Osama Bin Laden is dead

[DemonGeminiX]

NBC news is reporting that Bin Laden has been killed by a US operation and that US forces currently possess Bin Laden's body. Details soon.

[Godfather]

Turn on the news... Can't find an article yet. Will post one here ASAP, or if someone else finds one. Obama will be addressing the country from the Easter Room shortly.

Fuck Yeah


There will be retaliation from Bin Laden supporters though. That is the scary part.

U.S. President Barack Obama is about to announce Osama bin Laden is dead and the United States has his body, the New York Times reports.

The White House announced Sunday evening he would make an unusual last-minute, late-night statement about national security, but gave no indication of its contents.

As they waited for the contents of his statement, multiple news organizations reported sources in the White House had confirmed bin Laden's death almost a decade after the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon.

these talking heads on tv don't seem to understand that this is not the end of things... if someone killed our president, someone would step up to be the next one.

[DemonGeminiX]

It's worse with terrorists. They're like the mythical Hydra. Cut the head off of the beast, and several heads grow in it's place.

[Oofty Goofty]

True, but it does show them that we have the capability to eventually find them and kill them. This is a happy day!

Bury him in a 10 ft hole filled with pig guts..

Without tearing Obama a new one...he gave credit where it was due and also mentioned 'my' about 10 times....
Near the end he emphasized this wasn't a war on Islam and mentioned that many Muslims have been killed by Bin Laden, good move.

I sincerely hope this has the effect of cutting the head off of the snake...or at least demoralizing the crazies.

I doubt. Bin Laden had not been leading any operations in years and there are so many terrorists groups out there. We've seen they have not slowed down one bit. They will just say Bin Laden was a great martyr and justify more crazy killing and bombing cuz of that. It is like DGX said, the Hydra. Cut one head off and it becomes even more pissed off and grows another one. We need to nuke 'em all in one go. :D

"assisted by Pakistani forces"

pardon my skepticism.

UBL was hiding out next to a Pakistani Army camp, just down the road from the capital of the country.

He wasn't in the "lawless" tribal areas, he was at the heart of the Pakistani state.

Those worthless "allies" were shielding their asset for a decade, and somehow we turned the right screw on the right asshole.

The story at the moment is that he was found in the Bilal section of Abbotabad, coordinates 34°10'15"N 73°14'8"E if you want to Google Map it . .

and just for the fun of it, watch this 2008 interview with Gen. Pervez Mussharraf, then leader of Pakistan (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xfqoq_cnn-interview-with-pervez-musharraf_news)

I'm sure he's shocked--- shocked --- to learn that bin Laden was living "in a mansion" 30 miles from the capital of Pakistan.

[Godfather]

these talking heads on tv don't seem to understand that this is not the end of things... if someone killed our president, someone would step up to be the next one.

True... but this guy planed half a dozen terrorist attacks that got thousands of Americans killed. He may be replaced, but whoever does so will not be known the same way, their name won't weigh so heavily, they won't have comparable power (since 2001 Al Quida has become fragmented), and his replacement won't be capable or able to pull off the same 'feats.' In general the sentiment of 'kill one and 10 others pop up' is true with terrorists... but the last decade has shown us Osama is one who was irreplaceable. Probably the most hated name & face familiar to America since Hitler and Stalin

It's not talking heads who believe this is a huge moment... there are thousands of people gathering around America to celebrate. Getting a conclusion for a figure like this is definitely a great thing, something a long time coming. :thumbsup:

Anyhow, now the US has to actually convince the world that they have nailed him. Not so easy...

News sources are saying that he was buried at sea. I hope the military has some kind of visual evidence to prove to the terrorists that he's dead else they may never believe that it's true. They'll never accept DNA evidence.

Ok. Still early doors and I'm sure the story will "evolve" over the next few days but first impressions are, wow, amazing. No mention of the Royal wedding on tv this morning. Instead of looking at images of thousands of people lining the streets of London, flocking to Buck House I'm now seeing thousands of "USA" chanting "guys" massing outside the Whitehouse.

Honestly. 10 years searching for a guy held mainly responsible for the commencement of the War on terror following the murder of 3000+ civillians in New York and within 10 hours of killing him you chuck his body in the sea because Syria did not want it. :lol:

You know I preferred it when in 2007 Benazir Bhutto, just shortly before she was bumped off told the world in an interview with David Frost that Osama Bin Laden had been killed.

(listen to it all but between 2 mins 10 and 2 mins 21 it gets a tad confusing.) I thought he was killed last night? :-k

[beowulf]

lol....thumps already come out with a storyline

Osama Bin Laden left hugely disappointed by quality of virgins


Recently deceased former Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden is said to be furious about the quality of virgins he has been given in the afterlife, also insisting that his new home is a little on the hot side.

Upon arrival at what he thought was Heaven, Bin Laden was shown to a small shed on the shores of a lake of fire which will be his home for eternity.

Osama told our medium, “Every time I complained that this isn’t what Heaven is meant to be like, the tour guide would laugh and say ‘yes, this is “heaven”‘ – always using those annoying air quote things.”

“I demanded my virgins, like any good martyr, but what they brought me is entirely unacceptable.”

“The line-up looks like the queue outside a Chicago Rock Cafe in Basingstoke – there is a very good reason these women are still virgins.”

“And some of them definitely look like they’ve been around the block a few times. One of them is passing around photos of her kids.”

One of Bin Laden’s new hosts told us, “Look, actual genuine virgins are almost impossible to come by these days, so if they’ve got less than ten partners they count, alright?”


A spokesperson for the virgin community said that it was not only Bin Laden who felt cheated by the arrangements.

One told us, “We’re not overly happy about it either, truth by told.”

“When we signed up for this gig we were told it was eternity with a great warrior, who was a hero to his people – not the world’s most wanted terrorist. My mum always said I should read the fine print.”

“On the bright-side, he seems to be suffering a bit of ‘stage-fright’ downstairs, so this might not be so bad after all.”

[DemonGeminiX]

and within 10 hours of killing him you chuck his body in the sea because Syria did not want it. :lol:

According to news sources, they chucked his body in the sea so his grave would not become a shrine to terrorists.

She may have believed that he was dead, but could have had her facts mixed up. No one ever followed up on the question before her death, and intel sources all over the place since then poured in that he was still alive.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

What great news to see first thing this morning. It's about freaking time we got this bastard. May he rot in hell for all eternity.

And it's just disgusting to me to see where he was found. Do you guys have any idea how much money we (the United States) have funneled into Pakistan in the name of counter-terrorism all these years while they have "helped" with the war against radical Islamists? We should wall up Pakistan and flood it with fucking pig's blood.

Exactly...no doubt someone will step-up and try to take the helm, but this guy will truly be irreplaceable as the face of Al Qaeda. This is a great day for the civilized world and hopefully all those others that will strive to take his place will realize that we will never give up. We will hunt you down and find you no matter how long it takes.

Earlier, it occurred to me:

Turns out I need to make a small correction . . . Musharraf was "surprised" rather than shocked.



London, May 2 (IANS) Former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf said Monday he was surprised Osama bin Laden was in Abbottabad, just a short distance from capital Islamabad. He also termed the US strike against the Al Qaeda leader a violation of Pakistan's sovereignty.
http://mangalorean.com/news.php?newstype=local&newsid=236111


Bear in mind, Bin Laden was living right next to the Pakistan Military Academy, the equivalent of West Point.

What a bunch of miserable duplicitous fuckers. Not that that will surprise any one.

Yes, billions...

And when the war against terror stops, so do the funds to their army. It's in Pakistan's interests to keep the Taliban/Al qaeda under control (so they don't take over the country ) and yet not defeat it entirely ( lest the $$$ dry up).

Osama has left the building...I bet his followers are starting a necro cult as we type. Good thing he's dead though, even if it is a drop in the ocean, really. But the ymbolic value of taking down the figurehead of the movement is considerable. Who's next? Mullah omar?

[FBD]

Zawahiri is next, smarter and probably more dangerous than osama. Almost as much of a figure, but not really.

Waiting for the pics...

"I was too busy killing osama"...um, YAH :lol: you were busy playing golf, sonovabitch!

Good news to wake up to, yes...but unfortunately I turned on my work stuff first and got notice that a dude who until recently was on my team just up and got violently ill and died this weekend, so...osama was a tad bittersweet.

Inside the raid that killed bin Laden
By MATT APUZZO, Associated Press


WASHINGTON – Helicopters descended out of darkness on the most important counterterrorism mission in U.S. history. It was an operation so secret, only a select few U.S. officials knew what was about to happen.

The location was a fortified compound in an affluent Pakistani town two hours outside Islamabad. The target was Osama bin Laden.

Intelligence officials discovered the compound in August while monitoring an al-Qaida courier. The CIA had been hunting that courier for years, ever since detainees told interrogators that the courier was so trusted by bin Laden that he might very well be living with the al-Qaida leader.

Nestled in an affluent neighborhood, the compound was surrounded by walls as high as 18 feet, topped with barbed wire. Two security gates guarded the only way in. A third-floor terrace was shielded by a seven-foot privacy wall. No phone lines or Internet cables ran to the property. The residents burned their garbage rather than put it out for collection. Intelligence officials believed the million-dollar compound was built five years ago to protect a major terrorist figure. The question was, who?

The CIA asked itself again and again who might be living behind those walls. Each time, they concluded it was almost certainly bin Laden.

President Barack Obama described the operation in broad strokes Sunday night. Details were provided in interviews with counterterrorism and intelligence authorities, senior administration officials and other U.S. officials. All spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive operation.

By mid-February, intelligence from multiple sources was clear enough that Obama wanted to "pursue an aggressive course of action," a senior administration official said. Over the next two and a half months, Obama led five meetings of the National Security Council focused solely on whether bin Laden was in that compound and, if so, how to get him, the official said.

Normally, the U.S. shares its counterterrorism intelligence widely with trusted allies in Britain, Canada, Australia and elsewhere. And the U.S. normally does not carry out ground operations inside Pakistan without collaboration with Pakistani intelligence. But this mission was too important and too secretive.

On April 29, Obama approved an operation to kill bin Laden. It was a mission that required surgical accuracy, even more precision than could be delivered by the government's sophisticated Predator drones. To execute it, Obama tapped a small contingent of the Navy's elite SEAL Team Six and put them under the command of CIA Director Leon Panetta, whose analysts monitored the compound from afar.

Panetta was directly in charge of the team, a U.S. official said, and his conference room was transformed into a command center.

Details of exactly how the raid unfolded remain murky. But the al-Qaida courier, his brother and one of bin Laden's sons were killed. No Americans were injured. Senior administration officials will only say that bin Laden "resisted." And then the man behind the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil died from an American bullet to his head.

It was mid-afternoon in Virginia when Panetta and his team received word that bin Laden was dead. Cheers and applause broke out across the conference room.

Was beginning to worry that the bastard would outlive me. Thank God for proper retribution. The coward died cowering behind a female human shield. Now he's rotting fish bait. I hope a horny dolphin has its way with his sinking corpse before the cretin's bones rest on the ocean floor to feed the hagfish. I know it's not a particularly Christian way of assessing the death of another human being but I'll rationalize this to myself by saying that his credentials for being a human were less believable than Obama's birth certificate. Yeah, I know, I've been out of the loop on that one. Good-bye, Osama, you'll be Hitler's bitch in Hell, baby.

All credit to the President and his team for getting the job done. Thanks to the bitch in Guantanamo who finally dropped the dime about Bin Laden's couriers that got the ball rolling. Thanks to former President Bush for never giving up. Thanks to the gallant men and women in Ops and the CIA who put it all in motion and who made us proud.

If my days will end here in Gotham, then I at least I now know the villain who caused the greatest wound and grief on the world's greatest city has finally be sent to be judged by a greater power. Just great.

"assisted by Pakistani forces"

pardon my skepticism.

UBL was hiding out next to a Pakistani Army camp, just down the road from the capital of the country.

He wasn't in the "lawless" tribal areas, he was at the heart of the Pakistani state.

Those worthless "allies" were shielding their asset for a decade, and somehow we turned the right screw on the right asshole.

The story at the moment is that he was found in the Bilal section of Abbotabad, coordinates 34°10'15"N 73°14'8"E if you want to Google Map it . .

and just for the fun of it, watch this 2008 interview with Gen. Pervez Mussharraf, then leader of Pakistan (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xfqoq_cnn-interview-with-pervez-musharraf_news)

I'm sure he's shocked--- shocked --- to learn that bin Laden was living "in a mansion" 30 miles from the capital of Pakistan.

Just relating the radio reports as they came in.





As for St George's post questioning the burial at sea...as DGX mentioned, it's a move so that the zealots don't have a shrine to recognize, VERY good move IMO.

If I may...the terrorists are already going to cry foul, I think we should of stuffed Bin Laden's body with formaldehyde and straw, then inflated it with helium and floated that bastard's corpse in the Macy's Day parade :thumbsup:




and one last..I heard sound bytes featuring various reporters from last night confusing Osama with Obama.The best was " President Obama has been shot, the world is rejoicing " :lol:




Fucking well done America, it took awhile but you nailed the face of terrorism and I hope those other mooks think twice before stepping up :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

After 10 years of looking and following 10 years of bloodshed within the first 10 hours of finding and killing this bastard the first thing you would do is dump him in the sea.

:lol:

Do you not think it possible that his body has been retained and they are just saying this so that" the zealots don't have a shrine to recognize"

I don't know anything anymore than the average man in the street. I have just spent the last 7 hours, (admittedly getting pised at a BBQ), in the company of family member who was an officer in the British army at the heights of the "troubles" with the IRA in the 70's/80's. He was telling me that the news reports that came out then did not correlate with what he was witnessing at ground level.

We can all agree that Osama is dead. When or how it actually happened you nor I will ever never know.

The only thing I know for certain is that my wife and I are currently potty training our 21 month daughter. Sometimes she gets it right and pees/poos in the potty, other times she wees and shits in her pants. I bet the fucking story would be different if the beeb was running it!

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Since he was a soldier and on a specific mission, I doubt he will be eligible for the reward unfortunately.

@ St George

The first post I mentioned that they said his body was interred at sea, in order to prevent something further from happening by the followers,
I never said that's what actually did happen, as I wasn't there.

and this post a few posts before your little blast at me....

If you want to know what I really think on any issue, you are always welcome TO ASK ME.Here are my thoughts on this story just for the record - the burial at sea is a cover story, they have his body and will sequester it away forever somewhere and the public will never know......

As the 5000 posts bullshit and your obvious hidden attitude towards me, maybe after you do get 5000 posts you will be able to read with some degree of literal comprehension before you level your critical and sarcastic drivel towards someone else who's done nothing but welcome you and be civil.

I must've misinterpreted your "tin foil hat reference". I reafirm that nobody knows what the hell has happened.

I bet even the guy taking all the credit, yeap Obama, was handed a piece of paper with someone saying, "yeah I know what it says, just read the damn thing will ya".

We now "officially" have one less mass murdering shithead on the planet and for that we are truly thankful. Onto the next one eh?

What with the Royal wedding and now the announcement of the death of Osama I think I've had enough euphoria for one weekend and to be quite honest Hal, after the amount I've supped, I haven't got enough room for any more beers sir!

You are clearly not English. This is indeed sarcasm. This is how we discuss stuff.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

You are clearly not English. This is indeed sarcasm. This is how we discuss stuff.

Veiled insults at me are not helping your case. I do indeed get sarcasm and use it a lot myself. That to me is more than sarcasm and that's what matters here.

Now let's drop it and move on.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

For anyone (including myself) that didn't get to see Obama's presser last night, here's the the text from the speech:


Tonight, I can report to the American people and to the world that the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of al Qaeda, and a terrorist who's responsible for the murder of thousands of innocent men, women and children.

It was nearly 10 years ago that a bright September day was darkened by the worst attack on the American people in our history. The images of 9/11 are seared into our national memory. Hijacked planes cutting through a cloudless September sky.

The Twin Towers collapsing to the ground. Black smoke billowing up from the Pentagon. The wreckage of Flight 93 in Shanksville, Pennsylvania where the actions of heroic citizens saved even more heartbreak and destruction.

And yet we know that the worst images are those that were unseen to the world. The empty seat at the dinner table.

Children who were forced to grow up without their mother or their father. Parents who would never know the feeling of their child's embrace.

Nearly 3,000 citizens taken from us, leaving a gaping hole in our hearts.

On September 11th, 2001, in our time of grief, the American people came together. We offered our neighbors a hand, and we offered the wounded our blood. We reaffirmed our ties to each other and our love of community and country.

On that day, no matter where we came from, what god we prayed to or what race or ethnicity we were, we were united as one American family. We were also united in our resolve, to protect our nation and to -- to bring those who committed this vicious attack to justice.

We quickly learned that the 9/11 attacks were carried out by al Qaeda, an organization headed by Osama bin Laden, which had openly declared war on the United States and was committed to killing innocents in our country and around the globe. And so we went to war against al Qaeda, to protect our citizens, our friends, and our allies.

Over the last 10 years, thanks to the tireless and heroic work of our military and our counterterrorism professionals, we've made great strides in that effort. We've disrupted terrorist attacks and strengthened our homeland defense.

In Afghanistan, we removed the Taliban government which had given bin Laden and al Qaeda safe haven and support. And around the globe, we worked with our friends and allies to capture or kill scores of al Qaeda terrorists including several who were a part of the 9/11 plot.

Yet, Osama bin Laden avoided capture and escaped across the Afghan border into Pakistan. Meanwhile, al Qaeda continued to operate from along that border and operate through its affiliates across the world.

And so shortly after taking office, I directed Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda. Even as we continued our broader efforts to disrupt, dismantle and defeat his network.

Then last August, after years of painstaking work by our intelligence community, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden. It was far from certain. And it took many months to run this thread to ground.

I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside Pakistan.

And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice.

Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abad Abad, Pakistan. A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care to avoid civilian casualties.

After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body.

For over two decades, bin Laden has been al Qaeda's leader and symbol and has continued to plot attacks against our country and our friends and allies.

The death of bin Laden marks the most significant achievement to date in our nation's effort to defeat al Qaeda.

And his death does not mark the end of our effort. There's no doubt that al Qaeda will continue to pursue attacks against us. We must and we will remain vigilant at home and abroad.

As we do, we must also reaffirm that the United States is not and never will be at war with Islam. I've made clear just as President Bush did shortly after 9/11 that our war is not against Islam. Bin laden was not a Muslim leader. He was a mass murderer of Muslims. Indeed, al Qaeda slaughtered scores of Muslims in many countries including our own.

So his demise should be welcomed by all who believe in peace and human dignity. Over the years, I've repeatedly made clear that we would take action within Pakistan if we knew where bin Laden was. That is what we've done.

But it's important to note that our counterterrorism cooperation with Pakistan helped lead us to bin Laden and the compound where he was hiding. Indeed, bin Laden had declared war against Pakistan as well and ordered attacks against the Pakistani people.

Tonight I called President Zardari, and my team has also spoken with their Pakistani counterparts. They agree that this is a good and historic day for both of our nations. And going forward, it is essential that Pakistan continue to join us in the fight against al Qaeda and its affiliates.

The American people did not choose this fight. It came to our shores and started with the senseless slaughter of our citizens. After nearly 10 years of service, struggle and sacrifice, we know well the costs of war.

These efforts weigh on me every time I, as commander in chief, have to sign a letter to a family that has lost a loved one or look into the eyes of a service member who's been gravely wounded.

So Americans understand the costs of war. Yet as a country, we will never tolerate our security being threatened, nor stand idly by when our people have been killed. We will be relentless in defense of our citizens and our friends and allies. We will be true to the values that make us who we are.

And on nights like this one, we can say to those families who have lost loved ones to al Qaeda's terror, justice has been done.

Tonight we give thanks to the countless intelligence and counterterrorism professionals who've worked tirelessly to achieve this outcome. The American people do not see their work nor know their names, but tonight they feel the satisfaction of their work and the result of their pursuit of justice.

We give thanks for the men who carried out this operation, for they exemplify the professionalism, patriotism and unparalleled courage of those who serve our country. And they are part of a generation that has borne the heaviest share of the burden since that September day.

Finally, let me say to the families who lost loved ones on 9/11, that we have never forgotten your loss, nor wavered in our commitment to see that we do whatever it takes to prevent another attack on our shores.

And tonight, let us think back to the sense of unity that prevailed on 9/11. I know that it has, at times, frayed. Yet today's achievement is a testament to the greatness of our country and the determination of the American people.

The cause of securing our country is not complete, but tonight we are once again reminded that America can do whatever we set our mind to. That is the story of our history. Whether it's the pursuit of prosperity for our people or the struggle for equality for all our citizens, our commitment to stand up for our values abroad, and our sacrifices to make the world a safer place.

Let us remember that we can do these things not just because of wealth or power, but because of who we are, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

Thank you. May God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America.

[St. George]

In no way or through any sentence structure did I indicate your post was wrong, you were wrong or that Amy Winehouse would be a good lay.Your response however, made it seem like I called you an idiot, fucked your wife and held my posting experience here over your head like some badge of honor.

As for your post mentioning ''words which could've been misconstrued as attitude".....nothing was misconstrued at all, it was quite apparent and blatant :lol: You strike me as someone who won't apologize even when proven wrong and perhaps out of line....that's fine, I'll still sleep tonight and we'll both be back posting tomorrow.

HERE, YOU ARE INCORRECT. NOTE I SAID INCORRECT LANCE AND NOT UNCORRECT! >>>>>>>>>>>>>:rolleyes: (SARCASM). ANYBODY WHO TRULY KNOWS ME, KNOWS THAT IF I HAVE TO GIVE AN APOLOGY BECAUSE I THINK I AM IN THE WRONG THEN I WILL GIVE ONE. IN LIGHT OF THE RESPONSE I GIVE TO LANCE BELOW I FEEL THAT YOUR COMMENT IN BOLD ABOVE MAY NOT BE THE CASE.

Getting bin Laden: How the mission went down


By: Mike Allen

May 2, 2011 10:32 AM EDT



The helicopter carrying Navy SEALs malfunctioned as it approached Osama bin Laden’s compound at about 3:30 p.m. ET Sunday, stalling as it hovered. The pilot set it down gently inside the walls, then couldn’t get it going again.

It was a heart-stopping moment for President Barack Obama, who had been monitoring the raid in the White House Situation Room, surrounded by members of his war cabinet.

“Obviously, everyone was thinking about Black Hawk Down and Desert One,” a senior administration official recalled.

The SEALs disembarked.

“The assault team went ahead and raided the compound, even though they didn’t know if they would have a ride home,” an official said.

The special forces put bombs on the crippled chopper and blew it up, then lifted off in a reinforcement craft just before 4:15 p.m., capping an astounding 40 minutes that gave the United States a tectonic victory in the 10-year war on terror touched off by 9/11.

“The world is safer. It is a better place because of the death of Osama bin Laden,” Obama said at the White House Monday.

The sick chopper turned out to be a tiny wrinkle in an astounding military and intelligence triumph. Bin Laden was shot in the face by the SEALs during a firefight after resisting capture.

Bin Laden’s body was taken to the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson, and he was buried in the North Arabian Sea overnight — less than 12 hours after the raid, officials said. DNA from the remains provided certain confirmation that bin Laden was dead. He was 54.

Briefing reporters at the White House Monday, Obama’s counterterrorism adviser John Brennan said the special-ops team that went into the compound was prepared to take bin Laden alive, but he resisted. A woman - one of bin Laden’s many wives - was used as a human shield for bin Laden during the firefight, and was killed, Brennan said.

Brennan declined to describe exactly how White House officials monitored the firefight and said the confirmation that the man killed at the compound was bin Laden came in through the day, as the body was identified by various means. “There wasn’t one ‘A-ha’ when the DNA came in,” Brennan said. “It was building over time.”

As for convincing skeptics that the man killed was the Al Qaeda mastermind, Brennan said the White House is still considering what other evidence to release — including whether to release a photograph of bin Laden’s body. “We are going to do everything we can to make sure nobody has any basis to try to deny that we got Osama bin Laden,” Brennan said.

Here’s how the world’s most-hunted man was vanquished, as recounted by senior administration officials:

Contrary to the intelligence community’s long-held belief that bin Laden was in a lawless “no man’s land” on the Pakistani border, bin Laden had been hiding in a three-story house in a one-acre compound in Abbottabad, about 35 miles north of Islamabad, the Pakistani capital. Officials describe it as a relatively affluent community, with lots of residents who are retired military.

“Bin Laden was living in a relatively comfortable place: a compound valued at about $1 million,” a senior U.S. official told POLITICO. “Many of his foot soldiers are located in some of the remotest regions of Pakistan and live in austere conditions. You’ve got to wonder if they’re rethinking their respect for their dead leader. He obviously wasn’t living as one of them.”

Officials described the raid as the culmination of years of highly advanced intelligence work that included the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), which specializes in imagery and maps, and the National Security Agency (NSA), the “codemakers and codebreakers” who can covertly watch and listen to conversations around the world.

On June 2, 2009, just over four months into his presidency, Obama had signed a memo to CIA Director Leon Panetta stating “in order to ensure that we have expanded every effort, I direct you to provide me within 30 days a detailed operation plan for locating and bringing to justice” bin Laden.

In the biggest break in a global pursuit of bin Laden that stretched back to the Clinton administration, the U.S. discovered the compound by following one of the terrorist’s personal couriers, identified by terrorist detainees as one of the few al Qaeda couriers who bin Laden trusted.

“They indicated he might be living with and protecting bin Laden,” a senior administration official told reporters on a midnight conference call. “Detainees gave us his nom de guerre, or his nickname, and identified him as both a protégé of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of September 11th, and a trusted assistant of Abu Faraj al-Libbi, the former number three of al Qaeda who was captured in 2005.”

Officials didn’t learn the courier’s name until 2007. Then it took two years to find him and track him back to this compound, which was discovered in August 2010.

“It was a “Holy cow!” moment,” an official said.

The compound had been relatively secluded when it was built in 2005 — on the outskirts of the town center, at the end of a narrow dirt road.

“In the last six years, some residential homes have been built nearby,” an official said on the call. “The main structure, a three-story building, has few windows facing the outside of the compound. A terrace on the third floor … has a seven-foot privacy wall. … [T]he property is valued at approximately $1 million but has no telephone or Internet service connected to it.”

Everything about the compound signaled that it was being used to hide someone important.

“It has 12- to 18-foot walls topped with barbed wire,” the official said. “Internal wall sections — internal walls sectioned off different portions of the compound to provide extra privacy. Access to the compound is restricted by two security gates, and the residents of the compound burn their trash, unlike their neighbors, who put the trash out for collection.

For all their suspicions, U.S. officials never knew for sure that bin Laden was inside.

The White House’s original plan had been to bomb the house, but Obama ultimately decided against that.

“The helicopter raid was riskier. It was more daring,” an official told POLITICO. “But he wanted proof. He didn’t want to just leave a pile of rubble.”

Officials knew there were 22 people living there, and Obama wanted to be sure not to kill civilians unnecessarily. So he ordered officials to come up with an air-assault plan.

The SEALs held rehearsals of the raid on April 7 and April 13, with officials monitoring the action from Washington.

As the real thing approached, daily meetings were held of the national security principals, chaired by National Security Adviser Tom Donilon, and their deputies, chaired by Brennan, Obama’s counterterrorism adviser.

Over the past seven weeks, Obama had chaired numerous National Security Council meetings on the topic, including ones on March 14, March 29, April 12, April 19 and April 28.

“In the lead up to this operation, the President convened at least 9 meetings with his national security Principals,” a senior administration official e-mailed reporters. “Principals met formally an additional five times themselves; and their Deputies met 7 times. This was in addition to countless briefings on the subject during the President’s intelligence briefings; and frequent consultations between the [White House National Security Council], CIA, [Defense Department] and Joint Staff. The President was actively involved in reviewing all facets of the operation.”

At an April 19 meeting in the Situation Room, the president approved the air assault as the course of action. He ordered the force to fly to the region to conduct it.

Last Thursday, just after his East Room announcement that Panetta would succeed Robert Gates as Defense Secretary, the president held another meeting in the Situation Room, and went through everyone’s final recommendations.

Obama didn’t announce his decision at the meeting, but kept his counsel overnight.

In the White House Diplomatic Room at 8:20 a.m. on Friday, before flying down to view tornado destruction in Alabama, Obama informed Donilon that he was authorizing the operation. Also attending the meeting were Brennan, White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley and Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough.

Donilon signed a written authorization to Panetta, who commanded the strike team. Donilon convened a principals’ meeting at 3 p.m. to finish the planning.

The raid was scheduled for Saturday, the day when Obama and most of the West Wing was due at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. But weather pushed it to Sunday.

Top West Wing staff worked most of the day on the operation. Senior national-security officials stayed in the Situation Room beginning at 1 p.m.

The official’s e-mail gave this account of Obama’s day: “2:00pm the President met with the Principals to review final preparations. … 3:32pm the President returned to the Sit Room for an additional briefing. … 3:50pm the President first learns that UBL was tentatively identified. … 7:01pm the President learns that there’s a ‘high probability’ the HVT [high-value target] was [bin Laden]. … 8:30pm the President receives further briefings.”

Obama went golfing at Andrews Air Force Base on Sunday, leaving the White House at 9:42 a.m. and returning at 2:04 p.m.

In the Situation Room, the president was surrounded by Daley, Donilon, McDonough, Gates, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mike Mullen, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and others.

Panetta was at CIA headquarters, where he had turned his conference room into a command center that gave him constant contact with the tactical leaders of the strike team.

With the team still in the compound, the commander on the ground told a remote commander that they had found bin Laden.

Applause erupted in Washington.

Three other adult males were killed with bin Laden, officials said.

“We believe two were the couriers and the third was bin Laden’s adult son,” an official said on the call. “There were several women and children at the compound. One woman was killed when she was used as a shield by a male combatant. Two other women were injured.”

U.S. forces took photographs of the body, and officials used facial-recognition technology to compare them with known pictures of bin Laden. Authorities matched the DNA to DNA from other members of bin Laden’s family.

It was him.

At 11:35 p.m., Obama stepped into the East Room and told the world: “Justice has been done.”

I just find the need to namecheck our two-faced Quislings in news reports a bit silly -- that's not you, that's the reporting.

It reminds me of that scene in the last Transformer movie, when a key juncture, someone says "Here come the Jordanians" (or was it Egyptians?) as if they're supposed to help anything . . .

just reading Anthz's post....wow, I'm impressed.The timeline makes Obama seem like he has nerves of steel.Did he golf the same day the order was carried out? :lol:


also a hal editorial - Can you imagine if Obama was attacked and he used his wife as a human shield?????

to Bin laden - F.F.S. you coward using followers/relatives in that manner.And living in relative luxury 'hiding out' while his footmen live in dirt.

Limbaugh has offered the oddest comment so far . . . it sounds like he's sincerely praising Obama, but . . . is it sarcastic? I can't tell.

The decision to go in and see who we were shooting, get a real positive ID -- that was important. If you just blow up a building . . . then you're stuck never really knowing. And of course, you make the blast site a martyr-pilgrimage site.



"You see the military wanted to go in there and bomb, like they always do…But President Obama, perhaps the only qualified member in the room to deal with this, insisted on the special forces," he explained.

"Our military wanted to go in there and just scorch the earth leaving no evidence of anything after the mission. But President Obama single-handedly understood what was at stake here. He alone understood the need to get DNA to prove the death, Obama alone understood the aftermath."

According to Limbaugh, Obama's success must be linked to former President George W. Bush.

"We need to never forget that President Obama deserves praise for continuing the policies established by George W. Bush which led to the learning, the acquisition of this intel that led us to the enlarged hut in Pakistan that led to the assassination of bin Laden last night," he declared.

"Thank God for President Obama. If he had not been there, who knows what would've happened."

Just listening to the radio - a Pakistani historian/political commentator interview.

He was saying that there was no way Bin Laden could have moved in there without knowledge and protection and secondly that the US must have known for some time that OBL was living there (they would have only needed to ask their allies right ;) ).

Was Rush Limbaugh's Praise of President Obama All Sarcasm?
By Sara Hammel - People Magazine


President Barack Obama received bipartisan praise for his handling of the operation to kill Osama bin Laden – but was there one high-profile exception?

Rush Limbaugh opened his radio show Monday with effusive – and highly uncharacteristic – praise, ending with, "Thank God for President Obama."

But later in the show, Limbaugh broke into laughter while reading aloud a publication that appeared to take his earlier comments literally.

[beowulf]

he other old guy (we call him Gandhi's Dad) is from Africa and he's Muslim.

Confused yet? :lol:

actually...no.....you need to know some history of the British Empire...........back in victorian days they had this idea to build a railway from uganda to kenya and the indian ocean...plus lots of others in africa to set up a rail network.........cos they needed skilled labour to do it they 'imported' it from india where we had the railways running for a long time.......skilled labour and management were from india.....so of course theres lots of their descendants in africa today..........famously idi amin threw them all out of uganda back in the 70's when he was in charge......and the way i understood it, back in apartheid days in south africa the indian population made up a third 'class' besides black and white, and didnt qualify as either!!

[Goofy]

I wonder about the exact moment...the strike team goes in, they start a firefight and then someone pulls the ankles of a dead, elderly dude and realizes it's the head cheese.

I know they're professionals but I bet at least one American let out a WOOT! or a Fucking EH Bubba!!!! :dance:
