There are quite a few people including Americans I have spoken to who are not convinced that the story is true at several levels. |

Crystal if they showed you a picture of him having been shot twice in the head would you believe it was Bin Laden?
Even Al Qaeda acknowledge his death.
What is it that you want to see? |

The one thing which is for sure is... they found him and got him. The head shots sound plausible and their reasons for not showing the photos.
Even the yanks would not be so stupid as to claim to have killed someone when all it would take is a web cam appearance somewhere on the internet to completely discredit the story and distroy the USA in terms of credability. |

And the benefit in that for Binnie?
Would you trust him to stay gone?
A sudden appearance discrediting the infidels would do wonders for his recruitment efforts. |

Copied from elsewhere on line.
"I was thinking about HMS Ark Royal earlier on. Not the most recent, Invincible-class carrier with the ramps for the now defunct Harriers, but the previous one, built by Cammel-Laird during the war and later adapted with an angled flight-deck, much in the style of contemporary American carriers.
Like the American carriers, the Ark Royal was equipped with steam-powered catapults to launch the heavy Vixen, Phantom and Buccaneers that formed the ship's complement of fighter and strike aircraft.
The Ark Royal was decommissioned in 1978 and I believe that the tired old piano from the ward room was removed to the flight-deck whereupon it was draped with a Union flag and given the last rites before being committed to Davey Jones's Locker over the bows, propelled by one of the catapults.
As we all know, a certain gentleman was committed to the depths this week, having been afforded the protocol appropriate to his beliefs, or so we are led to believe. There is some hesitation on the part of those responsible, whether to release identifying photographs of the deceased, but there is also a curious silence regarding the gentleman's ultimate departure.
The USS Carl Vinson, where the ceremony is reputed to have taken place, is also blessed with an angled-deck and catapults. Surely not. They wouldn't would they?" |

Crystal, i am assuming your post is very much tongue in cheek?
For his crimes he got what he deserved, no drawn out trial lasting for months then a comfy cell waiting possibly ten years before being humanely put to sleep.
He at least had a chance to fight back, more than he allowed his victims.  |

"I'm not sure that I'd bury him at sea. I'd just have kicked him overboard"
Even in the heat of conflict or the adrenalin rush of the aftermath it's important to treat enemy causalties with the respect you'd hope to be treated if the circumstances were reversed - even if you have no expectation that it'd happen.
To do otherwise reduces yourself to a level no better than theirs. |

Last point first, no execution can really be described as "humanely put to sleep"...
And basically what you are saying is he doesnt deserve a fair trial, we can assume his guilt and America are ok to act as judge, jusry and executioner. Dangerours precedent there...

His country of birth were offered his body and rejected the offer. Where else should he have been repatriated to?
Certainly nowhere where his tomb could become a shrine. He was given a funeral consistent with his so called 'beliefs' and now he feeds the fishes. Good riddance. |

"..............

It can be a bit disparaging. It was used in the UK about the US servicemen who came across here 'to win the war'. "Overpaid, oversexed and over here" as my Dad used to remind me.
It goes back much further in the US.
And, of course, it rhymes. |

lets just remember who we are talking about here, this is not some poor bloke fitted up by a corrupt or incompetent police force.
he's in the same camp as adolf, pol pot and stalin.
there was no way he would ever stand trial, he knew too much which would embarrass the usa / pakistan and others.
its a different ball game when these 'believers' are cutting peoples heads off on camera and are prepared to detonate themselves in order to destroy any type of society other than their twisted interpretation of a religion

"dont be daft i am annoyed there is NO proof "
You need to look at the wider picture. If the Americans provide photographic evidence it would inflame Bin Laden's supporters even more than they are already. Are you prepared for collateral damage greater than that of 9/11?
The Taliban have acknowledged Bin Laden's death, why can't you accept it? |

Well arguaby he's not really comparable to Adolf, Pol Pot and Stalin. What with them ruling countries and him being a terrorist. But regardless, taking Hitler as an example many, many Nazis were, and occassionally are still tried for their crimes. So your argument is somewhat flawed. |

I take you point but you could equally argue that the real difference is that the others succeeded in getting where bin Laden had only, so far, tried to go. |

Killing him avoided mass bloodshed. I back the USA! |

9/11 will be claiming many more victims for a long time to come yet. The most recent being the 80 souls lost in Pakistan this week. It started with 9/11 but Bin Laden's death won't end it. You can kill a man, but you can't kill an ideaology. |

I'm not sure it'll make much difference to the eventual death toll.
Those who'd happily have bombed, maimed and killed in pursuit of his release from Guantanamo (or wherever) will just as surely wreak their misguided revenge on those they hold responsible for his death. |

Accommodater - I wouldn't like to be held in a cellar under threat of having my head cut off until Bin Laden was released.
Neither would you.
That is what would happen hundreds of times if the Americans had not killed him.

That, if I may say so, demonstrates the core of problem.
Arguing about who will historically "be remembered as wrong uns" is a pathway to hell.
Who, just an example, were the 'wrong uns' during the Crusades? 1,000 years ago and still neither side can actually agree who was to blame for the whole insane business ???????????
1,000 years from we'll still be arguing. |

Decapitation is an interesting analogy because a lot of folks see ObL's loose organisation as a Hydra and cutting off one head (Osama's) will do nothing to quell the blood lust of the rest of beast.

"Accommodater - yes, but why shouldn't we fight back?
Should we just suffer their attacks and do nothing about them?"
We should strike back but who and where do we target?
The very nature of terrorism is about ducking and diving. AQ has nothing like Aldershot or Faslane or Lossiemouth.
Terrorists live in the local equivalent of council houses in many suburban towns across the world and a lot of them have little in common, save a shared hatred of "the west" and wouldn't recognise each other is their lives depended on it.
Who'd have thought a few NHS doctors would rent a house in Renfrewshire and ram a car into Glasgow Airport a day after one of them left a car bomb in central London? |

That's not new. The UK knew the connection between Adams, McGuiness and the IRA; knew where both lived; knew the movements (pretty much) of both, yet chose to do nothing.
I wouldn't lose sleep about "not a legally constituted government" - where there's a will .............. |

The Tory led coalition stance on aid to Pakistan says
"If progress is made on reforms, as with other partners, the UK’s aid to Pakistan will average £350 million per year over four years. Increased aid to Pakistan will be linked to progress on reform as the Government of Pakistan takes steps to build a more dynamic economy, tackle corruption and bring stability."
That, for those who don't like long sentences, is £350 million per year.

Well, if that's the Dog you believe in - so be it.
It's worth remembering that the 'poor girl' has only agreed that the acid in the eye punishment should go ahead because her assailant's family can't raise sufficient blood money to satisfy the victim's demands. |

What I find strange in all this is the Americans have the audacity to fly uninvited into another country, assassinate someone, fly out and no one objected.
I take it then everyone would turn a blind eye if say Nigerians flew in and shot Nick Griffiths.
Don't get me wrong, I have no sympathy for Bin Laden. It just makes me nervous when precedents like this are set: who's next?!! |

A pretty girl who's face now looks like it's melted, who is blind and has had her life wrecked for what?... some asshole of a twat who couldn't take no for an answer (He'd proposed marriage to her several times but she'd refused him).
Too damn right he should have got the same treatment he dealt her, but Iranian courts were probably scared of the backlash from human rights wankers who would have kicked up a stink.
Still, let the dust settle and in a couple of months who knows what might happen, quietly like. |

Your so right.
No one is denying or 'window dressing' these facts. Here we are discussing 'proof' and 'funeral arrangements' when the story for me and surely the way it will be debated in history is the point Sassy makes.
To the Op, I don't believe the Americans are misleading us about getting Bin Laden. I think he is dead. I do though believe they have mislead us on some aspects of what they have done because it goes against much of what they and we stand for, in my opinion.
I'm happy they got him, I'm disappointed with the precedent. |

We may not like their laws, but at least they appear to stand by them, an offender was put before a Judge.....instead of someone disregarding their laws and exacting revenge. Horrible crime from a horrible man, but even he got a trial. |

MI6 and more secretive branches of the British Govt have been doing this exact same thing for decades. The Cold War was rife with illegal incursions into the former Eastern Bloc and many 'hits' were carried out in the name of protecting our way of life. The Americans stated back in 2001 that nowhere is safe for the murderers of nearly 3,000 people, and you can bet your bottom dollar that if they'd prewarned the Pakistani govt they would have entered an empty compound as Bin Laden would have been long gone.
I applaud the Americans professionalism and their painstaking security services who had tracked this location for more than a year.
Should he have been arrested?
Look at the faces of jubilant Americans shortly after he was confirmed dead for your answer. |

There are plenty of rumours about a shoot to kill policy against the ASU members below Adams and McGuinness though.
It wasn't politically expedient to kill them; it was politically expedient to take out Bin Laden. That's the only argument against what was done, that expediency appears to have trumped justice. from what I've read even ObL's own people had coem to the conclusion he was a bit of a fruitcake, with them refusing to carry through his ideas for massive attacks in favour of doing what might win them power in East Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan. |

I think you are not far from the truth there. This is a man who has evaded capture for ten years and it seemed a relatively easy operation for the U.S. to take him out.
It wouldn't be the first time that an organisation has decided it's leader is surplus to requirements and took a step back to allow their enemies to remove him. |

"no i wudnt they have faked a pic of it b4
They've faked pics of Bin Laden's death before? When was that?"
Google it its easy to find the photo shopped pic
Yes it's good he's dead But personally I'd like the us to show our goverment the video footage n the photos to prove it .. I don't dislike the American people but I do dislike the choices there leader has taken not to consult the UN b4 dumping his body |

"it annoys me that the yanks think its ok to kill him and to just get rid of the body ... i mean honestly are we just ment to take the goverments word with no proof
There are quite a few people including Americans I have spoken to who are not convinced that the story is true at several levels. "
Who have u been speaking to "Hook" for god sake. even AL QUAIDA have come out and said YES HES FUCKING DEAD , what more would you want , his body on a tour of museums through the west.
He is sleeping with the fishes, deceased, dead, post life , not breathing, pushing up daises , DEAD !!! LOL |

I think it was a wise and clever decision to avoid a place of pilgrimage.
I too wondered why we didn't see pictures, but actually, as Al Queda themselves have confirmed that he is dead, now its not really needed.
Obama is a very clever president. |

i believe he died several months ago, it suits the americans so say he died in a precise operation rather than they got lucky bombing caves and mountains...funny how they happen to 'get him' just as they kill gaddafiis' CHILD relatives??? |

Anyone who felt outrage at 9/11 should shed no tears at how it's orchestrator met his grisly end. Cast your minds back to that day and picture those planes flying into the twin towers. Now imagine those on board who could see from their porthole window where they were headed and the fate that awaited them. Whilst you're at it picture those in the buildings on the floors where the planes hit who looked out and saw a jetliner heading straight for them and knew they had nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Can your hear the dull thud of human bodies hitting the pavement outside where they'd thrown themselves off the umpteenth floor - preferring to go that way instead of burning to death. Now picture in your mind all those policemen and firefighters both on the ground and in the buildings when they heard the crack-crack-crack as each floor collapsed above them knowing that they had zero time to get out and save themselves.
Finally, imagine yourself on the end of a phone as your husband/wife/sister/brother/child/mother/father/friend tearfully said 'goodbye' in the few moments they had left.
Now tell me Bin Laden didn't deserve all that he got however he got it! |

I just ask myself where the tipping point is, and who deserves to be done away with (if that is what happened) and who deserves a trial. I am not defending Bin Laden or those of any terrorist and this question is not meant to add fuel to flames. It is a genuine question : Which terrorist deserves a trial...and which do not? |

Our security services know full well who the terrorists are. In some cases I suspect they don't know enough of the hierarchy below the leading echelon so a policy of better the devil you know is applied. At the height of the Troubles in N.I. the British Army knew exactly who they needed to go after but often a more softly softly approach was needed due to myraid of factions in operation over there - the enemy of my enemy is my friend scenario - but also the enemy of my enemy is still my enemy but is useful as a friend too - sometimes.
So which terrorist deserves a trial?
The one where a trial by court and a long long spell in prison serves the public outrage, destroys a legend whilst advancing a politican's career. All the others can look forward to a bullet in the head from a man wearing night vision goggles. |

Well i never believe everything the cia and nsa feed me.If you think logically the yanks finally track down public enemy number 1,a guy with the whole plan of who or where the rest of the bad guys are ,so what do you do ,slot him and chuck him in the sea ,or tell the organisation and world he is dead so they wont go crazy like a nest of ants and change plans,in the meantime tuck him up ,fill him with the latest talk drugs and pop him off later,after all he is a dead man so no one will miss him. I think the later is the better and more productive option to be honest. |

And who gets to decide? We may well think Obama's quite a sensible lad but supposing his successor is the bat-shit crazy Sarah Palin - her definition of a terrorist might be quite different to the UK government's definition. |

The person at the top decides, and if he or she gets it wrong they have the opportunity to say so in their memoirs decades later. Nobody will ever face prosecution for executing Bin Laden and the photos may be released 50 years from now, if they haven't mysteriously disappeared by then. |

well i totally agree here, so im not the only one thinking along this line. I dont think they killed him,i think they have him stashed somewhere while they get info from him, this would be the easiest way to keep him by saying dumped at sea or they would have shown us the body and not dumped him at sea..... what proof is there that he is dead. none as he was dumped mmmmmmmmmmm
this is just my personal _iew |
