a bit weird...

I would have preferred that he will have been judged, like Hitler.Not because they are the same for me, but when man act like them they have to explain herself and to be humiliate far away from their ego.

After that yeah we can talk about the fact that a lot of "respectable" presidents or government peoples from what we call democratic country, have killed and destroyed innocents in war and attack, the CIA outlaw plane fly in Europe and their secret jails, Guantanamo, the commercial company influences on those important questions for money, etc... But that will always exist in our modern politic world.

And we can also said (and hope) that there are also great people in those processus, people who really want to help Irakian or the democracy spread, not for economic interest or for populism or to mainten the US world influence and positions...

That's a little bit odd to know that bad guy number one is now dead after all those deads and that dark way he turn the world with 9/11, maybe we will now have aliens for enemy in action movie (like in the 90's).

He's going to be turned into a martyr by his supporters anyways. Shrine or no shrine.

we finally took out our target for ten years, a former employee. clearly this justifies our defense budget.

Please, there's nothing any of us can do about how much time and money went into his capture. No need for cynicism.

So, how many times are we gonna kill this motherfucker?
