It's not murder, it's justice.

Murder was the twin towers, the Pentagon, and Shanksville.

So spare me the moralizing.

Not that I really believe you give a shit either way.

You just like to stir things up to satisfy your need for attention.

High inflation?

A 1.6% average inflation rate in 2010?




Now there is a topic worthy of a thread all by itself. So much money printed and dumped into the economy, such low official numbers, and such a change in what a trip to the grocery store is going to cost.

Bin Laden was unarmed when killed, White House says

Abbottabad, Pakistan (CNN) -- Osama bin Laden was not armed but did put up resistance when U.S. forces entered the compound he was in, then killed him, White House spokesman Jay Carney said Tuesday.

Providing new details of the events that transpired early Monday in Pakistan, Carney said U.S. Navy SEALs went floor-to-floor clearing the three-story compound where bin Laden's family lived along with others.

Three people were killed on the first floor, including a woman, Carney said.


U.S. forces then moved upstairs where they found bin Laden in a room with a woman believed to be his wife -- both unarmed, Carney said. She rushed the U.S. forces and was shot in the leg but not killed. Bin Laden resisted and was shot and killed, Carney said.

On Monday, President Barack Obama's top counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, said bin Laden was resisting and had a weapon, though he added that it was unclear whether bin Laden had fired a shot.

Bin Laden was unarmed when killed


Not that it means much, but this is the official word, which will probably have people up in arms about killing an unarmed man.


My argument about this is simple, the people in the world trade center and pentagon or on any of the jets were not armed, in point of fact, most victims of terrorist attacks are not armed.


Hoping he was unarmed. Hope is "wife" had to watch it. Hope he pissed himself knowing he was going to take one. Hope he begged at that last moment.

I'm with Firm on this one. Had OBL wanted a trial- he could have surrendered at any point. Since he didn't and the people at the compound appeared to be protecting him, I would not ask our troops to risk their own safety in attempting to bring him back alive. Dead is fine if its less trouble. Would anybody have objected if instead of using Seals we'd used a cruise missile instead? The advantage of the Seals was the certainty that you got the right guy and the minimal collateral casualties. But unless the head guy calls on his troops protecting him to surrender then it's not surrender if he just holds his hands up- he's just trying to save his own skin. Surrender is when everybody lays down their arms. Doesn't sound like that was the case.

No court required. 

Really?  Law of nations? Rules of war? nothing? Geneva? Nuremberg? 

just shootem dead?

Wait US = God? got it!


He was an avowed enemy of the nation,

yes the nations avowed him to be the enemy


who declared war on us,

Lets see the declaration

and then attacked us,

Lets see the proof that HE attacked us, that must be in some court case somewhere?  all that proof of what you claim?


murdering thousands.

I dont recall?  How did HE murder thousands?


His "trial" was when the US Congress passed a resolution giving him what he wanted, and then treated him just the same as any other enemy combatant.

Wow kool, lets see the evidence presented before the court and findings in fact and law to support that claim


In war, failure to surrender when demanded means that you have chosen to remain hostile, and therefore deadly force is within the law.

What war?  again lets see that documentation to support your claim.

that means BLACK INK ON WHITE PAPER not innuendo supposition propaganda and drama queen media hyperbole


He was asked to surrender.  He declined.  This made him a valid target for deadly force.

What jurisdiction did the US have over him or the nation he resided in?  Lets see the treaty that gave the US jurisdiction and the COURT that ordered him to surrender or was this another one of those MOB WITH GUNS democratic moves?


A target which was then serviced properly and legally.

Not a man?  Just a target?  Legally?  I keep asking for you to show me ALL THAT LEGALLY!

I have not seen anything LEGAL!

All I have seen is bullshit and the national Rah Rah team!


End of fucking legal theory.  You are the great "legal researcher", go look it up yourself.

ZZZzzzzz

suppport your claims jumior, aint gonna get it both ways!  You made the legal claims and put your dick on the chopping block now put it up.

Legally, it's not murder when it's done in accordance with the law.

Firm



which law is that Firm?  Who's law is that Firm?

You have so much BS in your post above, I can see that your vaunted "legal research" ability is apparent, not Real.

You are confusing "international law" and national jurisprudence.  Not the same thing at all.

Really?  Explain precisely how I am confusing the two?  I am not.

Osama bin Laden's declaration of war

Bin Laden's Fatwa
August 1996

The following text is a fatwa, or declaration of war, by Osama bin Laden first published in Al Quds Al Arabi, a London-based newspaper, in August, 1996. The fatwa is entitled "Declaration of War against the Americans Occupying the Land of the Two Holy Places."

Osama bin Laden Claims Responsibility for 9/11

Bin Laden Admits 9/11 Responsibility, Warns of More Attacks
Oct. 29, 2004, 5:10 p.m. ET

A tape aired by Al-Jazeera television Friday showed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden admitting for the first time that he orchestrated the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks and saying the United States could face more.

US Declaration of War Against Osama bin Laden et al

Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists

The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists (Pub.L. 107-40, 115 Stat. 224, enacted September 18, 2001), one of two resolutions commonly known as "AUMF" ... was a joint resolution passed by the United States Congress on September 14, 2001, authorizing the use of United States Armed Forces against those responsible for the attacks on September 11, 2001. The authorization granted the President the authority to use all "necessary and appropriate force" against those whom he determined "planned, authorized, committed or aided" the September 11th attacks, or who harbored said persons or groups. The AUMF was signed by President George W. Bush on September 18, 2001


Everything citation in your above citation quote is bullshit.

You show me certified documentation not this puppy chow media bullshit koolaide you put out here for the "court of drama tards"

OBL was a combatant, or well within the grey area, away from "noncombatant".  The Law of Land Warfare says that he if he surrenders, he must be protected.

Prove that he was a comnbatant!  Where is the indictment?  There is non!  Fucking prove your claims.


He was given the opportunity, and apparently declined.  This made him a threat, and deadly force is an appropriate course of action.

By a little mob who chose to use him as their scape goat?  Until you can prove it there is no more to that story and everything you post is just static and nouise.


Whether or not he was given very long to change his mind, or whether they tried "hard" to convince him, or whether or not he might have had weapons or the ability to cause harm to US soldiers is immaterial.  As far as anyone knows (or knew), he had a trigger device for a Paki nuke in his hand.

You don't give an enemy the opportunity to kill your soldiers.

Combatant.  Failure to surrender.  Deadly force.

None of your "legal" bullshit has anything to do with what happened.

Firm





LAWFULLY you cant just stand on a soap box and declare someone a combatant WITHOUT PROPER EVIDENCE.  There is such a thing as DUE PROCESS.

A MOB gathering making a resolution to murder someone is not DUE PROCESS.


By whatever label you want to put on them.

So show us proper evidence admissible in a real court, the indictment, and explain why the fbi never listed him as wanted for 911?   


You have a problem.

Uh, since we do have DNA evidence, why dont you get the bones of Sammy dug up, and lets do the test.

He cites actual us law and not some bullshit from england in the 16th century and you call it bullshit?

It is evident why even if you had a cogent rational thought nobody would give it pause.

But many here are convinced you will never have it.

No, R0, you have the problem.  Or problems, more accurately.

Again, you are confusing international law and national jurisprudence.  "Due process" is not a requirement of international law in this case.

You are the legal researcher, who likes to quote document after document.  If you don't understand the difference between international law and jurisprudence, it does nothing but invalidate your words and conclusions about any any legal issue.

I'm not going to educate you on the differences.  There is a world of information out there.

Also FYI:

Osama on the FBI's "Most Wanted" list

With Osama Bin Laden Dead, FBI's Most Wanted Fugitive List Has An Opening

With a bold red banner and the long-awaited word -- "Deceased" -- the Federal Bureau of Investigation retired Osama bin Laden from its Most Wanted lists early Monday morning.

The terrorist mastermind was the only individual at the time to occupy both the FBI's 10 Most Wanted Fugitives list and its Most Wanted Terrorists list -- a testament not only to the extreme threat that bin Laden posed but also to the bureau's shifting priorities in the years leading up to and following the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

Bin Laden became one of the FBI’s 10 most wanted fugitives on June 7, 1999, after being indicted in absentia in a New York court for his alleged role in the 1998 embassy bombings in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya. He joined the ranks of alleged murderers, rapists and drug traffickers, because at the time the 10 Most Wanted list -- a 60-year-old FBI program designed to enlist the public in capturing outlaws -- was the most notorious ranking of criminals in the land.

Funny how Sunday both Osama bin Laden and Kate Middleton were both
getting their back doors rammed and shot in the face by some Navy guy.

He got what he deserved, talk Abbotabad place to hide.

What?

Sanity, you are truly a piece of work.

If this had happened when Bush was in office you would have been singing his praises and gloating about how he fulfilled his promise of getting Bin Laden dead or alive.

If anyone wants to start an inflation thread or about grocery prices, please start a thread(It might ACTUALLY be a good idea, and a change of subjects). Please quit hijacking the NUMEROUS Bin Laden threads on the boards.

Again, I have pulled numerous posts for extreme name calling/public attacks, and many OFFTOPIC posts. Since a lot of the same members are doing the same actions in different threads, rest assured you probably already have a letter if your post disappeared. If not, and you are confused, please feel free to write me and I will be happy to tell you if you are confused exactly why a specific post was pulled.

Are we absolutely sure that OBL was not brandishing a celery stick at the moment he met his untimely demise?  That could be on topic.

To the issue, though:

Someone in one version said he was yadda yadda yadda and someone in another version said he was yadda yadda yadda, but all versions agree he is as fuckin' dead as Julius Caesar.

The white house says he was unarmed, and I see no fodder for some coverup even from the tinfoilers.
