confirmed, died in a strike team attack of a mansion in Abadadud, Pakistan. Firefight at mansion. strike team took control of his body. Brain tissue DNA matches his sister's DNA.
So, he was burried at sea. I hope there are some pictures of his body to confirm to me at least that he was in fact killed.
Photos are supposedly going to be released this afternoon (according to CBS). Now people will be avoiding eating fish from the Indian Ocean. ;-)
I think he is getting the facts mixed up. http://www.cnn.com/2011/POLITICS/05/02/bin.laden.white.house/index.html?hpt=T2
Last night, I became bored of listening to the news people on tv while waiting for the president to speak. I jumped online and was reading a few news reports/articles. One of the articles stated "Two senior counterterrorism officials confirmed that bin Laden was killed in Pakistan last week." A few minutes later, I found it odd that the president stated that the operation was conducted that day. Within a few minutes the news articles online had been removed and replaced with reports that did not specify a date. Believe whatever you want but it is my opinion that Americans are lied to each and every day.
This isn't the article I mentioned above but it's similar and has the statement. "Two senior counterterrorism officials confirmed that bin Laden was killed in Pakistan last week." http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2011/05/01/general-us-bin-laden_8444589.html
LOL No ****. If words are coming out of a politicians mouth assume they are lies until proven otherwise.
Believe whatever you want but it is my opinion that Americans are lied to each and every day. When was the last time that you really, really trusted what the government was telling you ?
I'm not into buying that Obama is the hero of the day. For once....the guy did what he's suppose to... look out for the interest of THIS country. He didn't find Bin Ladin. Boots on the ground did, CIA, FBI, interrogations at GetMo etc on did. By law the military can't go in without a presidential sign off. So the guys on the ground convince him they have a pretty good case. He has to sign off. If he doesn't.... he's not doing his job. For the first time in his administration Obama did something he's suppose to.... put the good of his country first. That's not his norm. Evidence to that are such things as Obama Care, firing Generals who don't agree with him etc etc. I sure hope that the country doesn't forget his Trillions of debt and the path he's led us down to this point. He's a waste. He can claim Bin Ladin if he wants to.... but he's also got to claim cash for clunkers, trillions of debt to bail outs, over spending etc.
Let's be clear on this: OBAMA did NOT kill Bin Laden. An American soldier, who Obama just a few weeks ago was debating on whether or not to PAY, did. Obama just happened to be the one in office when our soldiers finally found Osama bin Laden and took him out. This is NOT an Obama victory, but an AMERICAN victory!!
