All I can say is good riddance, and hopefully it brings closure to the families of 9/11.

I wonder how he died, did they kill him or?

Guy:Incognito

Hang on a second, is it a coincidence that he is killed on the same day pope john paul came back to life?

Are we witnesses the second coming of the popenator?

Celebrity Apprentice is being preempted for this announcement in America. Obama obviously saw the threat posed by Trump.

This might have been mildly interesting nine years ago.

Associated press says he was killed by a bomb last week, the delay in confirmation was due to DNA testing to be absolutely sure. No location as to where the bomb was deployed yet.

LOL at the Yanks on Fox; "al-Qaeda will want to negotiate." Eh, what? How much control do they think that he actually did.

I think we can all agree this is a MASSIVE story!

Aoifey!

So I'm guessing RIP doesn't apply here?

Guy:Incognito

How long before new "previously unseen material" gets released and then constant rehashings under the guise of "remastered" gets pumped out for profit by greedy family members? It's Tupac all over again.

Well on Fox they seem to think that al Qaeda will now cease to function. Amazing that he had all that control without getting caught, I can't make a phonecall without it being logged in half a dozen different places.

The problem is not always the beard, it's often the evil 'tach that lives above it.

I fail to see why they'd cease to function because Osama is gone.
Surely someone can fill his sandals.

You need to start using phoneboxes in Afgan caves, they are much more secure.

Bin Laiden was so 2001

People are actually starting to disbelieve this 'war on terror' - No doubt somebody elese we never heard of but is responsible for some terrorist attack somewhere is just going to be the next target!

According to SKY NEWS, he was killed by an American bomb.

I know, I'm just finding the barely held back jubilation from the yanks hilarious and how they're saying several things that make no sense whatsoever.


Sky News didn't take too long to put up pictures of the towers after the planes hit.:rolleyes:

strokemyclover

Only in After Hours could a wild dogger report Osama Bin Laden's death

Will this development win the next Presidental election for Obama?

TBH, I still just can't get over my 'fill his sandals' line. :pac:

Also, convenient that this comes out near re-election and in time for the ten year September 11th anniversary.

Anyone who can, switch on Fox News. It's fcukin hilarious.

He spent last night ttp out of Trump and tonight the news is leaked in time to get Celebrity Apprentice off for the night. Looks like he's planning already.

Chuck Stone

If US forces have killed him he'll become a mythical martyr.

Osama wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

Dazza Mc kenna

he was killed in a drowe strike, according to Al Jazeera
