It was a raid by US Navy Seals on a safe house in Abbottabad. The Pakistani government assisted in the raid.
Hmm I read on CNN that the Pakistani government didn't know about this raid.
He's sleeping with the fish now but are they gonna show some kind of proof that he was killed?
I wish they would have captured him, he didn't deserve a fast death.
despite the rejoice of the American people...this is not good.
...well unless your Obama, hello re-election.
Yeah exactly, I have a feeling this is going to do the same kinda thing that capturing Saddam did for Bush.
i don't often post political stuff, since there are many views of the world and situations that arise by our members.
i have not tolerance for liberals and i detest obama and his policies. this democratic government and this president have done more harm in 2.5 years and ran up more debt than any other country in HISTORY (not just US history). americans are waking up to the fact that government and liberal policies and this liberal president are damaging this country and draining their liberty. housing market.. fail- economy.. fail- deficit- fail.. illegal immigration- fail.. energy costs/production- fail... on and on-
with all of that said, the president obviously was involved with this raid and gave it the go ahead, even though this was on pakistani soil. so we should give the president and this administration AND the military personnel directly involved a big kudos for making it happen. i don't often side with the president (obama) but he WAS involved with this, GAVE the order, and therefore deserves a 'job well done' in this instance.
now, i still cannot vote for such a man, as i deeply disagree with his policies and vision for america, as well as the liberals in congress. are we really better off 2.5 years after the election of obama? most americans are saying hell no, and deservedly so. you can have good moments of governing in a massively failing presidency. as the saying goes..
'the roses are not as tall as the manure is deep'
congratulations navy seals and score one for the good guys. no matter how you look at this, murdering 3000+ everyday people as they work in their jobs day to day is wrong and deserves punishment. i am glad that he did not 'surrender', which would have just drug this all out longer and made a mockery.
best,
Cal
