I'm not sure if this is fully accurate since the Government likes to screw around with us, but if it is, it's about time! That A-Hole killed too many innocent people.

Oops, im too late then, Someone delete this topic please.

I'm gonna call for both threads to stay up.

The demise of OBL is both an excuse for politlcal bickering, but it's also a significant event in pop culture.  Everyone remembers where they were when 9/11 happened.  Everyone will remember where they were tonight.

(Me?  I was checking the news - silver blew up this afternoon, meh, figure it out in the morning.  What's going on on Fark?  WTF?  Brand-new 300+-post thread on President to address nation on "national security issue" at 10:30 pm on a Sunday?  Twitter going ape-poop with military bases raising protection levels?  Tomorrow was gonna suck anyways, and on top of this, the world's about to end.  Pop open a bunch more tabs, flip on the TV, start scanning.

The next 30 seconds went like:  (a) D00d, you be trollin'  (b) Holy crap.  Not only was d00d not trolling, but (c) OBL was still alive all this time, and (d) we actually got the bastard?  (e) AMERICA, FARK YEAH!  (f) Grab beer!

Where were you when you found out / How did you find out that OBL was pwn3d?

Gotta tell you what I just heard,
There's gonna be a party all over the world!

But I see these people tweetin' all over the world...
All over the world,
Everybody got the word?
Everybody everywhere is gonna feel tonight!

And yes, it's official!  http://isosamabinladendead.com confirms it.

Bin Laden killed by the US, autotune killed by Rebecca black . Is this ,at last, the end of the 00's ?

Those kids are probably my age or younger. They were probably preteens when 9/11 happened. I'm pretty sure they're old enough to remember 9/11.

Well, the economy still is deep in the stinker.  :-\\

Where were you when you found out / How did you find out that OBL was pwn3d?


I was eating breakfast listening to the 9 o'clock news on BBC Radio 2.  It is a holiday in the UK today so I didn't have to be in work.  The news was announced by Obama at around 4.30 a.m. UK time so I'm guessing not many people in the UK heard the original announcement.

At home, waiting for the kettle to boil for tea, switching on the television, for the news.

I'm glad they finally killed that motherfudger,now he can go sleep with the worms!  >:(

I turned on the TV and saw it last night.

I wish I could have been at the celebrations. It's too bad I'm nowhere near them.  It's about time he was found and something was actually done about it. I was in my high school math class when 911 happened so I definitely remember that dark day in history.

Took us nearly ten years to get the bastard, but we got him. This truly is a new decade.

Most of the people looked very young, like between 21-23!

Lol everyone would look at me funny if I was at those celebrations. It would feel awkward being a 14 year old(15 tomorrow though) being in a crowd with a bunch of grown men and women.  Oh, And I was only 5 when 9/11 happened, but I can remember it, I just didn't understand it's significance at the time.

Steam but I wouldn't kiss him goodbye,KILL him goodbye is more like it!

Now let's see if we can get rid of Momar Quidafy.

Had to work waaaaaaay early this morning so I was in bed when the news broke, and I found out when I checked my phone to get on here and FB when I was a headline that said "Bin Laden Dead."

Needless to say I went out and turned on my TV and watched for about 5 minutes before I left for work but haven't really had much of a chance to watch since then.

I guess it's time now to cast the biopic:

a. It wasn't his wife
b. The woman that was shot and died got caught in a crossfire in another part of the building
c. It's not (yet) certain she was being used as a human shield to protect anyone

  I think Steve Martin looks more like Mr. No Spin...

A good choice for Saddam Hussein would be an actor named Jerry Haleva.  In the 90s, he made a career out of playing Saddam in films like 'Hot Shots', 'Hot Shots: Part Deux' and 'The Big Lebowski'

http://www.edrants.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/haleva.jpg


Or if they cannot get him, how about the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld?

http://www.seinfeldscripts.com/images/soupnazi.jpg

A g ood choice to play Osama Bin Laden would be the actor Cliff Curtis.  He already has the experience, playing a terrorist in the Schwarzenegger flick 'Collateral Damage'

That's not bad either.

do any of you guys question all this? or do you believe automatically what our 'Great Leaders' tell us lol

Well, wouldn't it look bad for the US government if Osama just appeared on TV again? Or was on the news for killing/bombing other people? I guess that's a few reasons to think the 'Great Leaders' are being honest.

But I gotta admit, some of it is suspicious.

Actually I'm saying I think it's highly possible (probable even) that he died 5 or even 10 years ago and the whole story is a lie. Or, they knew where his mansion was, but didn't kill him until the time was politically strategic.

The evidence Osama was behind 9/11 is far from compelling too. Especially when you consider the videos of his admissions are all probable fakes.
