Bin Laden is dead Megathread

Postby Goldsaver » Sun May 01, 2011 7:45 pm

Watching FOX and CNN, it is believed that President Obama is about to make an announcement of Bin Laden's death. So far, I've only seen the news, will post online sources when it comes up. US has Body



So, Ten years, and we got him. Will edit with updates as they come up.

Postby Barringtonia » Sun May 01, 2011 7:47 pm

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I don't trust either source, but if this is true - Go United States! That means that Al Qaeda is about to be destroyed, and that is awesome!

No, it won't destroy Al-Qeada, but it is a great blow against them.

I won't believe it until I see a body. And it could be a double, so I might be skeptical of it.

Don't be surprised when this blows up in our faces and Al Qaeda goes on a rampage.

Or they'll see him as a martyr (regardless of the nature of his death) and use this as a tool to spur others to their cause....damn!
