Some major development about Osama Bin Laden, Obama about to make an announcement soon. The only press release at the moment is
that the president is about the make a statement about a major development regarding a CIA operation and him soon.

EDIT - He's dead.

lol he has been for 10 years...

Nice one Obama. And now you win 2012.

exactly...

CIA got bored of him?

I see new DLC for Modern Warfare now!

So how does everyone feel about this?

I see the major news sites are starting to sound more confident about this......but...how would they know?
They say they've gotta run a DNA test to confirm...but where'd they get his DNA to provide a basis for comparison anyway?
and what sources? everyone seems to be saying "from sources" in their articles...I'd be curious to see what these are.
Exciting times, I just hope they're right and things doesn't get lulled into some false sense of security.

Trump was about to learn too much. They had to let it out now.

*** UPDATE *** This is the result of a U.S. action in Pakistan, killed by U.S. personnel, and that the United States has bin Laden's body.

*** UPDATE 2 *** This is, by the way, the eighth anniversary of President Bush's 2003 speech on an aircraft carrier with the banner, "Mission Accomplished" behind him.

Umm, they got his DNA from his body. They get the comparison DNA from family members - he's got a lot of them. They look for specific familial markers...

UPDATE 3 - Apparently due to action on the ground, which means we were running covert ops on the ground in Pakistan (big surprise there).

Interested you asked but since you did my 2cents.

How many years, how many lives have been lost? All these petty policing acts by the good olde' US of A, got to love 'em

Look, I don't mind if a world police force, who by their charter rid the 'silent majority' (raises hand self) of all this dead wood.

Truly I don't. I figure they do us (again the majority) a favor much like this damn spellchecker

Funny the other day I was reading an article on evolution and human efforts to extend life (on paper and not the 'net' so it has some credence ). It was funny to contemplate, while we humans strive for life extension (read immortality) good old nature has way of balancing the scales, how many bums on seats (people on this small globe in the void of space/time).

So I ask, all this loss of life; for what?

Somehow, somewhere someone is watching
Me, just happy to breathe and watch on, and yes I know there will be some that flame, well, get a life

Update Four: OBama takes credit

Update Five - Donald Trump takes credit.

What will Pakistan do now that their president is dead?

Good news. Next...

It's funny b/c it's true. Or at least, all the Paki's.

lol

If this is true two things will happen:

- The price of oil will go up
- Security at airports will increase
