Osama Bin Laden

[MHS]

Al-Qaeda founder and leader Osama Bin Laden is dead, according to US media reports citing officials.

The US is in possession of Bin Laden's body, the reports say. President Barack Obama is due to make a statement shortly.

Mr Bin Laden is top of the US most wanted list.

He is accused of being behind a number of atrocities, including the attacks on New York and Washington on 11 September 2001

It looks like no one's got him on their death list. Apart from the Americans, obviously.

Tch.

Another potentially big money summer signing off the list.

He'd only make a big money move to the UK if he was to sign for his beloved L'Arse.

Bet he regrets using his actual location for his PlayStation account.

...and falling for that 'you have to complete your census form, it's the law' line.

 

[Motown Fox]

Just been reported that he's been buried at sea!

Looking at the crowd scenes you would think that USA had just won the World Cup!

"Mr Bin Laden is top of the US most wanted list."

That quote is no longer on the link that you gave. Quite right too, it should never have been worded like that in the first place. ****ing BBC

at my direction, the US launched a targeted operation…No Americans were harmed…After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden

No mention of how many British soldiers and civilians were harmed I notice.

What makes you think British soldiers were involved?

In this individual exercise I don't believe there were any, though plenty have died needlessly in ten years of absolute farce.

I agree with you on that...

If Os manages (an admittedly tricky task after being buried at sea) to resurrect himself on the third day, he'd be irresistibly attractive to a club that's been sniffing around the likes of Owen and Heskey.

Where was Gazza anyway?

 

[The Major]

Serves the evil **** right.

It was a US operation, it's very likely that British troops were killed.

killed on sunday morning, identified, taken to afghanistan, offered to the saudis, refused by saudis, taken to sea, buried. 24 hours? where's the pictures to prove it or was the USA govt at such a low popularity point they needed something to stimulate their standing?
