Author Topic: Osama bin Laden is dead Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 05-05-2011 06:20 PM                        According to the US government themselves, they had full clearance to kill Bin Laden unless he surrendered at which point they were to take him alive. I don't know what the actual order was, of course.  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 05-05-2011 09:46 PM                     Haven't read every post so sorry if this has already been said, but I read an article that said the Seals were under orders to assume Osama was booby trapped if they found him with clothes on and were given orders to strike. If they had found him naked, he might have made it out alive (yeah right).  |  IP: Logged Robert E.

It was not "murder". It's no different than if an allied general were killed.  |  IP: Logged Tom Petrov Five Guys Lover Posts: 1121 From: El Paso, TX Registered: Jan 2003 posted 05-06-2011 03:40 PM                    quote: Robert E. Allen It's no different than if an allied general were killed. And Michael Moore made a point last night that the world tried the Nazis after WWII...he was pretty outspoken about not taking him alive. He did say that Obama will get to the bottom of a cover-up if there was one in this case.  |  IP: Logged Hillary Charles Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 748 From: York, PA, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 05-06-2011 04:59 PM                     I used to like Michael Moore. But remember, every suicide bomber appears unarmed until it's too late to do anything about it. Just read what kind of tragedy can befall our troops through an act of compassion. No more American lives needed to be put in greater danger for that SOB just to appease a faction of the population.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-06-2011 06:05 PM                        quote: Tom Petrov He did say that Obama will get to the bottom Yeah, I'm sure the president consults with Michael Moore before he decides anything important. Also, Barbra Streisand.  |  IP: Logged Ron Funderburg Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 814 From: Chickasha, Oklahoma, USA Registered: Nov 2007 posted 05-06-2011 06:10 PM                        Oh yes Michael Moore the voice of Truth Justice and the American Way. No wait that is Superman isn't it? Hum well I'm sure Michael Moore is known for his truth at least his version of truth.  |  IP: Logged Tom Petrov Five Guys Lover Posts: 1121 From: El Paso, TX Registered: Jan 2003 posted 05-06-2011 06:17 PM                    quote: Ron Funderburg No wait that is Superman isn't it?

I think the issue was released this week but could be wrong. He has a disagreement with the government not sure what it is. But since I grew up in the 0's Superman will always be red, white and blue through and through to me!  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-07-2011 12:28 AM                        quote: Ron Funderburg Tom this true I did read that the other day. You guys do realize that Superman is a comic book character...don't you?  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 05-07-2011 01:49 AM                     quote: Robert E. Allen The guy was a casualty of war Couldn't say it better. The guy played in a rough game and he got what was coming to him. Truth is, no one really will ever know what it was like to be those SEALS at that moment. At that point, not only are you following orders but I'm sure instinct as well. I have every bit of faith in their judgement to take down that wretched scumbag. Considering he is responsible for the deaths of thousands, I think the punishment was just.

You know the day after they got him, I told a bunch of guys that Kate Middleton called the president to thank him for not ruining her big day.  |  IP: Logged Tom Petrov Five Guys Lover Posts: 1121 From: El Paso, TX Registered: Jan 2003 posted 05-07-2011 10:51 PM                    It looks like OBL wants to be a Jedi Knight  |  IP: Logged
