    Well, it would have been more believable if they had produced a body.

    You have said this a number of times. Where is the proof. I Osama was riding a unicorn when the SEALs killed him, and I can offer as much evidence to support my assertion as you can for yours.

    I'm not having a discussion with Obama, but with you, amigo. Either you can back up your claims or you can't. I'm prepared to back up any claim I make. The president offers the eyewitness testimony of two dozen SEAL commandos, another who-knows-how-many aboard the aircraft carrier, plus the real-time monitoring group in the White House situation room. They have photographic and DNA evidence good enough satisfy the FBI.

    Why do you deny this? What else can he do except send a sub to pick upbin ladens corpse and bring him to you? What possible motive does Obama have to lie? If bin Laden is alive, all he will have to do is turn up somewhere to shame Obama. Obama doesn't seem to be worried much about that. What possible motive would a couple of hundred eye witnesses have to get involved in a conspiracy.

    Sure. Any time.

    But which was, in fact, sovereign territory of a nuclear power.

    Look, Iran threatens Israel, it is a fact. It doesn't mean that Iran is any credible danger to Israel. The fact that Egypt attacked a nuclear-armed Israel is absolutely relevant to Iran attacking Israel.

    The War on Terror is misnamed and often misguided but it is not an excuse for a "US/Western aggression in the middle east". We have been actively involved in the middle east since before WWII and the British for a hundred years before that. It has nothing to do with the "war on terror". It is pure international geopolitics. Nations pursuing their own vital national interests.

    No, they had a nuclear ally. But so did Israel. It was a wash as far as nuclear deterrence by proxy.

    But the fact is that Israel had nuclear weapons, Egypt did not and Egypt attacked Israel.

    The Commander in Chief isn't going to go on national television to announce to the world the death of Bin Laden if it isn't true. On top of that all of the things he's had to say on the subject since then. Take it to the bank, the motherphucker is dead. I hope they at least tied some cinder blocks to his phucking legs before they dumped his body overboard.

    i really dont like that the u.s. is not being given access to the prisoners taken by pakistan after the attack on bin ladens compound.

    Bin Laden's wife spent 6 years in Pakistani house - Yahoo! News

    i just do not trust the pakistanis to tell us what we need to caputre obl top followers, or worse yet, help us prevent more attacks on the u.s. or our interests.


    i also find it amazing that obl was in that house for 6 years. and the pakistani army didnt know? yeah, right.

    back to the women in these countries being nothing more than chattel.

    The Real Housewife of Abbottabad: What bin Laden's Spouse Knows - Yahoo! News


    so she is 24 now. which 11 years ago would have made her 13 when she was married to obl. that is disgusting, and goes back to females being nothing more than chattel to their father's and husbands.

    and i have the feeling the pakistani's are not gonna tell us everything she tells. because you have to believe she knows if they were protecting obl. i dont care about "international outcry". the one mistake made was not hauling her ass out of there along with documents and hard drives as a source of information.

    I'll have to list the various statements from gov't officials, intelligence specialists at another time. It's a pointless exercise, though. That's why it is so important to produce a body....
