Re: Bin Laden

Watching this on CNN right now

Re: Bin Laden

what do you think the implications are going to be?

Nothing, a Few will get mad and do a few things maybe, but nothing else is going to change, In fact "IF" he really Was in a active Leadership role than we might see a sicker ever more brutal one come up in his place,

But honestly they don't have a command structure like a army and so this really wont do much IMO

EDIT: It will be more of a feather in Obama's hat rather than any Real Positive Advancement

None other than that im sure it will break up his supporting groups in the area. Its a victory....hopefully worth the trillions of dollars that it cost.

I'm guessing they had him all this time at Guantanamo bay. Ya, I'm a conspiracy junkie.

Yeah we hope so.


What we really dont want is to find out all of a sudden it wasn't actually him. That would cause some unrest.

Trillions might have been an exaggeration now that I think about it. Looks like the "war on terror" has cost about 1 trillion (1,000,000,000,000).

I would imagine they are quite sure. The president is supposed to make the announcement soon and they dont take such public actions lightly.

So much for hiding in caves.. found him in a mansion?

No ones going to Go, "Ah man they got our Leader (Assuming hes even in a active leadership role) Lets Quit"...

Honestly Think About It, This will be seen as a Martyr to anyone who's loyal to there Cause. The War Needs Some New Excuses to keep the US there, And with this they can now say they are accomplishing something....


EDIT: no You were right the 1st time Helios, the war on terror has cost a few trillions by now , they just don't like adding them all together. You have to add more than just what we have paid so far, All the Veterans payments that will be paid to the soldiers and there medical For some reason they never like adding that into it, when it is a direct cost of the war. they act like that just pops outta thin air and doesn't add to the war costs. + you gotta add all the other operations that aren't Directly Afghanistan or Iraq.


It's Hilarious how they come up with the ##'s like the Death Tolls. They ship out as many solders out of the war zone to give them medical attention as Possible, and they don't count them as a Afghanistan Death if there 1 inch over the boarder. They don't add all the other operations into the War On Terror out side of Afghanistan and Iraq so it makes there #'s look better so the American people can Eat it Up and Feel Better...

I think his followers are real pissed and will be readying their agenda. Meanwhile I'm thinking about about dumping 4-30 rnd mags through the AR to celebrate!

I agree that they won't say "they got our leader let's quit" but it may dishearten SOME of them. Also without the leadership figure it may fragment the previously (however slightly) organized group. They may have multiples grab for power. I figure that it's not organized and may end up being a pretty big move.

tim osman died?

so the war on terror is over and i get my liberties back?
lol

Nothing good will come from this IMO. This will Just Piss off alot of his followers and try to get back at us.

At least before everything was somewhat under control. Now who know what is going to happen.

There is never Just one leader. There is always the Runner up and so On.

I say Kill them all.:gun:

Thats coming from someone that was in the military for 6 years.

Lol These people see it as a Religious Martyr. He is going to heaven as far as there concerned and the fact that he died for the cause as it were, They will be more embolden. He wasn't a Official Leader, he was just one of the Big Guys they liked. It will bring more into it instead of make any Quit.



EDIT: @lazeerer You Can't Kill a Idea. Do you Honestly Believe you could Kill them All... as it were? This will be a On going issue with out a True End.

I am not into the conspiracy, but I wouldn't be surprised if he has been dead for years and the government just needed an excuse to be over there.

I called my pops and he was like, "Yeah they pulled him out of the freezer" lol
