Re: *Breaking* Bin Laden is Dead
Just finished listening/watching to President Obama give a statement. It had a nice ending, but over all, I wasn't impressed. I didn't hear any emotion or anything, and for the few minutes that I did watch, he was staring straight as if looking into a teleprompter.

Yep. And in our best interests, as well. Assassinating the guy who assassinated bin Laden would be a big deal for an Al Qaeda operative.03Lightningrocks wrote:He or she might be better served if that information is never released.Skiprr wrote:I wonder if we'll ever get the ID of that soldier...03Lightningrocks wrote:How cool would it be to have been the one who got to pull the trigger on Bin Laden?

Re: *Breaking* Bin Laden is Dead
That is true, but killing Americans in general works just as revenge for them, and as many as they possibly can. I wouldn't want to be an American over seas right now.Skiprr wrote:Yep.

Re: *Breaking* Bin Laden is Dead
Heck Yeah! Great news this evening.
I'm a civilian and just want to relay my sincere pride for all of our troops. Our military is the best in the world. Today they successfully completed a mission that many people worldwide thought was impossible. Thank you so much to everyone who has served our country.

Or it might make them think, "Geez, if they can get to him, nobody is safe."BLG wrote:If he had died of disease or accident, there might have been less potential for him to become a sort of martyr. If the leadership of Al Qaeda has been crippled as reported recently, that might not make much difference,anyway. On the other hand, it might solidify any factions or inspire some that have lost a little enthusiasm

Thanks to our Military Professionals the 'Ability' to take out Bin Laden has existed in both administrations, neither can take all the credit for his demise.
The ONLY thing preventing his death previous to now was knowing WHERE he was. End of story.
