Osama Bin Laden Celebrations labelled "Disguisting"

]The fact you call him a human being is an insult to every single person alive today.

He was a human being by definition.

No, I won't 'f*ck off' just because you told me to.

I thought we were more civilized now, and don't follow the rule of 'An eye for an eye' any more. I believe revenge is a thing of the past.

It's not "eye for an eye" it's "eye for thousands of eyes"

And what about the tens of thousands of people that were killed by the United States direct actions overseas? Or the hundreds of thousands that were killed by indirect actions of the United States? How about all the U.S. soldiers that died durin the two conflicts in the Middle East? At what point do people stop with the idiotic idea of an eye for an eye?

On topic, I agree that the celebrations are in fact disgustin. Was the man a sick, deplorable human being that was nothin more than a waste of space? Yes. Did he directly and indirectly cause the deaths of who knows how many innocent people? Yes. None of that means that people should celebrate the death of a human being.

The fact you call him a human being is an insult to every single person alive today.

The idea that you have the right to casually consider a person to not be human is more of an insult to every single person alive and dead.

Disgusting? I hope someone from the CIA pays Kuranda Seyit a visit.

Any American who isn't celebrating should be lynched as traitor or deported.

A human doesn't order people to take over a plane and crash them into buildings full of innocents. No that is something only a monster will do and a monster deserves no pity or respect only annihilation.

 

[Doctor Glocktor]

A Muslim saying saying that its wrong for people to celebrate the death of a Muslim Extremist?

Yikes. Bad move.

In only the most base sense. Personally I wish we went Vlad the Impaler on his ass and stuck a pole up there and posed that body in front of the white house instead of dumping him at sea. Let that image sink nice and deep for the persona that fills the vacuum left by Osama.

Asking Americans to be more "reserved" is like yelling at a boulder for not moving enough.

Tbh, I was kind of embarrassed at all the morons partying in the street and chanting USA and stuff, but then I got over it. Yeah it's stupid and somewhat disgraceful, but who really gives a shit. Oh noes, we are pissing off Al Qaeda. Pretty sure we can't really make that relationship any worse than it already is!

Basically everything in the world is a giant clusterfuck right now. Everyone just needed something to cheer about and forget their normal woes. This was it.

Celebrating in the streets after Hiroshima was the celebration of the death of hundreds of thousands of innocent people. Training Afghan civilians to murder anything resembling a communist seems awfully dark and misguided... I guess we're all a little more monstrous than we thought.

I don't care if people want to give into their base instincts and act the fool, or just want to fit in. Lets just call it what it is and not try and justify it. People are always worse when looking in from the outside. Ignorance is a disease, face the facts. George W. Bush should have been tried as a war criminal but people just don't care. Someday soon we'll have to face it that on this small planet called Earth maybe everything hits a little close to home.

Not totally disagreeing with you here but I do wish to clarify that the US mainly gave Afghan rebels weapons to fight against the invasion. The CIA did do some training of rebels, but not in the connotation you put it in. It was their diligence that stopped the Russians... with our weapons. Then some of them, in turn, became the Taliban. In the end, it wasn't dark and misguided, but merely... opportunistic.

It's good ol' fashioned shadenfreude.

It's what makes us human.

..no, that's what makes us animals. Difference.

 

[Firetaffer]

I wish hell existed so bin Laden could burn in it.

No one deservers to burn in hell, if such a place is in existence. You're not just there for a lifetime, you are there forever, No one can do anything of such unjust magnitude to be 'sent to hell to burn for eternity.'

And what about the tens of thousands of people that were killed by the United States direct actions overseas? Or the hundreds of thousands that were killed by indirect actions of the United States?

I agree with this.

Celebrating the deaths of thousands of innocents is not the same as celebrating the death of one mass murderer. End of fucking story.

Hey, whatever makes you feel good about yourself. I'm sure Osama himself had a very similar mindset.

Because we all know Osama only killed one or two people ever. Right?

Celebrating the deaths of thousands of innocents is not the same as celebrating the death of one mass murderer. End of fucking story.

Riiiiiiiiight, 'cause the US only killed that one guy during this whole affair...

Implying we celebrated in killing everyone except Osama? Uh no.

 

[nipsen]

We are not supose to celebrate the death of our enemies? That's news to me.

..did you pull the trigger? Was it a good fight? Did you test yourself, or learn something about your enemy? Did you learn to respect them in the process?

If not - what do you have to celebrate? That you're born in a country that spends more money on the military than science, schools or the public sector combined?

... In history today we watched a video on the Atomic bomb.

With the deaths of countless innocents in Japan, the USA partied like it was the end of the world because they had defeated the enemy. Everyone celebrates not because of the death of the enemy. They celebrate because they made a victory...

I understand what the Islam leader is saying because he is stating simply that those who celebrate death are disgusting, which is understandable because I personally found the footage of the partying while countless Japanese laid there dying horrible back at the end of 1940.

Though this is different. I mean Osama Bin Laden was the horrible man and the fact that he is dead is good, and it is a victory which is why people are celebrating, but you can understand why some people would be offended because they may not understand that.

Like the Mosque reader said at a Muslim Service I attended said, "The key to world peace is respect for peoples different opinions" and yes we should celebrate, but we should understand and respect that some might think us cruel for enjoying death.

These people who will be pissed at us celebrating the death of this man are pissed at us already, hell I don't think they can get any madder. These people do not respect our ways and don't care if we respect theirs so frankly they can go die in a fire. What we have is the death of a man that would have wanted every single person in the western world dead and if he had the means would have done so yesterday. The fact that there are people in the western world not only not celebrating but actually violently against such displays astounds me. Seriously how did you people react to the end of Harry Potter?

I am not saying that we shouldn't celebrate his death, I mean he was a evil man, what I'm saying is that personally I can actually agree with that man that you shouldn't celebrate any persons death in such a way because it's wrong. This mostly due to the fact that I just recently watched a video where people celebrated the death of countless people because they were the enemy. In fact I'm still traumatized that there is actually a photo of a women holding a skull and it the caption explains how it was a present from her soldier boyfriend of his first Japanese kill and how happy she was about it.

That and the whole respect for different opinions thing I mentioned works both ways. We need to respect them and only if they respect us back can it happen. Though considering how most fanatics in religious beliefs act, that won't happen.

Yes I find the parties sick and wrong. You don't celebrate somebody dying its just morally wrong which for the United States (I live there) isn't a shocker.

yay someone agrees. Course I think it will be hard to convince anyone really considering America's past with their response to victory.
