  • I heard that Greenpeace was going to have a protest for polluting the ocean with Osama Bin Dead Laden

  • Why must politics be center stage for everything 🙁

    Does anyone really think that any president would not have struck, but waited until his presence was a certainty?

    Credit Obama for ordering the kill, but the real heroes are the Navy Seals and Intelligence.

    Go USA!

  • In theory; Obama will award himself the Congressional Medal of Honor for continuing Bush's war against terrorism.

    Interesting. Assasaination is the new thing with libs ! YAY !

    If this had been Bush, it would have been (and was) said to be "HE COULD HAVE HAD bin laden all along, BUT HE WAITED

    UNTIL IT WOULD HELP HIM IN THE POLLS !".

    But now, no, now it's opposite land, as usual.

    Even the a few nasty, hateful wenches on The View show, one even said we should cancel the 2012 election....

    I'll say this:

    THANK YOU, PRESIDENT BUSH, for declaring the War on Terror, and GITMO.

    THANK YOU, President Obamao, for continuing what PRESIDENT BUSH STARTED, and for NOT CLOSING GITMO (you lying sack of elephant doo)...

    and for ordering the operation to go ahead.

    But, I hear that obama osama was ditched into the ocean, because he's a Muslim? No, he's a terrorist, and his body should have been brought back

    to be examined for evidence, that we might have gotten infromation from.

    But seriously, you don't mess with our U.S.A. ... we have Navy Seals, our entire military. But you REALLY don't mess with our Special Forces - Navy Seals.... They rock !

    How does this go? look here to see what Libs wanted right after 911

    AMERICAN LAW AND POLICY ON ASSASSINATIONS OF FOREIGN LEADERS: THE PRACTICALITY OF MAINTAINING THE STATUS QUO

    Abstract: Suspending the ban on assassinationsas established in Executive Order 12333serves no practical purpose. The Executive Order is not an obstacle to effective prosecution of the War on Terrorism; in fact, its reach is very limited. Although common sense might suggest that assassination equates with the targeted killing of a specific individual, the term is in fact a legal term of art with a very narrow definition derived from the Law of War. As a result, Executive Order 12333 only prohibits a very narrow spectrum of attacks in wartime or against clear threats to national security. As the United States has not typically engaged such means to attack leadership targets for several decades, publicly rescinding the offer now would grant no more freedom to act and only would serve to undermine the United States public diplomacy abroad.

    And Steve, I still don't think waterboarding should be standard protocol for high priority prisoners.

    Anyways, my biggest question is this... What the xxxx, Pakistan? What's gonna happen with them? There's no way they didn't know about this.

    We should use a blow torch and tweezers.

    We had intel for over 6 months that Bin Laden was there. And King Obama waited and waited and waited until it would be political right for him to take credit for the murder death kill.

    By far the gayest thing I have read here in a while.

  • Nah, too many people would know...

    truth is, I remember a lot of libs complaining ahead of time, angry that they "knew" Bush would have Obamao killed just

    in time to make sure he won the election.

    Oopsie. He won it again anyways.

    Besides, it's Obamao's domestic/economic policies that are driving down his approval rating.

    Obamao did make the right decision. Any pres would, I think. Well, there WAS jimmy carter... and LBJ....

    Well, I knew about the Muslim quickie burial thingie after Dodi Fayeed got killed along with Princess Di.

    Of course the extremist Muslim Clerics still bitched that it's only proper to bury a Muslim at sea is if they died at sea, and there's no way to get the body to land in time for burial.

    The only useful thing they could have done (shades of William Wallace) with Osama's body in the USA would have been to put his head on pole at Ground Zero.

  • I think they buried him in a garbage bag with pigs blood and intestines.

    I wonder how the US got choppers so close to a Pak military base without them finding out?

    Nap of the earth. Basically, they fly in really low to avoid radar, and really fast to get there before the enemy can radio in the approach. And wasn't it next to a military academy, not a military base?

  • They did find out. They'd already scrambled a response.

    Read the New York Times account. It's amazing.

    Behind the Hunt for Bin Laden

  • They likely found out from sporadic reports of helicopters flying over. I really doubt they ever popped up on Pak radar. I'm shocked that they spent 40 minutes in the compound and no Pak aircraft made it to them before exfiltration.

    Also. Fantastic article, heck.

  • An amazingly successful operation that could have gone horribly wrong. Obama staked his entire presidency on this. If this ended up being the Iranian hostage rescue or Blackhawk Down you'd have a huge, international incident that would have been a massive national embarrassment. It would have been the end of his presidency. In fact, Gates didn't want to do it. He preferred the bombing option. Obama chose the riskier option. That's ballsy.

  • Thank God for men like General David Petraeus and our military who have been trained and equipped as the best fighting force in the world.

    tell them Thank You!

  • I'm applauding both Bush and Obamao for the whole War on Terror, culiminating with Obamao's decision to take him out.

    Most of the entire structure and policies that continue to this day, and have been successful, were implemented by the Bush Admin.

    Obamao, now that he is in the hot seat, sees things a lot differently than when he was an ignorant left wing smart ass.

    Now, he's the man, and had to decide. Solid decision we can all be proud of.

  • OBL had a US target on his butt for the past 15 years. It amazes me how he was able to elude capture not only by the US Special Op Force community, but from the best of

    the world's terrorist hunting forces, including the Israeli Mossad. Keep in mind he had a 25 million dollar bounty on his dirty butt. To me, this illustrates just how

    much influence and power he wielded in the bastion of Muslim Jihad. The power vacuum created by his demise will be quickly sustained by the best of his pupils. Sadly, his

    maytyrdom will only fuel a continued hatred towards the west. We may have won the battle, but the war will continue to wage.
