The raid happened, it is remotely possible Osama was not there, but the raid happened. Two people can keep a secret, but only if one of them is dead. imagine how hard it would be to control the loose lips of thousands of people. Many of which have no involvement in government at all, and most of which probably would not **** on America if it was on fire. Yet somehow these same people are going to do the US a favour and keep schtum? |

One could ask (without turning this into aslanging match) what evidence do you have that it occured? As much as i believe a raid occured.... I dont know who it was that was killed or captured in the raid. Supposedly he was unarmed and he was shot dead in cold blood. (The orginal story of him being armed changed because that would see him as being killed fighting the infiedel Americans) Bear in mind that the story wasnt released to the media some 7days after it occured and was apparently watched LIVE by the President. Now why the official story? With another official story... then say he was dumped at see? What DNA did they use? the DNA they had on file possibly from when he was paid and trained by the CIA in the 1980s to fight the Russians in Afghanistan? How about the story by a pakistani news paper he was dead in 2006 from Thypoid? Not to mention the Saudis also agreed back in 2006 he was dead... Or the fact he needed a transplant because his kidney was failing and needed to be hooked up to a dialisis machine once in a while? this was known as far back as 2000. Or the fact the US government has pulled some pretty big lies in the past... not to mention support "terrorists" er freedom fighters... or supplied weapons to dictators? or money? or controlled poppy fields.... Too many unanswered questions and too many wierd and wonderful stories. For all we know is the new stealth chopper could be part of the ruse to make it appear more believable...

I just don't like keyboard warriors with baseless thoughts. I merely asked the previous poster to back his point and his/her silence has givin the answer. These are complex issues and no doubt just like yourself I read the news very closely and it was evident how the story was changing by the Hour. OBL death brings no end and if anything has provoke the Terrorist. More death of Inocent civiliance and Forces. If he was unarmed they could have got him Alive and someone as Elite Team 6 would not have had any difficulity. However things would been more "messy" so with his death they have silent the questions and left door open for conspiracy theories. Other reason why the poster provoked me to question the legitimacy of his/her claim is becuase " If " the raid did happen then Frankly its Very Disrespectful to Soldiers who Risked theirs lives and have been doing so for our saftey and getting rid of these scums in our society. Cheers H

So all we have is logic, and common sense amid media reporting and media hyperbole and conspiracy nuts and the official account. If you think about the people involved, CIA and various US officials, the SEAL team themselves, Al Q, Pakistan Government, Pakistani citizens (both friend and foe) and well anyone else you can think of. So all of those groups of people would have to be in on a conspiracy to even come close to getting away with it for a week. Then we have the problem of people keeping their mouths shut. Someone always tells their wife/hooker/friend at the pub, and the odds of that increase in correlation with the number of people who could tell us something. And in this situation, theres lots of them. There is far more than it would take to pull off a fake moon landing, and the same logic says that faking a moon landing and getting away with it would be impossible. So how many people are we talking about, and what are the odds all will play nice despite being devout enemies, let alone keep their mouths shut? Pakistan and Saudi Arabia back in 2006 had good reason to claim he was dead. Appease the US populace so as not to incite 'W' to send in troops, among many other localised political reasons. You can survive on dialysis for quite some time. He wasnt in a cave, and he could easily have access to one, or even got a transplant from a friendlier source. Again, not in some cave in 'Bumrape' Afghanistan. Im just saying the diagnosis of imminent kidney failure is not an argument he cant have been alive. The 'far too many questions' you refer too are in themselves fanciful. The DNA they used was from his sister, who had surgery (some illness was treated) in the US some time earlier. Im not certain of this, cant be bothered to look it up, but I think she died in the US too. As for being unarmed, the other bodyguards in the home wee not unarmed, and a gunfight had started. He was known to at least organise hits on thousands of people at a time. A double tap would be the first option I would pick, if things got even a tad wild. He may not have been armed but who knows what devices or other means they had improvised in the house. Kill him, and it becomes a battle of survival for the bodyguards rather than an attempt to free Osama, and the US avoids having to keep spending a fortune hunting him. If this was a bank robber, Id agree a double tap of an unarmed man is over the top, but for the worlds number one terrorist? Nope. These are just my opinion.

NATO has indeed confirmed the Chinook was shot down.
Must have been one hell of a lucky shot to do it with an RPG.

an RPG is stealthy... it uses the MK1 eyeball to aim. Therefor it produces no warning that someone is aiming at you. Its purely a line of sight weapon which just fires a rocket. Totally unguided. The bit about the 22 members being the actual people in raid I havent heard on any news report. The only reports i have heard is that they were members of the same team and that NONE were actual members of the so called Bin Laden raid... http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-08-0...-crash/2827780 Quote:

All the reports i have heard, have said that although the people killed were SEAL Team 6, they were not the same team that killed OBL

Very lucky shot indeed! |

I dont really know enough about these types of units, but I imagine with the type of training they arent all that common compared to other soldier numbers, and splitting effective teams up is probably not something that happens all the time, so its likely that many members of a unit used in a previous 'event' would be in the one place if something were to go wrong at later 'events'. I could be wrong. |

As far as I'm concerned US is not doing anywhere near enough in Syria and Iraq, Jordan inflicted much more damage on ISIS in three days than the US did in months. US is just playing games.

When we do something we're imperialists; when we don't we're just playing games.

1S1S (and A1 Queda), are a construct of the global corporate mafia.
Like Sep. ll, there is far more evidence to support this so-called 'conspiracy' than to support the hogwash we are fed by Murdoch and Co. Do some research. http://www.globalresearch.ca/greater...e-east/5324815 |
