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.
demoralizing..no one said anything about curing..
the news seemed to take a dumbass turn..."this is a good political move...now the world knows Obama isn't a Muslim"
FFS FOCUS!
ok that's better...people standing at stadiums and cheering, cheering on some streets
According to the report the American strike team was assisted by Pakistani forces...
I wonder who fired the shot and did he know he nailed Bin Laden?
There's a question of 25 million dollars reward...............
Took a lot of time, a lot of money, but you guys did it!
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.
"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
I'm sure he's shocked--- shocked --- to learn that bin Laden was living "in a mansion" 30 miles from the capital of Pakistan.

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.
