two ways this can go..
1. his not dead;
there's no body, just here say about dna, a film of some blood and something about dumping the body at sea. so it's most likely a lie. maybe to take the heat off the us government and make obumer look good for voters and all that rubbish.
2. they did kill him;
they needed him dead because he may have told a different story to one the governments have said over the years. human beings are simpletons remember, believe anything.

Osama was the leader of Al-Qaeda, the group that kidnaps people and cut their heads, promotes the throwing of acid at little girls because they're going to school and hang women publicly because they want an education. All things that are really happening in that part of the world. You don't need proof. People with conspiracy theories are so delusional.
I agree that those things are not good. But I don't see UK/US and everyone else involved as good either. The difference I'd say is the bad stuff is hidden, for us.
What makes mainstreme cover stories, there to make people on their side, more likley to be true than the "conspiracy" theories?
We are not liberating these countries by going over there. I think it goes deeper, to serve an agenda. I don't think the people in charge really crae about the people of those countries.

you can't expect people to believe the hype on the news, it bloody well lies to you all the time.

Agree with both of these. I don't think that just because someone doubts the government/media machine, that automatically qualifies them for the title of "nutjob". They laugh at you when you don't think for yourself, then laugh at you when you do. And yes, I do mean think for yourself, not just buy into any old conspiracy theory. I don't have a theory about bin Laden - I just think the whole death event seems suspicious. I thought so the moment I heard about it, before any one else even got to voice their opinion to me.

you merely have to be selective in your news sources:

I think this is a good answer.
Oooh, FoxNews
Great catch. I knew that would happen a time or two.
I'm stunned by people cheering his death. I am far from a religious or faithful person, but I would never cheer the death of someone, no matter how much I dislike them. I can understand those who have been personally touched by his actions celebrating, whether I like it or not, but it is not my place to say anything. But for the rest of us, I find it unbecoming. Now when all the troops return home, then I'll celebrate. (I know there are always troops abroad, even in times of peace, but I'm hoping y'all get what I'm saying.)

The troops can never return. Terrorism is not like fighting a country, there is no definitive leader or structure. Furthermore the USA went into conflict without ANY plan to replace the structures they were removing! They can never leave now, they've effectively opened up a black hole. That's very sad. Even more sad was how Oblahblah lied through his teeth about it.

I completely agree. My reaction is acknowledging it as beneficial, and even maybe validation for some. But it never occured to me that death is worth cheering.
Eh, a girl can dream, can't she? Gosh, you'd think between George W. Buttmonkey and Barack Oblahblah, us Americans could pick someone who isn't a filthy liar.

I meant the specific conspiracy theories where people say that Al-Qaeda wasn't responsible for 9/11 and that it was the U.S. government that did it.

The average American (and the average Norwegian, Dutchman, Italian, Australian or any average Joe regardless of native country) thinks being head of government means "supreme boss of everything". Therefore, a candidate can either tell the truth and lose in favour of a liar, or he can become a liar himself and win. Comforting lies sell, unpleasant truths don't.

It's likely someone has said this already, but Obama is actually an African name.
Also, his full birth certificate was recently released; something Donald Trump was quick to take credit for...
I'll never understand politics. -.-
Anyways, on the original topic: I don't believe we'll never know for sure if Osama is actually dead, but the thought still satisfies my darker side.
Also I doubt that if he is dead, he was shot for "resisting arrest" - I imagine the greater part of America would shoot on sight, military protocol be damned.
Does anyone find this offensive? i'm STILL scratching my head over it.
A customer at my work comes to me and talks to me, i ask if it's still rainin g outside and he said it's pouring and i tell him it's pouring because the gods are sad Osama is with them now. I don't actually believe in gods or a god...just kinda joking around. He gave me a straight smiley face kinda look and i said i was joking...it was an awkward moment, even after we started talking about something else after.
