Topic: Toonces Makes Late Night National Address (Bin Laden Is DEAD)

[Libertas]

I am sure they anticipated the conspiracy theories and have documented evidence of his body. Personally I wanted it to be thrown into a hog pen, videoed, and broadcast throughout the 'slim world. At least by dumping it into the ocean no particular area will become a shrine.

Navy SEALs again prove their badassery.

I'm a little disappointed in the "buried according to Islamic practice" statement, but no specifics were offered beyond he was buried (at sea) "within 24" hours of death.  Part of me hopes he was otherwise defiled.  But another evil guy is dead, and that is a good thing.  But I hope someone stuck a syringe full of raw pigs plug into his ass!  No shrine is good, and if the scuzlims go nuts and lash out, so much the better...like smoking out bees...start pickin' 'em off!

My brother sent me a text message last night when he heard the news, said UBL was dead, I replied he was dead at birth, his body merely caught up to him at last.

I'm glad he's dead, but my elation is dampened by the fact that we knew he was in Pakistan and as such had to have help from Pakistani's to stay there...that it took so long to get him is annoying as hell and illustrates how a lack of intelligence and resolve in our political leadership and kowtowing to political sideshows can tie our own hands.

I'm proud of my Navy and their role in taking this evil bastard down.  It is the soldiers, sailors, flyboys and marines that deserve to celebrate and we should celebrate them for all they have done for us!  Politicians who have done nothing deserve no thanks, they have not done all that they could do to assist our service members.  This is a military victory, not a political victory, period!

Well done my brethren!

Kicked out the back of a C-130 over the Indian Ocean ?

Even if the Pershing tale is an urban legend, that's how it should be done

[Sectionhand]

I dunno ... Sounds like something Pershing would have done .

[IronDioPriest]

Dare I say that public announcement of bin Laden's killing is likely to bring martyrs out of the woodwork, and that Obama is already planning on how to take advantage of it against the American people?

It would have perhaps been better to let him just be dead, let the taped messages just stop, and leave the Jihadis to wonder.

Yeah ... I forgot about Pershing during the Maori Insurrection .

The Moro Rebellion.  The Maori are from New Zealand.

No apologies necessary.  It's just the pedantic @sshole historian in me.  And I only got worse after listening to the historically illiterate revisionist jackwad occupying the Oval Office.

All this nonsense about handling the body properly is political BS.The IDd the body and tossed it into the sea,how many slims are burried at sea?They tossed his ass overboard like garbage which is proper as far as I'm concrened and the can't use the body to make a saint out of his ass.

 They will soon come out and deni that we got his carcass because they don't have his body.He died hiding and hunted but the key word is died!!From reports they have been watching this compound for over 4 years and got the info from prisoner(s) in Quantanimo and it took all this time to nail him and it was worth every second it took.

 He's dead and may he rot in HELL!!And I hope some sailor stuck a pork chop on his ass!!

Interesting twitter feed from a Pakistani resident awoken by helicopters.

Anyone worried that Toonces is going to be re-elected because of this undeniable victory should remember some recent history.

After the first Gulf War President George H. W. Bush had an approval rating in the 89% range...unheard of popularity for any president. It was in February 1991. In November of 1992 he lost his re-election bid to Clinton. He was aided in his loss by the petulant little bastard Perot, true, but the really big factor was the economy. And it wasn't even close to what we have gone through already and what we are still going through.

Any gain in popularity will be brief and will not carry through to November 2012. The public's memory is brief in areas such as this. Even with the help of the MFM.

I'm so very proud of our armed forces on a job well done. 

I've heard that Osama was finally caught due to intelligence gathered from interogating a Gitmo detainee who pinpointed the trusted courier,and turned out to be housing Osama in Pakistan.

I'm anticipating some leftie asking me if I'm proud of Obama, and I'll say if Obama gives credit to Gitmo interrogation officers, I'll give him credit for giving the kill command.

From FNC. Full story here.

WASHINGTON –  Helicopters descended out of darkness on the most important counterterrorism mission in U.S. history. It was an operation so secret, only a select few U.S. officials knew what was about to happen.

The location was a fortified compound in an affluent Pakistani town two hours outside Islamabad. The target was Usama bin Laden.

Intelligence officials discovered the compound in August while monitoring an Al Qaeda courier. The CIA had been hunting that courier for years, ever since detainees told interrogators that the courier was so trusted by bin Laden that he might very well be living with the Al Qaeda leader.

Nestled in an affluent neighborhood, the compound was surrounded by walls as high as 18 feet, topped with barbed wire. Two security gates guarded the only way in. A third-floor terrace was shielded by a seven-foot privacy wall. No phone lines or Internet cables ran to the property. The residents burned their garbage rather than put it out for collection. Intelligence officials believed the million-dollar compound was built five years ago to protect a major terrorist figure. The question was, who?
The CIA asked itself again and again who might be living behind those walls. Each time, they concluded it was almost certainly bin Laden.

President Barack Obama described the operation in broad strokes Sunday night. Details were provided in interviews with counterterrorism and intelligence authorities, senior administration officials and other U.S. officials. All spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive operation.

By mid-February, intelligence from multiple sources was clear enough that Obama wanted to "pursue an aggressive course of action," a senior administration official said. Over the next two and a half months, Obama led five meetings of the National Security Council focused solely on whether bin Laden was in that compound and, if so, how to get him, the official said.

Normally, the U.S. shares its counterterrorism intelligence widely with trusted allies in Britain, Canada, Australia and elsewhere. And the U.S. normally does not carry out ground operations inside Pakistan without collaboration with Pakistani intelligence. But this mission was too important and too secretive.

On April 29, Obama approved an operation to kill bin Laden. It was a mission that required surgical accuracy, even more precision than could be delivered by the government's sophisticated Predator drones. To execute it, Obama tapped a small contingent of the Navy's elite SEAL Team Six and put them under the command of CIA Director Leon Panetta, whose analysts monitored the compound from afar.

Read the posting by Ace. He infers from the WaPo article that the intelligence came from two sources. One was KSM and the other was "Abd al-Hadi al-Iraqi, a former major in Saddam Hussein’s army" both of whom reside at Club Gitmo.

I am sure that more info will be forthcoming as "anonymous sources" inside the notoriously amateurish administration blab to their friends in the MFM.

Gitmo vindicated

Another accomplishment Six can add to their resume.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

Gitmo vindicated

GWB/Cheney vindicated...enhanced interrogation techniques vindicated...but don't expect to hear about it any time soon. That's not the way it works.

[trapeze]

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

Actually, if they have any brains at all, that's the last thing they should claim. Any retaliation at all would nullify a "mission accomplished" statement. They're pretty stupid but I don't think they are THAT stupid as to forget how they beat the sh*t out of GWB for years over a sign on a carrier that he had nothing to do with.
