Reactions to Bin Laden's death

A face I would love to shoot.

I was watching the Phillies (I think) baseball game when they started chanting USA USA USA and all the players were like wtf is going on lol

AL CIA DA - Benazir Bhutto said that Bin Laden in 2003 was ASSASINATED in 2003!

What went thru bin laden's mind when he saw those seals?
A 556

If I were a betting man, I'd say Bin Laden had been dead for several years before he was "killed". It's easier to sell a war to the public when the face of your enemy is still alive.

You should read up on Seymour Hersh's reporting on Bin Laden's death. Essentially Bin Laden was killed on the "official" date, by our Seals, but under different circumstances. Basically a quid pro quo between us and the Pakistani government; more or less a sanctioned hit. I believe it. There is absolutely no way the Pakistani government was oblivious to Bin Laden living under what amounted to house arrest in Abbottabad near a major military installation. Regardless of the circumstances, his death was a triumph for civilization and I stil lremember how exhilarating that night was.

I’m still a little leery that he actually died on that day. Why no pics released? And a “sea burial” idk about that

Bin Laden was killed about two weeks prior to my recruit training graduation from Parris Island. The uproar in the barracks was unbelievable. First time the DI’s let us feel human in three months and they were fine with it as they were glad too.

But why dump his body in the ocean?
