Osama Bin Laden is dead

no they are not unique, Neither is my aunts or my friends who I have been in contact with.


elation, and rejoicing, are far to strong. I am happy that mothervucker is dead, but closure? "rejoicing" "elation"? hardley, these folks are still dead.... America, **** yeah!


But lets put it in perspective.

I kind of agree with you. I was much more excited last night, but we're still in Afghanistan and people are still going to die. At the same time, this doesn't bring back the people who died on 9/11 or all the members of the military who have already died in the conflict. It's sort of a strange feeling to the see the symbol of it all die while remembering everything he created.

No i was asking, i didn't think that, but i was hoping you could also refute that you hate the West religiously.



I also acknowledge our role in this, only the regimes where propped up to maintain regional stability, to maintain the fight against terrorism and Iran, NOT to kill and maim innocent civilians. We are in Libya making amends and being falsely accused of nefarious agenda's to keep the vile anti-West rhetoric alive by any means.

It really is boring. That brings me back to my point. Damned if we leave you to the slaughter, damned if we dont. Its called anti-Western hypocrisy.

No, Obama got us into Libya to help al qeada.

But the Mayor just LOVE the way the Lefties are complaining whenever a bomb or missile comes somewhat close to Ghadaffy.

It certainly reminds the Mayor of the scene in the Patriot where Cornwallis is whining about Gibson's nasssssty habit of shooting officers first.

As one who has seen horrible things happen to bad and good people in my life, I can tell you the "elation" won't last. It's good to have the emotional release, but it will rebound in a few days. yes, both feelings are valid, however, only one is being propped up by mainstream media, and that pisses me off a bit.


I'm happy the ****er is dead, They should have buried his ass in a pig carcuss facing south at the foot of the "freedom tower", I am also contemplative as to the meaning of this death, and what it means in the bigger picture of my loss. Elation, rejoicing, to me is not accurate.

I see your point. I'm not validating Iraq...though I'm glad Saddam and his sons are gone. Wish Bush I or Clinton would have done it, but I'm glad it was done. I don't think we ever should have occupied the country to do it, nor do I think we should have used some psuedo-pretense to get over there.

Memory is selective. Nobody took Osama seriously until the 9/11 attacks. Then, many simply discard the other 7 attacks over 7 years that had been facilitated by Osama under Clinton's watch, but had been left unanswered. The FBI and CIA weren't communicating with one another at the end of Clinton's presidency and beginning of Bush's, so valuable intelligence that might have tipped us off to 9/11 wasn't put together in time to do anything (be it capturing Osama or finding the hijackers). Also, because of the intelligence disconnect, not a lot of information was available on Osama's travel, general where-abouts, circle of trusted subordinates, etc. so it would have been near impossible to run an offensive on the guy.

But what the hell, let's blame one guy. It's completely logical, right?

No.

If it was, the Left couldn't be using it.

Well what do you expect them to show when people are singing in the streets? Some people feel that way now, it may fade, but they feel that way now, and it's valid. And they still may feel that way later, and it's still valid.

This is incorrect. FNC just reported that the white house is debating on whether to release the photo taken of him to quell any conspiracy theories about his death. So there is at least one photo. They would be NUTS not to photograph this for proof to the world.

Oh.

It must be like Obama's Birth Certificate. He's waiting for the ink to dry on the forged photo?

There's no reason not to release the photo's of bin Laden's corpse. So what if it'll "inflame" some fanatics. The sun rise has the power to inflame muslim fanatics. Just tell them it rose over America before it got to them.

1999 - Not that it would've helped all that much but Bill DID launch a cruise missile.

Desert Fox was a sideshow joke. His missiles were aimed at empty chunks of desert. His only goal there was to shift focus from his Oval office antics.

edit: It's simply not possible to fire 66 tomahawks and kill absolutely nothing unless that's what you were trying to do.

Considering that the old washer-woman IS on the Left, the typical irrelevancy of your response is duly noted. The Mayor will request Obvioius Child to put you on "Ignore".

What's OC got to do with this? What proof do you have that Albright was the reason Osama wasn't there when the missiles hit?

Desert Fox was Iraq, 1998 buddy. I'm talkin Khost province, 1999.

Edit: I admit that if you want to take someone like bin Laden out, cruise missiles probably aren't the best solution because time is too big a factor to ignore. But my point is Clinton DID try to take out OBL, even being described by Robert Oakley as being "obsessed" with Osama.

Yes, and that was not Obama's image on TV last night. It was a 3-D photoshop of a Kenyan. Obama doesn't really exist. :mrgreen:
