They finally got him!

[PAH]

SKY woman asked if they waited till after the Royal wedding to do this operation. Seriously, WTF.

Agree the yanks wouldn't wait if their operation clashed, but it may be the reason why the honeymoon has been postponed.

Especially if it was supposed to be in a country with a high number of brainwashed islamic extremists such as England.

Osama bin Laden dead: followers warn of 'another 7/7' - Telegraph

Choudary, who acts as spokesman for the extremist Muslims Against Crusades group, said: “I think Britain is more likely to face a 7/7 today than ever.

I would have thought that we are most likely to face a 7/7 shortly after 6/7?

Prior to this event, one mooted destination was as guests of the Jordanian Royal Family.

I'm certain that the Americans will be thoroughly thrilled, however the nett effect on the world situation will take a while and no-one knows what it will be.

I'm sure there will be a lot of rhetoric and noise from both sides for ages.

I do wonder what the kill ratio was...

500,000 != a dead Bin Laden

Let us remember that we can do these things not just because of wealth or power, but because of who we are: one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Thank you. May God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America.

So that settles it then. The American God trumps the Islamic God.

Unconfirmed conspiracy theories are saying that he's been buried at sea already.

Sounds a bit fishy to me

I don't fancy work tomorrow, was just getting used to this Easter break. One more day off, say OBL commemoration day? for e.g. would be a blast.

he probably is the most expensive hit in the world. how many billions spent in the wrong country chasing a man most pundits assumed was in Pakistan.

Big question now is...how many years did Musharraf ( or his military generals) know where he was?

But this does prove the US strategy on Afghanistan was wrong from the outset. A clandestine operation I reckon would have got him years sooner...and not have created all the issues the Brute force and Ignorance method has.

[TykeMerc]

Ah, but brute force and ignorance is an ancient form of international relations, sabre rattling has been very popular for centuries if not millennia with large military powers.
