I get a happy little feeling in my belly when I think of the moment osama saw the us troops and his heart dropped lol


Must have been pricless. I hope they will release plenty of Osama with a hole in the head pics to splash all over the internet and to torment extreamist websites with

Right?!?! I would have paid good money to see a close-up picture of Osama's face when he seen the muzzle flashes from the Apache helicopter.. as it fired round after round into Bin Laden's body. That photo would indeed... be priceless. But think about it.. you know, if someone could have actually got a picture of that.. it would actually indeed be almost priceless. Put it on E-bay and see what kind of cash that would bring in.. eh? I guarantee you.. you'd make some big, big bucks.

Lastly.. I want to see pictures of the body. I mean, sure I believe that we got him.. but I just want to be 100% sure that its indeed him.. and not someone that looked like him because some of those people over there look alike in very similar ways. So, for me personally.. until the media/government decides to release PROOF that we actually did indeed kill the right person.... I'm going to remain pessimistic about this.

I hope we did get him though.. I really do. With time, the truth will come.. it always does.

peace.

OBAMA WATCHED RAID LIVE IN SITUATION ROOM...



Getting bin Laden: How the mission went down
By: Mike Allen
May 2, 2011 10:32 AM EDT

The helicopter carrying Navy SEALs malfunctioned as it approached Osama bin Laden’s compound at about 3:30 p.m. ET Sunday, stalling as it hovered. The pilot set it down gently inside the walls, then couldn’t get it going again.
It was a heart-stopping moment for President Barack Obama, who had been monitoring the raid in the White House Situation Room since 1 p.m., surrounded by members of his war cabinet.

“Obviously, everyone was thinking about Black Hawk Down and Desert One,” a senior administration official recalled.

The SEALs disembarked.

“The assault team went ahead and raided the compound, even though they didn’t know if they would have a ride home,” an official said.
The special forces put bombs on the crippled chopper and blew it up, then lifted off in a reinforcement craft just before 4:15 p.m., capping an astounding 40 minutes that gave the United States a tectonic victory in the 10-year war on terror touched off by 9/11.
The sick chopper turned out to be a tiny wrinkle in an astounding military and intelligence triumph. Bin Laden was shot in the face by the SEALs during a firefight after resisting capture.
He was buried at sea less than 12 hours later. He was 54.

Here’s how the world’s most-hunted man was vanquished, as recounted by senior administration officials:
Contrary to the intelligence community’s long-held belief that bin Laden was in a lawless “no man’s land” on the Pakistani border, bin Laden had been hiding in a three-story house in a one-acre compound in Abbottabad, about 35 miles north of Islamabad, the Pakistani capital. Officials describe it as a relatively affluent community, with lots of residents who are retired military.

“Bin Laden was living in a relatively comfortable place: a compound valued at about $1 million,” a senior U.S. official told POLITICO. “Many of his foot soldiers are located in some of the remotest regions of Pakistan and live in austere conditions. You’ve got to wonder if they’re rethinking their respect for their dead leader. He obviously wasn’t living as one of them.”

Officials described the raid as the culmination of years of highly advanced intelligence work that included the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), which specializes in imagery and maps, and the National Security Agency (NSA), the “codemakers and codebreakers” who can covertly watch and listen to conversations around the world.

On June 2, 2009, just over four months into his presidency, Obama had signed a memo to CIA Director Leon Panetta stating “in order to ensure that we have expanded every effort, I direct you to provide me within 30 days a detailed operation plan for locating and bringing to justice” bin Laden.

In the biggest break in a global pursuit of bin Laden that stretched back to the Clinton administration, the U.S. discovered the compound by following one of the terrorist’s personal couriers, identified by terrorist detainees as one of the few al Qaeda couriers who bin Laden trusted.

“They indicated he might be living with and protecting bin Laden,” a senior administration official told reporters on a midnight conference call. “Detainees gave us his nom de guerre, or his nickname, and identified him as both a protégé of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of September 11th, and a trusted assistant of Abu Faraj al-Libbi, the former number three of al Qaeda who was captured in 2005.”

Officials didn’t learn the courier’s name until 2007. Then it took two years to find him and track him back to this compound, which was discovered in August 2010.

“It was a “Holy cow!” moment,” an official said.

The compound had been relatively secluded when it was built in 2005 — on the outskirts of the town center, at the end of a narrow dirt road.

“In the last six years, some residential homes have been built nearby,” an official said on the call. “The main structure, a three-story building, has few windows facing the outside of the compound. A terrace on the third floor … has a seven-foot privacy wall. … [T]he property is valued at approximately $1 million but has no telephone or Internet service connected to it.”

Everything about the compound signaled that it was being used to hide someone important.

“It has 12- to 18-foot walls topped with barbed wire,” the official said. “Internal wall sections — internal walls sectioned off different portions of the compound to provide extra privacy. Access to the compound is restricted by two security gates, and the residents of the compound burn their trash, unlike their neighbors, who put the trash out for collection.

For all their suspicions, U.S. officials never knew for sure that bin Laden was inside.

The White House’s original plan had been to bomb the house, but Obama ultimately decided against that.

“The helicopter raid was riskier. It was more daring,” an official told POLITICO. “But he wanted proof. He didn’t want to just leave a pile of rubble.”

Officials knew there were 22 people living there, and Obama wanted to be sure not to kill civilians unnecessarily. So he ordered officials to come up with an air-assault plan.

The SEALs held rehearsals of the raid on April 7 and April 13, with officials monitoring the action from Washington.

As the real thing approached, daily meetings were held of the national security principals, chaired by National Security Adviser Tom Donilon, and their deputies, chaired by John Brennan, the president’s counterterrorism adviser.

Over the past seven weeks, Obama had chaired numerous National Security Council meetings on the topic, including ones on March 14, March 29, April 12, April 19 and April 28.

“In the lead up to this operation, the President convened at least 9 meetings with his national security Principals,” a senior administration official e-mailed reporters. “Principals met formally an additional five times themselves; and their Deputies met 7 times. This was in addition to countless briefings on the subject during the President’s intelligence briefings; and frequent consultations between the [White House National Security Council], CIA, [Defense Department] and Joint Staff. The President was actively involved in reviewing all facets of the operation.”

At an April 19 meeting in the Situation Room, the president approved the air assault as the course of action. He ordered the force to fly to the region to conduct it.

Last Thursday, just after his East Room announcement that Panetta would succeed Robert Gates as Defense Secretary, the president held another meeting in the Situation Room, and went through everyone’s final recommendations.

Obama didn’t announce his decision at the meeting, but kept his counsel overnight.

In the White House Diplomatic Room at 8:20 a.m. on Friday, before flying down to view tornado destruction in Alabama, Obama informed Donilon that he was authorizing the operation. Also attending the meeting were Brennan, White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley and Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough.

Donilon signed a written authorization to Panetta, who commanded the strike team. Donilon convened a principals’ meeting at 3 p.m. to finish the planning.

The raid was scheduled for Saturday, the day when Obama and most of the West Wing was due at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. But weather pushed it to Sunday.

Top West Wing staff worked most of the day on the operation. Senior national-security officials stayed in the Situation Room beginning at 1 p.m.

The official’s e-mail gave this account of Obama’s day: “2:00pm the President met with the Principals to review final preparations. … 3:32pm the President returned to the Sit Room for an additional briefing. … 3:50pm the President first learns that UBL was tentatively identified. … 7:01pm the President learns that there’s a ‘high probability’ the HVT [high-value target] was [bin Laden]. … 8:30pm the President receives further briefings.”

In the Situation Room, the president was surrounded by Daley, Donilon, McDonough, Gates, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mike Mullen, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and others.

Panetta was at CIA headquarters, where he had turned his conference room into a command center that gave him constant contact with the tactical leaders of the strike team.

With the team still in the compound, the commander on the ground told a remote commander that they had found bin Laden.

Applause erupted in Washington.

Three other adult males were killed with bin Laden, officials said.

“We believe two were the couriers and the third was bin Laden’s adult son,” an official said on the call. “There were several women and children at the compound. One woman was killed when she was used as a shield by a male combatant. Two other women were injured.”

U.S. forces took photographs of the body, and officials used facial-recognition technology to compare them with known pictures of bin Laden.

It was him.

At 11:35 p.m., Obama stepped into the East Room and told the world: “Justice has been done.”

Bin Laden killing brings anger, relief in Arab world

By Samia Nakhoul | Reuters – Mon, 2 May, 2011 7:31 AM EDT

BEIRUT (Reuters) - Those who revered him prayed the news was not true but many in the Arab world felt the death of Osama bin Laden was long overdue.
Some said the killing of the Saudi-born al Qaeda founder in Pakistan was scarcely relevant any more, now that secular uprisings have begun toppling corrupt Arab autocrats who had resisted violent Islamist efforts to weaken their grip on power.

"Oh God, please make this news not true ... God curse you, Obama," said a message on a Jihadist forum in some of the first Islamist reaction to the al Qaeda leader's death. Oh Americans ... it is still legal for us to cut your necks."
For some in the Middle East, bin Laden has been seen as the only Muslim leader to take the fight against Western dominance to the heart of the enemy -- in the form of the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington in 2001.
On the streets of Saudi Arabia, bin Laden's native land which stripped him of his citizenship after September 11, there was a mood of disbelief and sorrow among many.

"I feel that it is a lie," said one Saudi in Riyadh. He did not want to be named. "I don't trust the U.S. government or the media. They just want to be done with his story. It would be a sad thing if he really did die. I love him and in my eyes
he is a hero and a jihadist."

Officials in the country of his birth maintained near silence at the news of bin Laden's death. The state news agency merely noted that Washington and Pakistan had announced it.

Other Gulf Arab states also eschewed comment.

"HARMED ISLAM"

Another strand of opinion believes that bin Laden and al Qaeda brought catastrophe on their Muslim world as the United States retaliated with two wars, in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the word "Islam" became associated with "terrorism."

"The damage bin Laden had caused Islam is beyond appalling and a collective shame," said another Saudi, Mahmoud Sabbagh, on Twitter.

Another, anonymous, Saudi said: "He might have had a noble idea to elevate Islam but his implementation was wrong and caused more harm than good. I believe his death will calm people down and may dry up the wells of terrorism."
In Yemen, bin Laden's ancestral home and the base for al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, which has been behind recent foiled anti-American attacks, some believed his death would cause his group to lose heart.
"Al Qaeda is finished without bin Laden. Al Qaeda members will not be able to continue," said Ali Mubarak, a Yemeni man in his 50s as he sipped tea in a cafe in Sanaa.
For many Arabs, inspired by the popular upheavals of the past few months, the news of Osama bin Laden's death had less significance than it once might have.

"The death of Osama is coming at a very interesting time. The perfect time, when Al Qaeda is in eclipse and the sentiments of freedom are rising," said Jamal Khashoggi, Saudi commentator and independent analyst.
Recalling the mass demonstrations on Cairo's Tahrir Square, he added: "The people at Tahrir Square had shut down the ideas and concepts of bin Laden."

Egyptian Thanaa Al-Atroushy said: "Though I am surprised, I don't think such news will affect anything in any way. He is a man of al Qaeda, who are known to have weird beliefs to justify killing the innocent like those of September 11."

RISK OF RETALIATION

But while some hoped his death may terminate al Qaeda, many others believe that al Qaeda franchises across the world would continue campaigns against the United States.
"I am not happy at the news. Osama was seeking justice. He was taking revenge on the Americans and what they did to Arabs, his death to me is martyrdom, I see him a martyr," added Egyptian Sameh Bakry, a Suez Canal employee.
Omar Bakri, a Lebanese Sunni cleric, mourned bin Laden as a martyr: "His martyrdom will give momentum to a large generation of believers and jihadists.

"Al Qaeda is not a political party, it is a jihadist movement. Al Qaeda does not end with the death of a leader. Bin Laden was first the generation of the Qaeda and now there is a second, third, fourth and fifth generation."
In Iraq, ravaged by nearly a decade of violence in the battle between bin Laden and the West, some were cautious about the circumstances in which Washington announced his death.
"This is the end of this play. The play about the character of bin Laden that was fabricated by Americans to deform the image of Islam and Muslims," said Ali Hussain.

"How can you can convince me that all these years American could not kill or even reach him. Americans knew bin Laden suffered from health problems. Maybe he was approaching his death and they wanted to exploit it."
In non-Arab Iran, a sworn enemy of the United States, some ordinary people were also skeptical of Washington's account: "Are we sure that he has been killed?" said Tehran shopkeeper Ali Asghar Sedaghat. "Or is it another game of the Americans?"

U know, I don't know if 2012 and this current event (killing of Bin Ladin) have anything to do with each other. But it sure is awfully convenient that this just happened to have happened so close to what scientists are calling (the end of times in 2012). I mean, who knows..the two may not have anything to do with each other at all.. whatsoever.. but then again, it sure is quite a coincidence IMO.


I mean, who knows for sure.. maybe this is that start of the "End". Never can be for sure.. that's the part that worries me.

Do not fear when the world will end my friend as NO ONE knows when the world will end BUT GOD! Think about it this way. It has been the beginning of the end since the beginning of time! So put your faith in GOD and walk in his light so that you may join in the legions of angels for the final battle of good vs evil and become one of GODS soldiers!

im shocked at how many people are falling for this whole bullshit storm .....Shadow Governments , Bankers and Mainstream Media with agenda's focused on control of world power are the people behind ALL of this .... Bin Laden was just an asset used to facilitate any attacks that needed to be carried out in order to manipulate the public into backing them into war .

I'm not here saying " I know better "...or " I know more " .... I'm saying that thru years of following this whole story one thing has become very clear ... We are being lied to !

The coming weeks will see more activity and more death ....and we will all be told its Bin Ladens fault ... and over time the arrows will point to Iran and we will all be asked to back them into a war ...and most will support it based on the Bin Laden Lie .


For anyone wanting to know more .... Google Tim Osman OR False Flag Operations

Peace

vento have you ever thought that if osama was created by the US to allow them to falsly attacked innocent governments. Have you ever wondered why they didnt use him as an excuse to attack iraq. your whole theory makes little sense.

I don't want to turn this into an argument .. but i think you misunderstood me ....He was not used to attack innocent governments .... He is used as en excuse for US to have to go in and get them out ... So in effect .. Yes Osama was used ... But used as the bad guy that needs to be removed ...Is that more clear ?

Remember to that the world was told that Saddam was a supporter of Al Qaeda and funded them ....it was later proved that he was against them .

Im not trying to change minds .... i would just like to offer people another view to the one that we are told by governments and media .


EDIT : I just want to point out what i have said is based on fact ...Not theory ( i almost missed that comment )

We kill Bin. Then we let another terrorist attack happen just like 9/11 except this time the "terrorists" are from a different middle eastern country. Now they once again get the people of the US to back the invasion of another country for monetary reasons. callin it right now

Good call ... Iraq and afghanistan invasions was never about Bin Laden ... he's just a face to show the public ..... they want Iraq and afghanistan as forward bases to train troops for the coming planned attacks on Iran .

Clinton is allready saying " We will not be withdrawing " .

Ghaddafi could be the next face

Now come the conspiracy theorists to discredit the US operation.... lol...

I'm not at all surprised....

Actually the incursion into Afghanistan was a DIRECT result of the Taliban harboring bin Laden. Unless you have hard evidence otherwise, you are just blowing steam....

The Gan invasion was due to Bin Laden...yur right.. Iraq was for "WDM's". The was no other "official" reasons.

I do remember the Bush administration making claims that Al-Qaeda had close contacts and support from Saddam, who ironically was very secular, not at all principled in Islam. I recall Collin Powell was later upset that he was given that as intel to report to the UN when it was unfounded. He questioned it and several pieces of "intel" and their sources. It was one of the prime reasons for announcing he would not be staying on if G bush won another election.

it also makes it easy and convenient for obama to take office for another 4 fucking years. IMO he is either still alive or has been dead for years. where the fuck if the pic of him with a bullet in his head? or anything of fact to believe?
they claim they captured and killed him now only to keep obama in office, this way the real people who run the usa and every thing else dont have to train yet another puppet to do what they want and say what they want them to say. you guys dont thin kit is odd that they killed him so close to election? now every one thinks he is a hero again and will vote for his ass. bush did a better job then Obama bin laden, he should have been the one catpured

WOW!! It's not about conspiracy theorists bruh. What I can't believe is the people who actually "believe" the government that straight up fucking LIED TO NOT ONLY THE UNITED STATES, BUT TO THE WORLD about WMD's in Iraq to invade. Found nothing, killed the Leader (and thousands of people), and we are still there.. You have nothing to stand on to call people conspiracy theorists man. Some people are not scared to think on their own, and do hours of research looking for answers.

This same so called government spent more money investigating Bill Clinton getting some head then they did on the 911 investigation. The largest attack on American soil was put to rest so easy, and hmmm so quietly really.lol
