It's about time we just marched right into Pakistan & took care of business. It was a CIA led operation.

I came across this last week:
quote:The mastermind of the 9/11 attacks warned that Al-Qaeda has hidden a nuclear bomb in Europe which will unleash a "nuclear hellstorm" if Osama bin Laden is captured.
Great day for America and the world as a whole. Congratulations to the team that got that job done. It was a long time coming but well worth the wait to hear it confirmed that bastard is a goner. Now finally all the victims of 911 can Rest in Peace and the entire world can rejoice in the fact that one if the most dangerous, disgusting and despicable monsters to ever walk among us will no longer be able to further corrupt humanity and instead will burn forever more in the darkest, hottest and most torturous corner of hell. It's not too often you get to turn on the news and see a positive and wonderful cause for celebration. Tonight was one of those rare opportunities as the ugliest force of evil on earth was extinguished once and for all. Fantastic News! Congrats and Thank You to the USA!

Interesting thing was he wasn't camped out in a mountain cave but staying at what was described as a "luxury compound" in Pakistan with his youngest wife just an hour or so away from the capital. I'm surprised that they have already given him a burial at sea to dispose of his remains by Muslim standards quickly after his demise. I remember after Saddam's sons were killed in a shoot out that they had filmed then released the photographic proof of their corpses to show they really took them out to the world. I wonder if this will be the same.
Main thing is this was the original objective for the invasion of Afghanistan after 9/11. There is closure now for that, but I have a feeling that nothing else is going to change.

BTW there is a phony photo of him already floating around of him being dead. I'll just disprove it for everyone right now...
I'm thinking the "burial at sea" is probably just a cover for the fact that we have his body and have got to hold it for a bit of DNA testing to prove that we really got our "prize."

Hmmm ... I believe Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin and a few others definitely topped Bin Laden in being the most dangerous monsters ever. Sorry, but compared to them Bin Laden was a boy scout.

I don't care because I am wondering since Osama Bin Laden is dead the Govenment say he is. It want effect gasoline prices, food prices and bring jobs to this country. I am concerned about what is the point of telling the good ole american public. However, america is the biggest terrorist of all of the country on earth. I would like to see another country for instance that is searching for an america criminal who terrorized their country. While in college with a major in history I found out who are the dumbiest men on earth and they live in America. ------------------------ By far, "White Women has the sexiest wrinkled soles of them all."

Well, if they did already I hope they wrapped him in ham & bacon before they through him to the fucking sharks.
Posted by Toetapper (Member # 6473) on :
Bravo, U.S. of A.! My hat is off to our military in general and the SEALS specifically.
I hope that the news media moves on and doesn't focus on this for the remainder of the week; there are other matters that we must address, as well.

In related news, the killing of Bin Laden caused gas prices to increase to $5 a gallon.

Posted by Andy-Laa (Member # 31511) on :
Boo-fucking hoo! hahaha
English prices: >£1.20 a litre = >£6.00 a gallon = >$9.89 a gallon
It's been that way for some months now:/
We win on unjustified pricing.

Update: it's now £1.35/litre
= ~$11.07/gallon
Posted by Wrinklesguy (Member # 732) on :
Uhm...Andy.. 1.35 Euro-= $2.21 = $8.85/Gallon roughly, not $11...but still that sucks, luckily you guys can jump on the "community" bus right? lol
Posted by Andy-Laa (Member # 31511) on :
We don't use the Euro?
Hence the pound sign.

Still the same value of $2.21 roughly. Still $8 sucks. Maybe by Nov. next year it will actually be $8 here so we can elect a People's President next time.

No real opinions either way but I do speculate about the "what-ifs" should it be true.
Posted by combine_hunter (Member # 39526) on :
I've listened to some clips of that Alex Jones' radio show on YouTube. It sounds like he's on the button with some of this stuff. Or, at least, closer to the truth than the slop that counts as media in this country.
Posted by Andy-Laa (Member # 31511) on :
I used the first currency converter to hand - that's what it said. Anyway, like you say, $8/Gallon still can suck an asshole.
Posted by Wrinklesguy (Member # 732) on :
Combine even though Alex normally fear mongers, he brings up good points on this OBL thing...it's such a crock of shit. All about getting the president re-elected, but in the end jobs and high gas prices next Nov will be the game changer and they'll all forget about Osama.
