Man you guys are naive and have very short memories . . .
You assume the following is "Conspiracy Theory," whatever that means and has come to mean. Conspiracies do indeed happen. People do conspire together to do wrong, unethical, and illegal acts. Man's History is filled with doing so.
Tell me where I'm wrong?
OBL was CIA during the Afghan/Soviet war. He was our asset. WE supported him. FACT.
The evidence shows that the CIA was instrumental in beginning "The Base" Al Qaeda (aka Al-CIA-Duh). See the sources I posted before including the BBC broadcast called, The Power of Nightmares.
We do not know that OBL was the mastermind behind 9-11-01. It was never thoroughly investigated. The 9-11 Commission Report was a sham. Even members on the commission now say so. They were not told everything. How did OBL get the US military on 9-11-01 to stand down? How does someone in a cave have that kind of influence? FACT. I can go on and on. There are more holes (and bull-dung) in the Official 9-11 Commission Report than Swiss cheese . . .
The FBI did not have OBL on their own Most Wanted list. Why? Because there was no evidence connecting OBL to 9-11. FACT.
After 9-11-01 within days, the Bin Laden family within the US, there were many of them, were allowed to safely fly out of the US before the restriction to fly for everyone else was entirely lifted. FACT. Why is that?
We never intended to capture OBL. And if we did, we would kill him. We never wanted to capture him alive and bring him to trial. Our very own boogeyman knows too many secrets. FACT.
U.S. team's mission was to kill bin Laden, not capture
WASHINGTON | Mon May 2, 2011 8:24am EDT
(Reuters) - The U.S. special forces team that hunted down Osama bin Laden was under orders to kill the al Qaeda mastermind, not capture him, a U.S. national security official told Reuters.
"This was a kill operation," the official said, making clear there was no desire to try to capture bin Laden alive in Pakistan.

Man you guys are gullible.
And GOD doesn't cheer when someone loses their life, their soul, and they are lost forever. He cries and the Angels with him.
Any Christian who cheers at the death of another human being is clue-less. Even Jesus grieved for Judas who betrayed him.

Mr Sawyer,
I'm sorry to hear about your sister. That's rough, especially for the young man. It's good to see the uncles stepping up to take care of him, and you and your gal tying the knot. He could use an aunt right now.

"Pat
Your an idiot
Just off the top of my head, weapons of mass destruction? Clinton and Lewinsky?
You compare these two things
500,000 dead for oil and a lie
compared to a blow job, that was supposed to be a secret, and should of remained a secret!!
The Repubs can only function on lies
The Dems expose the lies"
I'm not talking about the gravity of the lie (I don't disagree with that), I am talking about politicians lying period, pretty common stuff across party lines. Dr. F, you're a f*#king retard if you think only one party has a monopoly on the truth.
-Patrick

For all those saying this was a bad thing, what should have we done?
Should we have had the US marshalls issue a warrent or serve him papers and hope he shows up in court. I for one am happy and hopoe that this helps bring this conflict to an end. The college I work at just had a ceremony where we honored quite a few of our students who are being deployed to Afaganastan with the National Guard. Several of them have gotten to be very good friends of mine and I bet they are beaming with pride today over this news. America did not ask to start this and this seems to be one thing we have accomplished in this war.
Do you all think that his killing would have been taken better by his followers if we weren't dancing in the streets.

Dropping the corpse in the ocean, and so more or less conforming with Muslim burial traditions, was likely the best solution. Keeping the body in cold storage, or burying it in a known location, would just create problems. There is big tradition in Islam of pilgrimages to graves.
One assumes that they kept all possible evidence from the body - autopsy, tissue samples, photographs, and so on. Plus whatever corroborating evidence or witnesses that could be found. The backstory may be interesting, as slowly comes out.

Two news sevices say Saudi Arabia would not accept Bin Laden's cadaver. (?)
U.S. leaders wanted him buried the same day
so as to not trespass Islamic law.

One more thing I would like to say . . .
Obama is the best Republican President that we have ever had, with the exception of Eisenhower perhaps.
Obama is a shoe-in for 2012.
He played his "Trump" card early.
lol.

Good Question...

"Look at your first question to me.
How insulting...
Your a hypocrite, but that is nothing new. "
I looked.
I thought it was a reasonable question, as was the second.
Show me my hypocrisy.
I can understand whacking him- it is the dancing in the streets, the celebratory of death masked in "justice" that rubs me the wrong way.
I felt the same when this was done to us by many in the MS and elsewhere.
If that is hypocrisy then I guess I'm okay with that.
It sounds more to me like revenge for you. If that is the case than call it that.
Sorry if you disagree with me on this.
"...any false religion"
Ahh-that is enlightening.
Cheers,
DD

This morning on the Diane Rehm show there was an excellent dicussion on this topic. I think you can listen to on the web.
The CIA has know that bin Laden Osama was at this compound long enough for them to build a mockup of the buildings at the Navy Seals base in Afganistan. The Seals practiced various attacks depending on the number of people who were protecting bin Laden. President Obama gave the order last friday.
These were the guests:
John McLaughlin former acting director of the CIA and now senior fellow at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies.
Yochi Dreazen senior national security correspondent, National Journal magazine.
Paul Pillar director, graduate studies at the Center for Peace and Security Studies at Georgetown University and a former CIA National Intelligence officer
Ahmed Rashid Pakistani journalist and author. A second edition of his book "Taliban: Militant Islam, Oil and Fundamentalism in Central Asia " has just been published. His other books include “Descent into Chaos” and “Jihad.”
