"jwhop, I`m not big on conspiracy theories but yes, it leaves too many threads knotted. Something doesn`t fit here. DNA as you mentioned, he was in the middle of a military area/encampment and no proof positive is unreal."Well juni, bin Laden was in what amounts to a mansion in Pakistan. But, he was not in a Pakistani military compound. There were armed people on the grounds...some of whom were shot by the Seal Team so I guess you could say it was an armed encampment. It's the fast positive DNA results that I find hard to resolve with the timeline. IP: Logged |

The stories are still comming so guess it`s a wait and see. cnn said late last night he was "in the middle" a military encampment.... Burial at sea is very understandable. ------------------ ~The Earth Laughs In Flowers~ ... Emerson IP: Logged |

Well, as I understand it, the mansion was located near a military installation..not in it or next to it but near it and Pakistan was not notified of the operation.Reports I've seen state the operation on the ground took about 40-45 minutes but there's no reports of Pakistani military forces showing up at the scene while the operation was in progress to find out what was going on.

Agreed, it does seem as if there are a lot of unanswered questions and loose ends. I do think he is dead, whether this occurred years before or just now. We are celebrating, our country has been hit with massively hard times and the people are finding closure for 9/11 in the symbolic death of alleged mastermind. IP: Logged |

I agree about the DNA thing, but as they found the compound several months ago, perhaps the DNA tests were part of what identified Bin Laden's definitive presense in the compound. I read that they weren't certain about it for awhile. A DNA test coming out of there could have provided that certainty.IP: Logged |

At least the head is cut off the snake now!! That`s a relief to the many here and abroad who have suffered such great loss`s from his demented self and followers. Who buys Pakistan wasn`t aware of the compound 60 miles from their capitol

The intelligence official said the DNA match, using DNA from several family members, provided virtual certainty that it was bin Laden's body.Officials did not immediately say where or how the testing was done but the test explains why President Barack Obama was confident to announce the death to the world Sunday night. Obama provided no details on the identification process. The U.S. is believed to have collected DNA samples from bin Laden family members in the years since the 9/11 attacks that triggered the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan. It was unclear whether the U.S. also had fingerprints or some other means to identify the body on site. Bin Laden was shot in the head during the firefight with members of an elite American counter-terrorism unit that launched a helicopter-borne raid on the al-Qaida leader's compound, U.S. officials said. Officials said the U.S. special forces who stormed the compound came face to face with their prey. U.S. officials also said bin Laden was identified through "facial recognition," a reference to technology for mapping unique facial characteristics, but it was not clear exactly how the Navy SEAL troops performed the comparison. The body was photographed before being buried at sea, although no images have been released by the Obama administration. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110502/ap_on_re_us/us_bin_laden_dna ------------------ ~The Earth Laughs In Flowers~ ...

Who represents the United States? Is the Socialist Agenda propounded by America through "O Bomber" good and true? Can other countries believe that? Will you be happy then? In any case, "O Bomber" will have all those who fail to see through these political mind games for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I was shell shocked at his audacity to put the Lion King video but then he has Sun conjunct Lucifer. I was hoping he would use it positively but... For those who recall that movie, the little Disney movie snippet after the birth certificate release was a clever program to convince the huge gathering of decision makers [including the Donald] that Obama is a Horus Incarnate or chosen by Osiris. Lion King is all about Osiris [Mufasa] killed by Set [Scar], sought by an ISIS inspired by Thoth [Rafiki] to rejuvenate Osiris [Simba] and ultimately father young "Horus" to complete the Circle of Life after Set is finished off in a fiery battle. Freemasonry is always the flavor for those in the corridors of American Power and the Brothers will throw their weight behind him 100% now.

Well said IQ, my sentiments exactly.Coming from a Knowflake from another Country in this "GLOBAL UNITY"... At least someone is paying attention....  (I also love all the chemtrails in the Lion King, as in all the Pixar films afterward.) The stage is certainly setting and the players are all playing their parts... The Orchestra is setting US up once again to "elect" their selected One. I wonder who it will Be?  I'm voting Ron Paul. Again. ( oops I meant ) ------------------ Gnosis ThySelf but alas...

http://www.thebostonchannel.com/r/27739824/detail.html Report: DNA At Mass. General Confirms bin Laden's Death DNA From bin Laden's Sister Collected At Massachusetts General
BOSTON -- The death of a sister of Osama bin Laden at Massachusetts General Hospital allowed the United States to confirm bin Laden's death, ABC News reported. When his sister died in Boston, tissue from her body was taken by government officials for DNA testing, ABC News correspondent Brian Ross reported. A source told NewsCenter 5 that bin Laden's sister died in Boston about a year ago. The tissue sample was used to match the DNA found on the man killed by special forces troops who conducted the raid on bin Laden's Pakistani compound. Government officials claimed the DNA evidence provides a match with 99.9 percent confidence. Jwhop IP: Logged |

"Ridiculous statement, someone is clearly upset that the Republicans did not do this and now he has to give "O Bomber" credit for an act very close to the Neocon heart."Well, that's a load of codswallop, more so since I defended O'Bomber against what looks like the beginnings of another conspiracy theory.... bin Laden has been dead for years...just for instance and O'Bomber is just polishing his reelection chances..no doubt by trying to fake out Americans and the rest of the world that he sent Navy Seals and other Special Forces out and killed bin Laden on Sunday.  Juni, I've seen later reports about where bin Laden's compound actually was. Different reports have it as close as 100 yards and as far as 1000 yards from a Pakistani Military Academy. That's a lot closer than the earlier report I saw this morning. Ummm, I understand there are DNA samples from a close bin Laden relative or relatives. What I don't understand is how they managed to run DNA samples on tissue from bin Laden...and get DNA results so quickly. lalalinda IP: Logged |

Perhaps we should have invited Osama over to brunch. That would have made him stop wanting to kill us.IP: Logged |
