Osama bin Laden is dead

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

If Osama is not dead, all he has to do is make another video. Not only would that destroy Brack Obama's politcal career and image but the consequences for the whole of the USA would be disastrous on a scale never seen before.

Even if they did realse a picture of his corpse, it wont stop nutters like Alex Jones and other paranoid Conspiracy theorist from claiming its fake. Not to mention news channels like Russia Today showing crap news items on the suppose lie of Osama Bin Laden.

Bin Laden 'unarmed' when shot

To be fair if I was a soldier and had the chance to shoot him between the eyes, armed or not, I would.

You being Chelsea's George Galloway won't like that, but I would!

Haha fair enough, I can understand why mate.

Bin Laden's death will cause a chain reaction of threats from al-Qaeda, and will put his 'image' as a matyr. No matter who is killed, or captured, there will always been another fanatic with similiar views that will step up to take over. From what i have read, bin Laden wasn't the 'brains' of the organistaion anyway.

[Henrique 9,133]

Bit of perspective needed I feel

Bin Laden and Al Qaeda are a product of US foregn policy.

The US corporations and government spend more on weapons than every country in the world combined.

Since World War 2 the US has intervened in over 200 foreign countries supporting right wing death squads and despots, and been involved in 20 wars killing over 9 million people. This makes Bin Laden look like a choirboy.

Just one example would be the sanctions on Iraq when it laid claim to Kuwait (which does belong to Iraq but the British drew a straight line in the sand in the 1920s to create this artificial country). Anyway, the sanctions on Iraq killed ovre 600 000 children and babies under 5 years old. Madeleine Albright, the US secretary of State at the time said ''It was a price worth paying.'' The US now own 80% of the oil wells in Kuwait and Iraq.

It is no wonder that through the millions it has slaughtered that you get people like Osama Bin Laden fighting back.

So you can say that Hitler was a product of UK and France because of the sanctions that were imposed to Germany after the Great War...

Bin Laden is a product of the human ignorance and of the religious extremism, any kind of extremism is bad, but religious extremism is really bad. The world would be a better place when guys like Bin Laden vanish forever.

"I will mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy."

I don't know about you guys. But in this lifetime, I've seen enough death. Be it Gadaffi's son, Bin Laden, Saddam Hussien. Enough. Justice does not equal death.

This.

Agree with this.

Think there is a number 2, an Egyptian Doctor I believe, Ayman al-Zawahiri

He was meant to be bin Laden's mentor and pushed for him to cause many bombings.

[Ollie 4,400]

Anybody in this world who sets his sights on killing people, destroying families and wrecking peoples lives deserves death, end of story. He was the founder and leader of Al Qaeda, Al Qaeda are a terrorist organisation.... He's responsible for the attacks on the USA in 2011 and he deserves not just death.... but the most excruciating, painful, torturous fucking death thats ever graced a human fucking soul.

At the end of the day, he's dead and that's a good thing. The USA has to be very vigilant now because there will be a lot of angry members of this piece of shit group wanting retribution for their leader but at the end of the day, Bin Laden is dead and good thing too.

He's a sick man and anyone who believes he doesn't deserve death are even sicker.

Sorry your Hitler comparison doesnt make the slightest bit of sense, complete window licking .

Look -if the USA bombs and invades countries killing 9 million people since World War 2 , i'm sorry there will be people who fight back. yes we get the 3 thousand killed in the World Trade Centre rammed down our throats all the time by our media, but to Muslims the tens of thousands killed by the US and US sponsored Israel is what matters to them.

You need to try and put yourself in their shoes/sandals.

Exactly.

George Bush & Tony Blair are just as bad as Bin Laden. If not, worse. They've started 2 illegal wars, killing millions of innocent people, stood by and watch a whole nation get wiped out (Palestine) and then have the nerve to claim Bin Laden is the world's most dangerous man.

I can't believe no-one asking for their arrest warrants. People sit back and cheer the death of Bin Laden while allowing those 2 monsters to get away with cold murder. Speaking of cold murder, I find it sickening how Gaddafi's son was killing in an airstrike, in cold blood, after they imposed a "no-fly zone" themselves.

Yes they demonise and create bogey men all through their history -be it Noriega, Saddam, Ghaddafi, -all the while invading and stealing the natural resources of South American and Middle eastern countries. Blair is a complete war criminal , and would have been a liability had he been invited to that wedding as loads would have turned up to demonstrate. Bush I've discovered just like Obama and other US presidents are puppets of the Oil and Weapons Corporation lobbyists, whose intrest it is to create war

Precisely. We all remember the failure of a plan that was Food for Oil in Iraq a few years ago.

The Arab Spring is the perfect opportunity for US & UK to get their hands on some more Arab oil companies. Just like they did in South America, they're trying to hide there real agenda from the world, except this time, more people are awakened to the real reasons for American presence there. We need more Hugo Chavez-types. More leaders that will stand up to US tyranny and tell them to f*ck off when they try to come for the oil.

I'm 100% confident that they're currently trying to spark a similar revolution in Saudi Arabia. God help the world if the Saudi's do kick off.. We may just see WW3.

Wtf? Chavez is an idiot.

US tyranny? Look man I told you once. If the USA and European forces interferred in the Balkans before they had things wouldn't go that far.

That happened less than 20 years ago.

As soon as hit had calmed down in Tahrir Square, and Mabarrak had gone, but the military were in charge, Cameron was over there. and he sold more weapons in that visit than had been sold in the last 10 years to the Egyptian government. This shows what theyre all about.

Not so sure about Saudi Arabia -yes thats the biggie if it went tits up. But the Saudi Royal family are very compliant with the West and the US would like to keep the stability of that draconian regime. They buy literally billions of dollars worth of weapons and torture equipment from the US and UK and they in return readily supply cheap oil. This was why Bin Laden hated his countrys rulers, and lets not forget the twin towers hijackers were all Saudi.

[Henrique 9,133]

I Agree tha USA is not the good guys they think they are.

But Bin Laden was an extremist muslim. All extremists muslims must vanish.

Osama wasnt fight for freedom and against american tyrany, he was fighting for his own religious tyrany.

The fact that Bush and lot of americans are idiots and bastards doesnt mean Osama is a heroe in the war against American Empire. He was a mass killer and deserved that bullet in his head.

No-one said Osama is a hero.

We're (well, I'm..) simply saying, a] Bush is just as bad & b] I think he should've been thrown in jail.

I don't know what you mean by the Balkans thing, please elaborate..

But you can't deny the USA's interference in South America making the social divide worse than ever. They were solely responsible for causing hyper inflation in the entire continent when they over threw each country's leaders and replaced them with their own puppet leaders. This made them plutocracies, keeping the rich - rich & poor even poorer. While still robbing them of their natural resources i.e. Oil.

When I say Hugo Chavez-type leaders. I mean leaders who will stand up for the poor and kick out American interference in their countries. Since Chavez has been in power the poverty gap has reduced enormously! The poverty line has shrunk and the state provides education, medical aid ect. I have heard of Chaez's oppression of opponents so I obviously don't support the man himself, but, I do respect his policies.

It wasn't just the Spanish speaking countries they ruined, look at their treatment of Cuba! It's no wonder people like Che Guevara & Fidel Castro are considered hero in those parts, because once the USA were gone.. Things did improve!
