Osama Bin Laden is Dead

Should have sent a few cruise missiles over to blow up the rest of the helicopter.
That would have likely killed many innocent people.


If you are in Osama's house then too fucking bad.

The Pakistanis are not our friends, they will use the tech in the helicopter and then give it to China. Fuck the "innocent" people in the terrorists' house and blow the fuck out of our top secret helicopter.
 
Bin Laden isn't dead. His death was faked, and right now he is tortured in a secret location somewhere in Eastern Europe because he as the leader of Al Qaeda is a much greater source of information than any of his henchmen could have ever been.

I saw it in that one movie.

Tell me, are you a 9/11 Truther too?

Because that sounds like a good movie too.

"Deathers" is the new term for these people.

They include crazy nutball Alex Jones, former antiwar darling Cindy "I was crazy way back in 2003, but only some of you knew it" Sheehan.
"I am sorry, but if you believe the newest death of OBL, you're stupid. Just think to yourself--they paraded Saddam's dead sons around to prove they were dead--why do you suppose they hastily buried this version of OBL at sea? This lying, murderous Empire can only exist with your brainwashed consent--just put your flags away and THINK!"​

Well, that didn't take long, did it? "Deathers"... :guffaw:

Wait, they're serious, are they? Figures. :rolleyes:

Dude, they could have preserved bin Laden's body and displayed it in a glass sarcophagus, like Lenin's, and there would still be people claiming it wasn't really him.

Bin Laden was dead. It was no longer his house.

The Navy Seals already blew up the helicopter and the people checking out the compound after our raid were not proven terrorists. So killing scores of people without proven cause to blow up something that had already been blown up will only lead to more people convinced that Bin Laden was right. If you have a problem with the Chinese gaining info on our technology, you should be more concerned with our industrial base being moved there.
 
An unnamed Pakistani intelligence officer is saying that Pakistani Intelligence actually raided the compound bin Laden would later live in while it was under construction in 2003 in search of another al Qaeda leader who was living there (they missed him at the time, but he was captured two years later).

If that's true, not only were they well aware of the compound itself, they were well aware that it was built as an al Qaeda safe house.

The fact that bin Laden felt safe enough to live in a house that had already been "raided" leads me to think he was pretty confident that he had some serious control over the ISI.

Everyone is overlooking this too, he was a world-wanted terrorist and had no security force at his compound. So that meant he was confident that the ISI and Paki military was his security force.
 
Bin Laden is dead.

If he were alive the first thing he would do is release a video of himself reading today's newspaper and laughing. This would make the USA look ridiculous, make him appear immortal to his followers and spark as much fanatic's anger as if he'd died.

This wouldn't put him in any danger. He wouldn't be safer if most of the world thought he was dead, because most of the world isn't leaving their living rooms. The people who knew he was alive, like Obama, would keep looking.

It's possible he died last year of syphilis and this SEAL raid was fake. But even so, he's dead.

The safe house is in the middle of a neighborhood. Cruise missiles would certainly have done considerable damage to nearby areas. After the incident people from the neighborhood would gather round the property area to gawk and see what all the fuss was about. Cruse missile into a crowd is not a good thing. It is very likely that the average person, ie. one who would be killed by said missile, would have no idea who was there beforehand. Thus innocent.

The SEALs were inserted on a stealthy special forces variant of the Blackhawk helicopter. This is the remains of the one that crash landed and was destroyed by the SEALs.

Pretty sweet.
It is very interesting. But be aware that the lower concept art is just one person's educated guess as to how the rest of the helicopter looks (with very little info). Reality could be completely different.

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought the vague lines of the speculative drawing of the secret helicopter variant based solely on pictures of a destroyed tail section would be 100% conclusive. :p
 
It seems people here don't seem to understand the Seals blew up some of the helicopter and now we want the helicopter back. Should have blown it up bettter. The people over there already hate us, we should have invade them 9.5 years ago. Fuck a few "innocent" lives, keep the helicopter secret.

Anyone else find the "Imageworm" logo somewhat.... phallic?

You think we should have invaded a Sovereign State who have nuclear weapons?

Did you even give that statement a second's thought before inflicting it on us? :lol:
