Now they have got Osama, What now ?

News today " Al-Qaeda founder and leader Osama Bin Laden is killed by US ground forces in Pakistan "

Has anyone else seen the American footage of this ? I am really surprised at how they are "whooping" it up and celebrating. Terms like "his body has been disposed of at sea" is surely going to stir the Hornets nest.

Or with this fella gone, will the Al-Qaeda movement die as well.. I am not so sure.

OBL was never the CEO of an organisation - he was the figurehead for a network of terrorists. They'll just find another figurehead, then set out for revenge.

Time to batten down the hatches, pull up the drawbridge, and any other metaphors you can think of...

i cant see a shortage of fellow nutjobs willing to take his place.
i hope plod et all are watching some of our home grown suspects for strange behaviour and monitoring what is going on at mosques etc.
meanwhile,keep your eyes are ears open as i bet something will be happening soon.
oh and well done seals?

i can't see the fighting's going to be any different, maybe even a new wave of (funda)mentalists.

however, who have they actually killed?


has it always been the same guy?

Very strange story from start to finish, he was in a big house in Islamabad next to an Army barracks, it's all very strange.

Rubber dinghy rapids bro :-)

buried at sea. lol. thrown out a helicopter at sea i imagine

Or someone in Obama's PR office had a very good idea for a press release at the right time! Bin Laden might have nothing to do with it.

Maybe he was dead from 2007 maybe he's been dead forever, maybe he's still alive. Who knows.


Either way, it's a flipping gorgeous sunny day out here in the countryside.

Call me Mr Sceptical, but 'buried at sea'?

I fear the bollockometer is approaching a 10...

i imagine US troops will have seen the bodies, and they will be the ones who dumped the body at sea


PSpirine - 2/5/11 at 11:38 AM

Have they seen THE bodies? Or have they seen A body?

Or were they just TOLD to see a body? Hasn't scary movie told you anything? American's "can see dead people!"

i don't go in for all the conspiracy nonsense. if they wanted to tell everyone he'd been killed, they would have done it 6 years ago. and for a man who likes to post videos of him self quite a lot, they'd be silly to say he'd been killed for him to turn up in another video next week.
but of course, i'm sure theres more than 1 man who looks like bin laden
