Can't find much about it yet, but word is that we have his body.
It's a major milestone, but I'm not sure his death will change much. He was an organizational mastermind, if I'm correct, and not just a figurehead. Al Queda will hurt after this. Not die out, not go away, but they will hurt.

You bastard beat me to it!!

Anyways... party today!

Hear so far that its a head shot




President speaks in a few minutes

Small team went in and killed him.


No American Causalities.



GG everyone

Just waiting for more 9/11 now...

Seems a U.S Navy seal team went in and tried to capture him.



Was shot a few times, at least a shot to the head is confirmed.

fuck yeah Navy Seals


I wonder why everywhere said predator missile

Assumed because its our favorite tactic.

Because the media makes shit up...

And think of all the nutty little conspiracy theorists who claimed that the US had already killed OBL. What are they to say now?

Meh, they'll just carry on as usual, the nattering nabobs of negativism.
Seriously, hats off to our men in matte black and camo.

Game Over

America wins

Heh. Just went outside and screamed "HAMMER! HAMMER! HAMMER! HAMMER!"
Felt good.

At the end of the day, Osama shouldnt of used his real address for PSN.

pics for proof

Obama wouldn't have made a statement if he wasn't dead.

Even though it's unlikely going to stop Al Quededa as I doubt he'd been actively running the organization for quite some time, this is a massive moral boost for the allies and a huge blow to them.

We might see some revenge attacks in the next few weeks.

Overall great news.

political showboating. Time to start thinking about elections. General support for the war would go up with the news.

There would be pictures if the story was true. Period.

al queda hasn't been doing anything period.

We're at FPCON Bravo here.

Cuz the media plays waaaay too much Call of Duty.

the problem with a predator missile is that kills are ridiculously hard to confirm.

Osama didn't realize that the US team had scouted his secret expansion with an Observer. Too bad he hadn't put up any Photon Cannons.

Pictures of what could be Osama's hideout. Waiting for it to pop up on Google Earth.

In addition, a fake photo of a dead Osama Bin Ladin is floating around the internet. Got to give 'em credit; whoever made it is frickin' fast.

The SEAL team was plan B, we were going to bomb the compound but the civilian casualties would have been too great. He's dead, along with his eldest son, but everyones on high alert now.

I thought they buried him at sea though because it's Islamic tradition to bury a dead body within one day.

They've been reporting they buried him at sea while upholding all Islamic Tradition in the process. They considered burying him on land somewhere, but thought it would be too difficult and believed it would become a pilgrimage and rallying site for sympathizers.

Ah yes, great news indeed.
