Osama Bin Laden is dead?

[anisa]

anyhoo, glad that some part of the story can be closed.
life will never go back to what it was pre 9/11. i will still get scrutinized with a little extra 'screw' at the airports ;p

Even if the man is dead, he had an army of followers... someone's bound to step up and try and carry out his leader's legacy which means none of us are any better off. It's really sad the conspiracy theories that have started and will continue because of that man.

In the words of Martin Luther King Jr. " i mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but i will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that."

do they (the media) even have physical proof that he is in fact dead? His body was apparently buried at sea, so it's not like the public really has any physical proof that he's dead, just Obama's reassurance. Y'know what I mean?

How the heck do you burry someone at sea !

I have consipacy theory facebook posts on mine. One girl saying that Hitler was killed on May 1st and now Bin and how its all gods plan.

I thought Hitler killed himself April 30th... and they are ahead in the middle east so wasn't it May 2nd 2011?

Someone (Obama?) Said they found him a week ago, but now released the info that it was really him, so that they could use DNA or something.

Hitler wasn't killed, he killed himself. some people need to break out their history books ! Glad it's only my cousin going a little crazy and not my entire friends list , i'd shut my FB down

toss them overboard.


well i'm guessing that in the past 10yrs since this happened , his network is much bigger so i don't think this is over just because he is dead.

I agree, let me see a Body, then I'll believe it

[FallenPixels]

They said they have footage of the body but it is not rated for TV (they shot him in the head) but apart from whatever they took for DNA analysis, the body is gone, although they say they will release the video of the 'burial' and possibly photos of his body

Hamas condenmed the US over this and called on God to watch over Osama's soul. ( According to the translation I found)

[gryphon]

for those who believe in the Day of Judgement, this shouldn't be worth worrying about

[anisa]

I wonder if those who are condemning it are simply condemning the kill. i doubt anyone would have condemned capture and trial.

[curt81]

Glad that he was killed but the war on terror is far from over.

From what I understand, for most it is more the way he was killed than anything rlse - many are upset that he was not buried properly and his family not shown his body to 'know' etc and then others just will use any excuse for their hatred of the west

This may have to be shifted onto the debate forum. I see this heating up quickly !
