Dont they just cross Osama off list and whoever is 2 is now 1 and 3 is now 2 and so on?

There's debate about who the new number one is. Al Qeada is now operating out of Yemen by all accounts and the new #1 may be an American. Makes ya sick.

It's probably going to be the new head of Al Queda, Ayman al-Zawahiri. The man from Egypt who has escaped death too many times.

That's not what they're saying now, although I'm sure he'll remain high on the FBI's most wanted list.

Most likely it will be this guy (Yemeni-American cleric Anwar al-Aulaqi.): [img]http://www.washingtonpost.com/rf/image_606w/2010-2019/WashingtonPost/2011/05/02/Web-Resampled/2011-05-02/mwttease--606x404.jpg[/img]

I think your picture has the wrong guy or I could be searching wrong. I was reading up on Anwar al-Aulaqi. Born in America went to a bunch of Universities here. Is suspected in the 9/11 plot and recruiting and training of terrorists.

I love this quote on Wikipedia from his dad:
"He has been wrongly accused, it's unbelievable. He lived his life in America; he's an all-American boy", said his father.

But when you Google the name you posted all the pictures show this guy:

Okay so WhiteHouse has said they will not release photos of Bin Laden? Also they are doing a lot of retracting from their original statements. So I am becoming more and more convinced that 1 of 3 following is very very true....

1) Osama isn't captured and still alive and hiding
2) HUS did capture Osama but he is still alive in secret US custody somewhere no one knows.
3) Osama has been dead for years and US just now is announcing it and there were no photos to begin with.

Don't be one of "those."

He's gone, the SEALS killed him. I would just like my last memory of him to be with a hole next to his left eye.

I imagine him at the bottom of the ocean wearing concrete blocks for shoes and sharpie scribblings all over his face.

He's now Sponge Bob's [i]<buddy>[/i].

Edit: Just found a video on youtube of Osama's. Sticking a link in as it may be distressing for younger users - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czzgOr4vlUE"]Osama[/url]

I thought it was one to the leg and one to the head?

I would like to believe that no ceremony took place and that he was wrapped in bacon and dragged behind the ship.....while on fire.

Don't worry, dude. Look at it this way, our intelligence is much better now than it was back in 2001. And I believe we've thwarted Al-Qaeda more often than they've succeeded in their attacks against us, if I remember correctly (don't quote me on that). Don't get yourself all worked up.

There are generally two type of people. Ones that fret over everything and allow the media to fear monger on them. And others who just live their lives and not be afraid.

Which one do you want to be?

Really don't feel like reading the previous 8 pages, my apologies if this has been mentioned!

I've heard reports that people in the area are claiming they never heard a fire fight. Well, that obviously means 2 things:

1) The SEALS used suppressors

2) There was no return fire

See below. Remember, some of these folks will never acknowledge a U.S. victory over them.

You guys hear about the challenge coins the SEALS have under the command of Vice Admiral McRaven? The one side has the Ravens logo and they're called Task Force Raven :) Pretty neat considering these guys killed bin Laden.

I heard that story on 105.7 this morning. The Ravens PR department was made aware of it and I wouldn't be surprised if McRaven himself or the challenge coin were part of the pre-game ceremonies come September 11th.

Pakistan want proof of Bin Laden death

Bin laden daughter(12-13 yrs) said she saw her father die

Pakistan now has the stealth helicopter that had to be blown up in their hands, so in terms of technology they now know what we have and China or Russia wanting to advance in technology could want to have it.

So... they have a "blown up" helicopter in their possession? Unless I'm missing something here, I don't see how much one can learn from bits of a helicopter. Even if they did, it's not like we're enemies with China or Russia.

There is stealth technology that we don't share with everyone. Materials, etc.

I'm not saying we do share any of it when anyone. I'm just not too concerned about a seemingly destroyed helicopter in their possession. Now if it was completely intact...

I wouldn't be either, but our government is concerned which makes me concerned.

I wish we could turn this into a political discussion, the stuff I'm reading from a certain group of people is mind boggling.
