Goddammit, you incompetent cretins. Now you have given the tinfoil-hats material for the next 30-40 years or so.

Conspiracy theorists add to the fun of the internet. OBL-as-seafood is a great ending for the PoS in my opinion.

If I had a giant facepalm picture I'd post it.

 

I guess that they want those nutters to keep going strong for whatever reason.

 

On the subject at hand, I much doubt this'll have any actual effect on anything, maybe prompting some more "retalliation" attacks or whatever.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Muslims have to be buried within 24 hours of their death. They asked the Saudis to take the body, they said no (don't blame them). So do they (a) give more grist to the grievance mill or (b) dump him at sea and give the world's tinfoil hat brigade a boner?

 

It's a lose / lose. Never mind, the bastard is dead, kudos the the US Navy SEALs.

Does any non-american care about this?

 

I know that I don't care and most likely never will. Also I can't understand why everyone is going party in america, just because that dude got killed. Seriously, it's not like he was Hitler and had konzentration camps in the US of A.

They think it reinforces how cool and awesome they are, and that they really are the worldpolice and can do no wrong?

Why not put his corpse on display, then dispose of it. All the jubilation is a bit amusing though, heh, one guy gets shot in the head.

As for not celebrating. Seriously?

 

You want to mourn this over-priviledged psychotic messiah wannabe then go right ahead. But you can do it after you hold a candlelit vigil for the thousands of Americans and tens of thousands of Iraqis and Afghans and Pakistanis and Indonesians... dead because of his poisonous lunacy. After you do that, feel free to shed your tears. Or I may be tempted to think you are simply revelling in an opportunity to strike a saintly pose of noble understanding, rather than any actual emotion.

Yes, there will be others after Bin Laden. Yes, there are already people actually running Al Qaeda. Yes, AlQ is more than an organisation, it is a racist, delusional, and hateful philosophy that can't be struck out with a bullet. But this operation has proved that nothing will ever stop the Yanks from getting their man, if you p*ss them off enough. It is going to have a pleasing notional impact on how well the ****ers sleep at night, and a practical impact on their having to try and increase their security even further.

Wait, not celebrating is mourning ?

:) Fair point. However i'm suggesting Bin Laden was a kind of geopolitical marmite. There's no-one kind of "Yeah, I'll have him round for tea, but he's not staying for supper."

Celebrating the death of someone is not what civilized and moral people do. You can feel relief and a sense that justice has been carried out, but going all "The bitch is dead! let's throw a parade!" is just really distasteful.

It's worse than conspiracy nuts, now Al-Qaeda and every other islamic nutbag outfit can go on claiming that Bin Laden is alive and well. It's not like they could have pissed off the jihadists MORE by brining the body to the US for a thorough identification and autopsy. "Yeah, it was bad that these kuffar bastards murdered out glorious leader but that they didnt bury him within 24h really ticks me off!"

Kaft, are you seriously suggesting that Islamists are going to get more angry with the US now?

 

I dare you to say that again, with a straight face.
