Obama is about to announce that Osama Bin Laden has been killed by American troops, and that they have the body

It's weird. In some ways it feels like a victory, I guess? And yet it doesn't feel right to be excited about it.

Maybe that's why superman renounced his American citizenship. Didn't want to tarnish America's reputation (Further) when he's gotta go kill a bitch.

I wonder what it means for the war in the middle east.

I'd guess just a boost in morale for American troops.

Also: this is the first time I have ever regretted not studying in the library because Sig Nu just ran through with flag capes, face paint, singing the national anthem and I missed it.

I have no freaking clue. People are just dumb, dumber than me even, and it amazes me.

I found Obama's wording to be interesting. He said that no Americans were killed, and then went on to say that "great care" or something was taken to ensure the lives of civilians. Makes me think some innocent people died, which kind of deadens the relief of Osama being dead, a bit.

Still though, although it might be illogical, I feel a bit safer knowing he's permanently KO'd.

Yea, there's fireworks going off here too. I don't think that it's really firework worthy. I don't think it means as much as everyone thinks it does. That it's false closure for a lot of people, but it doesn't actually change anything, especially not the situation in the middle east.

It's about time that he was brought to justice. I'm kind of wondering what it means for the situation in the Middle East as well. Specifically if there is going to be any backlash from what's left of Al-Qaeda or another terrorist organization. I believe that he's dead for the most part. They also said that he was killed in 2001 I believe. This time though, they say that they have the body and are more confident about it. Hate to sound morbid though, some are never really going to believe until they see a body. Also, it seems as if they plan to bury him soon and he will be buried at sea? Hmmm Any way though it's about damn time it happened.

Now lets get to merkin' those gas prices. wink!

You are aware that the most recent spike in gas prices has more to do with Libya, right?



I believe he was burried at sea because they didn't think any country would want to give him a proper burial.

I agree that this really doesn't mean the end of terrorism, but it really is a confidence boost to troops who've spent years trying to locate him and bring justice to the families of victims of the World Trade Centre attack.

It also will likely add some fear to the higher ups in Al-Qaeda. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

Ofcourse I know it has to do with Libya. The scuffles with Gadaffi(?) have spiked fear that the availabilty of oil will drop dramatically. So in turn the price per barrel of oil has risen markedly. But i thoght they only contributed about 2 percent of the worlds supply? Or is just the supply to the U.S. ? I was just suggesting we should find a quick solution to the conflict, which I know most likely will not happen. Smile

I agree that it is a huge confidence boost and a much needed one.

No he was getting shit about going against the real problem. Achmed Ahmadinejad.

Thats half of why this doesn't feel like a victory as it would have in 2002. The world has changed. Bin Laden doesn't lead al-queda anymore, he was found in an Ally's country and Iran's the bigger threat.

I saw some video clips of spontaneous 'parties' in various places (mostly the states), with chants of "U-S-A! U-S-A!".

Don't get me wrong, I don't think the guy deserved to live, but celebrating it like that is a little sick to me.
