Osama Bin Laden reportedly dead
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.

Would love to be the solidier that put a bullet through that guys head
Good riddance mother fucker.
Hope it demoralizes terrorist organizations world-wide. Sounds like he was in Afghanistan.

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.
Exactly...they'll just replace him with a healthier nutcaseOriginally Posted by deebakes
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.

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.
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).
Fuck them, and go the US

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.
True, but it does show them that we have the capability to eventually find them and kill them. This is a happy day!
these people are willing to blow themselves up for their cause. i don't think that they are afraid of us in the slightest.
Their leaders aren't willing to blow themselves up. They brainwash some poor son of a bitch into doing that.these people are willing to blow themselves up for their cause. i don't think that they are afraid of us in the slightest.
