Just using the "play on words" option, I would say that they went to hell and back on this one and that :reddevil:lucifer:reddevil: is DEAD! :hurray:

That's an interesting way to look at it, but from the USA claimed from the first announcement that it was a 100% American operation, done without the consent or knowledge or Pakistan. Given Pakistan's fickleness, it was probably the only way this would have ever gotten done.

Not that I can remember any specific arabic names, but I do recall on several occasions there being announced a "number two" Al Quaida guy being captured, and certain savvy, if not mainstream, media sources debunking any claim that the guy captured was any big whoop. Yes, there does need to be an enemy, and there needs to be a catharsis like that which happened last night into this morning. Another face will be put in as a new Al Quaida #1, or, there will be a new group to replace Al Quaida. It is the only way to continue to garner public support on a war on terror- you need something or someone as a posterboy/target to give people a sense that there is an ultimate conclusion in sight. Even if there really isn't.

We don't need a bad guy there are bad guys everywhere. Pakistanis polled five years ago supported osama bin laden with a fifty percent approval rating! That is higher than most presidents can achieve! The current really bad guy is Anwar Al Alaki. He is hiding in Yemen and was responsible for the Christmas day attack if I am not mistaken.
The US makes some mistakes but we are not an evil regime like the Iranians and don't make our women cover their faces in shame and refuse to allow them to go to school, take a job, or own property even if their husband dies.

My mom read online that someone found on Osama's computer that for the 10th year after 9/11 he planned out with some terrorists here to cut some train tracks this year 9/11which will make the train turn upside down...I don't know how true this is but it's scary... It said that everything was already planned out...

Yeah I read about that also. He was going to give us a little ten year anniversary present. Hopefully Osama's death will discourage Al-Qaeda from planning or executing any terrorism, but I kind of doubt that will happen. We have reawakened a beast.
