You guys gotta step out of the American pride bubble and look at it. If he is dead I'm glad, 9/11 was terrible and I personally think the ****** needs to be publicly lynched instead of just shot. I'm not one of those conspiracy theorist idiots but it just seems suspicious.

Next year is an election year, Obama's ratings are in the *******. Pulling out of Afghanistan without "finishing the job" would have pissed everyone off. Obama is on record saying the US will not be going to Libya because the military is currently spread to thin. So it's a win-win-win. Obama gets Osama, they can pull out of Afghanistan. Oh and suddenly there's resources to go somewhere else.

Just my two cents.

EDIT - Today is also election day in Canada, our current PM extended the Canadian mission in Afghanistan to avoid not finishing the job. He's running again.

I would have prefferred they parade him around in a clown suit while crowds thrown stones at him like the Peruvian government did to the shining path leader in the 90s. The best way to avoid making him a matyr is removal all credibility and this auroa he has of a more-than-man type image.

But in any event, **** yea!

Vince B, it's not only the billions of dollars, it's all the lives lost too.

Like socaliallstar82 said, "Would have been better to have caught him alive and made him pay for the crap he did. Death by a bomb seems like an easy way out", yes, but Seals got him. And yes, it's better he didn't even know it was coming.

I hate to say it, but that's how those nutjobs think.

I hope not.
Cody, IDK about whenever, wherever. Like AKlow, I'm glad we finally got him, but it took 10 long yrs.

mhotrodscooter, as far as him being taken & buried at sea? There's no perfect place for a P.O.S. like him. he'll tarnish the sea or a pasture.

bud8fan, I hope the body isn't on it's way to the USA, not unless it's gonna be out in a pasture w/. all the rest of the !!!

There's not many people I have a strong dislike for, but this guy had it coming. See ya!!!

You don't suppose that his live body could lead to ANOTHER terrorist attack on American soil?
