BREAKING NEWS:Bin Laden dead: awaiting response from president.

[Entei Slider]

I see on the news right now (hopefully this isn't some cruel trick) They are saying Usama (Osama w/e) Bin Laden. Has infact been killed, they are waiting for the president to respond. thoughts?

Edit:It has been confirmed, Bin laden is dead and they have his body.

Spoiler: unimportant fact

The news caster I'm watching is like really excited

Wonderful, now there's yet another excuse to drag on a war that shouldn't have been started.

Actually jack, this war needed to happen, this war was the afghanistan war brought on by the 9/11 attacks. Which Usama (osama) played a part in.
They attacked us, we attacked them.

Wouldn't killing the problem bring us closer to an end?

So, let me get this straight. We needed to invade an entire goddamn country, ravaging their economy/infrastructure, so we can attack the Taliban. And we've got what to show for it? Osama dead, a crapload of US troops dead, and about half the entire Muslim community opposed to the United States because we feel the need to stick our nose into everyone else's business and play international policemen.

Real necessary. Plenty of other countries have fallen victim to terrorist attacks, and you don't see them starting wars.

Osama's not the entire "problem." The Taliban still exists, regardless of efforts, and now Osama's death will almost certainly be used as a sort "LOOK. THE WAR ON TERROR IS WORKING" prop, when it undoubtedly isn't.

I know part of, not the whole. Okay.

Good point. So, this was in 1 way a plus!

 

[Psychonaut]

First usama, now obama:

holy **** how did i not catch this

lol

also, @ this in general, i immediately thought this is/was a hoax. when i first saw the head line "osama (obama) bin", i actually thought, without knowing he was dead, that he might have already died and left some brilliant scheme to live on past his death, ex: actors, falsified death, etc.

if they truly, 100% for certain caught osama bin laden, awesome.
BUT WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT OBAMA BIN LADEN HOLY ****

and i thought exactly what jack said, this is either going to end it somehow, or completely destroy any chance of ending it.
and the whole part about way way way way way too many US troops dying, and too much of US' dick in everyone's ear.

if the taliban has enough resources to make one more attack, they will, no doubt. (provided he actually died) and i still don't quite believe that he was killed/found.. i'm not sure why. just a feeling.

edit: LOLOLOLOLOL

Afghanistan, nor the Taliban, ever attacked us.

 

[Jake]

Jas0n, you make this thread worth while.

 

[AndyB]

Hey, atleast this will get rid of the royal wedding ****.

Okay, we get it. You didn't approve of the wedding, get passed it already.

 

[Jas0n]

Okay, we get it. You didn't approve of the wedding, get passed it already.

I'd love to know what I've suddenly done to make you angrily comment on almost every one of my posts.

First off, to everyone STILL saying this is a "war", it has never been a war. Congress never declared war on the Middle East. An example of a declared war is WWII

Do not confuse A) the United States of America joining a war begun by Al Queida with B) Bush/Cheney starting an unrelated second war in Iraq based on false pretense.
