You can't win for losing on this one. You could disrespect his culture and keep him alive but then have to deal with the backlash of Islamic groups!

Or you attempt to respect him as a Muslim and get suspicious doubters such as yourself.

So, there is no correct way to go about it.

Parading his body wouldn't have done any harm. Considering.

You'll see them in time with the way the media works nowadays.

Someone is going to leak the photos that the Navy SEALs have taken.

There was a DNA test, fingerprint match, dental match and one other thing

Well I'm not gonna read all 24 pages of this thread but I read over the past few.

All I can say is I am glad he was murdered. It sucks it took a decade to do it, but I'm glad at least there is some sort of closure for families involved now that one of the head masterminds behind Al Quaeda and terrorist attacks is dead. I am going to celebrate his death and I had pretty much thought that we would never murder him, so I was pretty surprised to hear the news. I was watching the Mets game last night and the stadium started a "USA" chant when people started finding out on their phones, which was pretty cool.

Bin laden and all of Al Quaeda are huge piece of shit and I hope they are all brutally murdered.

The buried at sea thing strikes me as really odd. In Obama I can see all the old democrats of the 20th century. He's been FDR in Libya, Truman in Afghanistan, Kennedy in Iraq, Clinton on business, Carter on energy...but with this buried at sea thing, and I hope to god we've got conclusive photos (like Spec. Force carrying him off) I'm afraid he's looking more and more like Johnson.

According to the Brits: http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/to...buried-at-sea/

I like the idea, but its still too conspiratorial. It seems like Obama's style. No flash or grandeur but with the loony's and their theories abound...you'd think we'd have handled this differently.

Am I the only one that thinks that this doesn't close the chapter on 9/11 just yet?

I'm not advocating for invading countries or anything, but for me they still have to build something on top of Ground Zero. That would 100% close the 9/11 saga for me.

F*CK dude im happy he is dead!! he had no reason to live other than plotting death threats against americans and anyone else who he thought he could kill brutally

No, they need to rebuild that area for us to close a chapter.

What I was trying to convey last night, and what I think a great deal of people are missing is this: it might be artificial in the scheme of things, but this is an end cap to the intervention.

A talk show host I listen to said the Brit's did a masterful job in "declaring victory and going home." Everyone knew no one had won anything, but you need to get out at some point. For the U.S. to leave now (soon) is far easier to swallow. we can talk politics and election cycles and be cynical little bitches with no real grip on how reality works. Or we can agree that when you're attacked you have to do something if you don't want to be attacked again.

This will make the drawback much easier. And the politics are there also. We've got an end cap, Obama can say he's a peace maker and a budget buster (like Nixon in '72). The war draws down and the troops come home. revolutions across the middle east are lending themselves to a more peaceable region. Like the Anarchist in the 1890's, they'll try to kill and murder more, thats a certainty. But like the French Proletariat then, the people in the Middle East don't want murder or the death of America, they want democracy and a better economy. (The french wanted the 8-hour work day).

History repeats itself. Not exactly but close enough. The ramification of killing Bin Laden will be huge. Not direct, but there will be chain effects that will appease Independent voters as well as the Liberal Doves of the Left. Is that chapter closed? No. But its closing. And the left can go ape **** because he used the phrase "God." But saying that doesn't channel Priests raping children, and Abortion Center Bombings for everyone who hears it. This is a monumental occasion for the globe, and the political winds have shifted to allow for troop draw down. Leaving Afghanistan was already on the table in what, 5 months? Now theres even more of a reason.

its so easy to be a jaded **** on these issues. Its why I try to stay away from emotional politics. There is a truth and there is a feeling and its best to stay on the "truth" side of the fence. Al' Qaeda was not just an enemy to us. They were a global terrorist organization and they murdered their own people. To see this *******, who's been bombing us since 1993 killed is not reason to celebrate, but it does mean the coming of many good things. And that is a reason to celebrate.
