Announcement from the White House coming up in minutes....
Heard it on the car radio an hour ago. Outstanding !
This is just a political operation. By at least 5 times, the allied forces have had Bin Laden at their snipers mercy. Twice with the british special forces, once with the french special forces. They asked to the NATO the authorisation to shoot and it was refused.
Clearly, the US wanted to have the poliical benefit of this operation, at the right time. It confirms what I was thinking from beginning: Hillary will have been better than Obama as president. US have a blackberry president, nothing else.
In addition, there is very fuzzy details on his death, they say he is dead but they dropped the body in the sea... Strange. I sound that he was already dead from sickness or old age. Al Qaeda could not claim his death in such non-martyr situation. The Allied forces learned it and got the benefits for the "killing". This is the most likely hypothesis.
Yeah, I suspect there is more tacit collusion of that kind than we'll ever know.Originally Posted by Makandal

I'm hoping Congress declares a national holiday. I think that would be an awesome message to send.
One possible reason for that could be if the snipers were not going to be able to recover the corpse. Getting the corpse is almost as important as getting the kill.Originally Posted by Makandal
Getting rid of the body is..... so unfortunate..... and yet almost what you would expect now. Couldn't they have at least severed one of his hands or something?

There is one unofficial picture circulating on the web. But technology is wonderful. Import this picture and launch Google Goggles. And SURPRISE.... You discover that the picture has been circulating on the web for a while. So the US army was forced to admit that the picture is fake.
Let us be very very careful with this information. I think critical thinking is what we need.
Why would they be "forced to admit" anything about an unofficial picture? I agree about the critical thinking.Originally Posted by Makandal
As this such picture has been used by several media organisations including the BBC, CNN, MSNBC etc as an official photo- yet it is not, of course.

Congratulations to the Seals and the administration: amazing job. No thanks to the Pakistanis, apparently.
It's a good thing we didn't kill him in the first few months. It would have looked like he was a true martyr and dying was part of his plan. Since he's been hiding from us for nearly 10 years, it would be hard to sell that story now.
Now he just looks like an idiot who picked a fight he couldn't win. Hopefully, anyway. His death doesn't look like it was particularly brave, at any rate.
Ten years toolate. Pointless exercise. No significant effect. Useful for people who wish to delude themselves. Indicative of emotional, not logical thinking on the part of governments. (What a surprise.).
100% agree with you dear colleague. Why do geologists form such an homogenous community of idea around politics, good wines and foods and pretty ladies ? This has to be explained.
Anyway, about the picture, I don't know how many of you saw cadavers but this is not common to see a cadaver with red lips.
It is never too late to take down a scum bag like OBL , he is not an untouchable. What we need to do now, is get rid of the hate preacher Anjem Choudary from the UK.Originally Posted by Ophiolite
Here is the difficulty. (Several, actually.)Originally Posted by Dave Wilson
He is a scumbag who was initially trained and supported by the West.
He was expressing - all be it inappropriately - a strongly felt sentiment about the negative aspects of Western culture and 'civilisation'.
His current role had almost certainly diminished to near zero effectiveness, so eliminating him was about as useful burping in an oratorical contest.
Biggest effect is psychological. A lot of people are still very deeply wounded mentally by what happened on 9/11, or in the UK, or in Yemen, or all of the school girls he killed, or by the Buddhist statues he blew up, or by any of the other countless atrocities he visited.
You are right... It's not terribly significant when viewed with a long enough lens. But, for many, it brings a sense of closure, relief, and frankly here in the US a bit of needed boost. Lately, our airwaves have been tied up with poo flinging... Political debate which doesn't even rise to the level of kindergarten... Questions about the illegitimacy of the president, and whether or not he was actually born where all evidence says he was born. This brings a welcome change of subject.
It's all psychological, and I concede appeals to a basic human desire for revenge, but that doesn't mean it's all bad or all insignificant. Like when a bully keeps stealing your money on the playground, and one day you finally step up and punch him in the throat. Did it really accomplish anything? No, not really, but it changes the tone and the feelings about the situation fairly significantly... especially for those steal healing from mental wounds Osama caused because of his role in causing the deaths of their lost loved ones.
But that's only because of the intensive manhunt, which ended successfully. Since he could not communicate with Al Qaeda without risking exposure, his effectiveness was limited.Originally Posted by Ophiolite
I sense that you are sympathetic towards OBL, and wish he had not been killed.
I very much doubt this, Harold, and suspect that Ophi probably doesn't care very much one way or the other and is just tired of all of the celebration and jubilee being spammed across every network and airwave.Originally Posted by Harold14370
Of course Ophi can speak for himself, but I would challenge you heavily on the way you jumped immediately to such a skewed conclusion as if that is the only possibility.
Harold,

Osama was never more than a figure head. Nothing I've ever read of him indicates that he was any kind of tactical genius, nor that he even had military training. He was just a rallying point, a local folk hero who had spent his millions of dollars on projects to benefit people poorer than him. It would be like saying that George Cloony is the mastermind behind efforts to stop the slaughters in Sudan.Originally Posted by Ophiolite

However, his value as a figure head was inestimable. Killing him was a good way of making a political statement.
Woo Hoo! Mission accomplished!
Can we stop sending our friends and family over to die in a shitty sandhole for corporate oil profits now?
No. That would require significant investment in (and subsidization of) green energy first.

He was part of training by the CIA in the mid-80's as part of the mujahideen and led a company sized tactical unit where he gained a reputation as a superb organizer and courageous leader.
He was college educated in business and used this knowledge in combination with his natural charisma to orchestrate converting millions of dollars into weaponry and supplies--this was perhaps his largest contribution to fighting the Soviets. He's use the same skills later to build his organization.
His writings and speeches resonated with Muslims like few others in many generations.
He was a lot more than just a figurehead and I'm damn glad he's gone.
I liked this write up:
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/04/op...4friedman.html
We did our part. We killed Bin Laden with a bullet. Now the Arab and Muslim people have a chance to do their part — kill Bin Ladenism with a ballot — that is, with real elections, with real constitutions, real political parties and real progressive politics.
Yes, the bad guys have been dealt a blow across the Arab world in the last few months — not only Al Qaeda, but the whole rogues’ gallery of dictators, whose soft bigotry of low expectations for their people had kept the Arab world behind. The question now, though, is: Can the forces of decency get organized, elected and start building a different Arab future? That is the most important question. Everything else is noise.
I knew he had skill with finances. I didn't know he had actually done any fighting, so that shows what I know. I wonder if terrorist money will be easier to find now that he's not moving it around?Originally Posted by Lynx_Fox
Somehow I doubt it. I think there are people much more skillful than him working behind the scenes, but I would be really happy to be wrong about that.
I didn't mean to imply that he wasn't a good figure head. He was a great inspiration to a lot of people. That's why I'm glad we got to put a bullet in him (or two, as the case may be). It sends a message about who to follow.His writings and speeches resonated with Muslims like few others in many generations.
He was a lot more than just a figurehead and I'm damn glad he's gone.
Also why I think we should declare a holiday. He can become the next Guy Fawkes. "Remember remember, the 6th of November...." Anybody know a good rhyme for 911?
Figure head is the term I objected too because it's usually attributed to someone, or something which plays little more than a cosmetic role with little actual influence or authority. (taken from the painted mermaids and monsters etc on the prow of ships).Originally Posted by kojax
Osama played a huge role in the spiritual and financial leadership of Al-Qaeda.
What would you equate his emotional role to? Would it be like Thomas Paine in the American revolution? (Except Paine didn't directly do any fighting or financing.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Paine
I'm concerned with his emotional/inspirational role because I think it was the least replaceable one he played. Probably the terrorists have other people with business degrees and combat experience, but they'll have a hard time replacing a legend.
As for the holiday, I think the more vehemently we express our hatred for him, the more clear it should become to moderate Muslims that our fight is/was against him and not them. It's important that we express that as clearly as we possibly can.
For all that conspiracy thinking, one would suspect that you may also believe they kept the body and dumped a dummy into the sea. Or that the DNA evidence is faked.Originally Posted by Makandal

speech which openly advocates terrorism.
I appreciate you clarifying, but I wonder if you only say this because you see them as an enemy and you want to "allow" them the right of this expression so you can more plainly identify them as targets... as opposed to say protecting the concept of individual freedoms as a goal in itself... recognizing the larger issue and standing up for free speech being allowed even for those with whom we ideologically disagree.Originally Posted by Harold14370

It is really weird to imagine demonstrators needing permission. Here I thought the UK was as advanced as we are in the USA (perhaps even more so), but I guess they're still living in the stone ages with regard to some things.
But... the other weird thing is that Muslim activists would choose to hold a mock funeral in the UK outside the US embassy, but not one in the USA itself. They wouldn't need permission, nor would it be illegal in any sense for them to hold one here if they wanted to. Could it be possible that they are actually scared to do something that would offend Americans on our own soil?

Signs that say "vengeance attacks are guaranteed" would probably exceed the limits of free speech in the USA. You're not allowed to threaten anyone with actual violence. They can shut you down for that.Radicals carrying placards proclaiming 'Islam will dominate the world' branded US leaders 'murderers' and warned vengeance attacks were 'guaranteed'.
The mosque isn't exactly meant as a shrine to the terrorists, or as an act of provocation. I'm sure moderate Muslims would like to express as clearly as they can that they weren't part of, and did not approve of the 9/11 attacks.Originally Posted by Dave Wilson
The people who held a mock funeral for Osama were making it pretty clear they are not moderate Muslims. It's kind of dangerous to make yourself known as a non-moderate Muslim in the USA right now. Certainly if your employer knew that you had been part of such a march, you would be out of a job. Someone would film the protesters' faces and put them on U-Tube, and then people would make it their personal mission to harass the hell out of the participants.

A better example might be our deep history of racist terrorism of the past and more recently the anti-abortion violence by the "Army of God" and other organizations.
Not many Muslims loudly denouncing terrorism or publicly saying Obama's death was a good thing--that's a problem. Islam is a few hundred years behind Christianity in dulling their hate rhetoric.

Likewise, Nigeria is a complicated situation because the Muslims have been there for several hundred years, but Christians arrived with the colonial regime and have wielded disproportionate power in the country.

It's easy to make it appear that sectarian violence is never done by Christians if you want to ignore stuff like anti-Muslim violence by Christians in Bosnia and during the Lebanese Civil War. Alternatively, the most populous Islamic country in the world, Indonesia, sees little sectarian violence.

Temanggung, Central Java. The Central Java Police claimed on Wednesday that the attack a day earlier on two churches and a Christian school by Islamic hard-liners was not a religious conflict.
Central Java Police Chief Insp. Gen. Edward Aritonang said the attack, which also saw two other buildings vandalized, was “purely an act of criminal vandalism.”
He added the fact that the mob had targeted Christian buildings did not prove that they were hostile to the religion.
“The mob attacked and destroyed a number of places, including churches, triggered by their dissatisfaction over a verdict handed down to Antonius Richmord Bawengan,” he said.
“The fact is that the judges in the case handed down the maximum sentence, so the rioting had nothing to do with religious issues.”
Antonius, a Christian on trial for contempt of Islam, was on Tuesday sentenced to five years in prison by the Temanggung District Court, as per the prosecution’s demand, but the ruling angered hard-line Islamic groups that deemed it too lenient and subsequently went on the rampage.

The reason why a country like Turkey, Kazakhstan, Albania or Bosnia see less anti-Christian violence is likely because they have a tradition of secularized society. It's not some innate violence in Islam that causes these incidents, it is the lack of secular society and the political situations of the areas that exacerbate the problems. As I said earlier, Christians do engage in sectarian violence.
