Okay, everyone who believes that we shouldn't have pursued Bin Laden, but kindly asked him to turn himself in so we could give him a fair trial type "aye".

Nay. Because it was accidental.

Do you even know whom, and what you are talking about?

"Let the situation resolve itself"?

What a great foreign policy! Screw Sudan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, let's just wait for the situation to resolve itself. Because the people whom are killing the defenceless will get tired after a while.

I haven'r read all 700 posts on this thread, so if somebody's already pointed this out, I'm sorry.
But has it occurred to those celebrating jerks on my TV right now that they're in danger?
Just because bin Laden is dead doesn't mean al Qaeda is. And right now, if I were a high-ranking surviving member of al Qaeda, I would not hesitate to make my play for power within the organization right now. And if a big, mass-casualty attack does happen within the next few hours, which is more likely right now than at any time ever in the past 10 years, those folks celebrating right now...
Well, let's hope looking stupid is the only thing they have to worry about.

Body confirmed by DNA testing from the corpse that was recovered by JSOC operatives after the raid. Osama bin Laden is dead. With this momentous occasion, we can confirm right now that President Barrack Obama will be re-elected in 2012. I'm sure he was going to be elected, though an arduous fight it would have been, this moment has fully cemented it. Things may get dirty in the following weeks and eventually the Republicans will find something to throw at him, but for now he is golden-boy and untouchable.

Fuck that.

The answer to their hate is to HATE THEM RIGHT BACK. Fucking exterminate the lot of them. Hang them, bomb them, shoot them until they're all dead and will never fucking threaten us again.

So, in other words, destroy everything with no regards to human rights or logic, and add in a nice touch of expenses.


I'm saying destroy theats to our nation thoroughly. Fuck them, and fuck their rights. Make them an example out of them so others won't be so quick to attack us.

Yeah, I actually did thinking that the instant I read he was dead. There most certainly will be another attack, but at least the head of the organization is gone.

I have a question for you:
Why didn't we just assassinate him immediately? Why didn't we set up a network to kill him as soon as he was involved in violence against the US back in 1998?
