What about all those reports that he was living in a cave?

Turned out he was living in a "mansion" (by Pakistani standards) a couple of miles from Abbottabad Golf Club.

A bad day at golf is better than a good day at work.

The US Govt would have certainly very carefully photo-documented the whole thing, from start to finish, knowing full well the absolute necessity of ultimate proof if need be.

From all the news about this, I think we can all be sure this is accurate.

If not, let him show himself.

Meh, then again...I'll believe it when We get photos of the body. Oh, wait, we threw it in the ocean.... Roll Eyes

A fitting end for someone whose very existence could be doubtful.

Just sayin.

It happened about a week ago by some of the reports I've heard. So they had time for a photo op, DNA tests and preparations for sea burial according to Muslim tradition.

So now he's fish food..... Smiley

The President said last night that it happened yesterday morning. My question, is where did they get the DNA to compare it to?

It could have been last night, last week or even last month. The military/government has a long practice of disinformation. If it felt the divulgence of the exact time would harm the US interests in any way, the time would be given as a time deemed appropriate for national security and to avoid further questions. Wink

The DNA sample was said to come from his sister to the best of my knowledge... Undecided

Has anyone else noticed that since this happened the 9/11 conspiracy theorists have come (back) out of the woodwork? Some people say the dumbest crap. Roll Eyes

Also, digital media can be easily copied. I don't think it's a good idea to give his followers any images that would help make a martyr out of that coward Wink

Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

No photos, thank you. Not needed. 20 out of 25 Miss Universe contestants agree, " I wish for world peace"
People can say this or that, but at the end of the day it doesn't change things much. Hat's off to the Navy Seals and Special Opps. So let's move on and try to give all those pretty girls their wish. Cool

I believe that they got him. but I know a few people who think that they didn't and that its all a political farce of some kind. Pictures would go a long way in convincing those people.

Personally, I don't normally want to see pictures of a guy who got shot in the face. But being that it's a guy who set in motion an attack on my country, I wouldn't mind seeing him lying in a pool of blood. Barbaric as it sounds, that's how I feel about this situation.

Nope.... it wouldn't. They already "know" it didn't happen...... and the reason they even bring up the subject publically is to say just that. If they were standing there when he was shot... they'd say it was a body double. There us usually a "subtext" purpose for probably 99% of those folks.

Just the way the world is. Roll Eyes

The problem is that pictures can be phOtoshopped. It's so much more prevalent than it ever has been these past years.

Video can also be manipulated. Look at Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump getting the CMH from LBJ and how he was added to the video of George Wallace's speech at the school.

A 12 ga is ALLOT worse! Photo ID is normally required to ID the body.... Shocked

A 50 Cal....this is why DNA testing is so widely use to ID bodies, to ID body parts and red splats.... Shocked

I think the world can be pretty sure that Bin Laden is now dead.

He also was not killed years ago because the Bush government would simply not have handed that bombshell to the Democrats.

Imagine the publicity stunt of him now releasing a new video with proof of date.
It ain't going to happen. Period. If he was still alive that is what he would do - with glee.

He's dead. He was killed a few days ago. The absolute facts will probably emerge in time.
The extremist terrorist chapter is not over. Never will be. Part of the human being story.

But at least we can close the chapter on 'Bin Laden still at large'

Think Global. It's the world we live in.
