Bin Laden Killed
 

President Obama is supposed to address the nation in 15 minutes (10:30pm Sunday Night) but no one knows what he's going to talk about.

Rumor is Gadhafi has been captured, perhaps even killed

We'll find out soon enough

Scratch my original post

My sources now tell me this is about Bin Laden. Obama is expected to announce Bin Laden is dead.

wow, all the news stations have no clue. Interesting to see what it's about.

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Holy Shit.

Hmmmm, there was an Afghan airstrike that killed some Taliban members today...

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Tremendous news!!

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Blitzer is saying it's definitely not related to Libya but he's hearing its really big news. This is pretty interesting...

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Huge news...and he pre-empts Celebrity Apprentice. Suck it Trump! :)

Seriously though, it's so unusual for the President to announce a last minute news conference on a Sunday night and give no advance notice of what it's about

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Wolf Blitzer saying it'll be more like 10:50...

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Yes yes yes yes yes yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Killed by a Jewish hit squad to prevent him from testifying the truth about what happened to the Titanic. #Truth.

But no, big ass missile.

A US missile to boot. We've got his body, too. I have tears in my eyes.

Ok, so rather than the President coming on and making the big dramatic statement, we now have all the news media telling us the details. I would have liked to hear it first from Pres. Obama (well Smoot first, then Pres Obama).

Really want to hear how it went down...

Bring our TROOPS HOME

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Fox news scroll said that he was killed a week ago by a US bomb, and that DNA testing has confirmed that the body is Bin Laden

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Wow, this is insane.

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

How influential had he really been to Al Qaeda strategically these past few years is what I want to know.

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Fantastic news. Can we get his head on a stick displayed near ground zero?

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

[quote=SmootSmack;800345]How influential had he really been to Al Qaeda strategically these past few years is what I want to know.[/quote]Agreed, and now we all need to hope he doesn't become a martyr or rallying cry for his followers. Obviously I'm sure the military is preparing for that.

He hasn't been operational but he has had a large symbolic/motivational influence for the nutty Muslims.

This is enormously good. I'm glad we have his body - we can keep it from being an object of reverence for the crazies.

Emotional Response: F*** YEAH BITCH!!!

Intellectual Response: Okay. So, now what? Is the war on terror over?

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

CNN says he was killed by US in a mansion outside of Islamabad Pakistan. Interesting...

LOL. Like.

This is so freaking big.

He was living in a mansion in Pakistan? Pakistan, you've got some splaining to do....

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

I hate to keep harping, but if you have known for a week, then gotten confirmation today, then why are you now 45 minutes past when you were gonna do the announcement. I don't quite get it.

i thought you were in the army? you should know the drill

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Interesting, CNN just said they're hearing it was a human operation and not a missile or drone strike.

Does this mean it's ok to masturbate on airplanes now?

re: Bin Laden Killed
 

Yeah, true enough.

You would think so. It's harder to collect the body from a missile strike.

Very strange - I was already going to be lecturing on bin Laden in class tomorrow. Now we'll have even more to talk about!
