So Bin Laden is Dead, what now?

[Tdc2182]

As if he ever mattered.

Yup.

He's been a figure head for the past 5 years. He has had barely anything to do with the Al Queada. He's just been running away

Update: The fans in Philadelphia are chanting "USA! USA! USA!"

So cliche...

It's not like terrorism is over now.

I'm in Philly, too. And the bar down the street just got really loud.

>_>

And no, terrorism isn't over.

But still, we killed the guy eluding us for almost 10 years. I mean, it's like achieving a goal in life you've been striving for. There is reason to celebrate. BUT NOT AT FUCKING 11:00 PM ON SUNDAY NIGHT!

SOME PEOPLE GOTTA GET UP EARLY.

Yeah, you're right. Overt shows of patriotism just still weird me out. After 9/11, that kind of patriotism seemed to signal to everyone around here (in the South) that racism was back in vogue. People were ridiculous. It's probably wrong of me to think that way, but it just makes me uncomfortable and cynical.

Racism should never be back in style. >_>

Well, except with those eskimos. Fuck you, eskimos.

Yeah, 9/11 isn't a time of SEGREGATION, those idiots...It was a time of UNITY. The fact that 9/11 did anything but bring people together weirds me out, too.

Hell yes he is! Been watching Fox with my mom for.a hour now. Literally 5 minutes before we got the news Geraldo said "what if its Bin Laden?" We doubted it. But its true!

 

[Krythe]

I'm normally not incredibly patriotic, but in this instance:

AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!

FOX news must be thinking, Who will we use to fearmonger now?!?!?!?!

Just saw the news, Bin Laden is dead, check any news channel, its true. So, what now, will the US pull out? or what?

We do what we do best, celebrate.

first...
that needs to be the National Anthem

and two...
America (and the world) needs to know who was the soldier that shot Osama

here you go:

One wonders if it'll actually make a clod of difference. Yes, he is (was?) their leader; Do you think that his dying will really stop terrorism? Do you think conflict in the Middle East is just going to vanish overnight?

No, not really. This is a boost to morale and perhaps a minor disruption of their operations - I have no doubt that they have a line-up of second-in-commands who are just waiting to take his place. Then... what? We spend another decade trying to destroy his replacement?

You're right. We should just not try and ignore every terrorist attack.

You people confuse the hell out of me.

 

[Optional Opinion]

who?

The leader behind Al Qaeda, the terrorist organization who suicide crashed planes into the Twin Towers in New York on 9/11 killing thousands of people, causing us to invade Iraq blah blah blah basically satan.

Captcha: Kreller aronlyi

I believe "9/11" caused you to invade Afghanistan not Iraq.

Now, nothing. Your talking about terrorists, and stupid ones at that. This will just give them a martyr to fight for and if anything will just extend the war.

You don't think this lifts morale, or you don't think morale is important?

It gives the enemy a martyr to fight for, the oposition is just going to get stronger. Trust American troops to be stupid and just shoot the guy, rather than do the smart thing and bring him back for trial. Alive he's valuable, dead hes a martyr.

 

[Krion_Vark]

Don't have a TV and not familiar with much US news.
Someone give me the skinny on this? Did they find a body, or was this a claim from his country?

If you already got the answer you were looking for just ignore this.

US ground troops in Pakistan and a Drone in the sky killed Bin Laden just over the border in Pakistan. DNA and Dental Records confirm it was him.

 

[Tdc2182]

As if he ever mattered.

Yup.

He's been a figure head for the past 5 years. He has had barely anything to do with the Taliban. He's just been running away

You don't think this lifts morale, or you don't think morale is important?

Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty damn ecstatic he's dead, but this really does nothing to the war.

Also, to all you nay sayers.

Just let us have this one. America's kinda had their image soiled for the past few years, it's time we get a little boost.

CNN said it was a human operation, not a drone.

You're watching FOX news? Do they have Osamas name misspelled on the bottom of the screen, or is this just a Chicago feed I'm seeing with the idiotic typo for the last 30 minutes?

lol nope we got a USAMA Bin Laden dead here in Vermont
Fox news can never get it right

The announcement is Obama's 1337-th Tweet

I see 1336 from your link.... but I don't see one addressing this.... OMG that is just a random thing that has no merit... r, uhm, I mean, it's just a tad crazy!?

OK I can't tell if you're serious or not... 1337 , like 'Leet' in gamerspeak! Just thought it was funny

In other news, Bin Laden was camping in the middle cave on Afghan with Cold Blooded Pro and UAV Jammer, and had put his location on his PSN account.

We can't pull out, there is a war to finish. But now Obama has a reelection guarantee, Al Qieda has lost its symbol, and New York is alot happier.

Obama re-election in the bag? As if he did anything about Osama. Honestly, getting Bin Ladin by know had probably faded from the public's eye due to the recent shitstorm of Libya and the economy. I sincerely doubt he is going to get reelected.
