That's great news. Congratulations to all allied forces embarked on this hunt for almost 10 years to get the bastard, at the price of their life, and especially to the U.S. commando who led this last operation. Monte is right, we need to unite -- and not just the U.S. -- for we are not over with terrorism.

I hear there is already controversy about the authenticity of the picture showing Bin Laden's corpse. Jesus! Some people are ready for anything just to get an audience. We've seen the face of the man often enough over the years to see that it's definitely him. Doesn't need experts to confirm.

Tom Petrov, dude, can we lay off the politics of the issue. FWIW, as flawed a filmmaker Moore is, F911 actually said nothing about leaving Osama alone and actually warned us of Karzai.

I personally was hoping that Osama would be caught alive but severely maimed so he could suffer. But I will take this.

Wolf Biltzer has it all figured out. He says that the U.S. government clearly did not trust the Pakistani government to take on this mission. He also did his own make-up for the last nights CNN telecast. He was also watching the Capitals/Lightning game.

He also said he had hunch Bin Ladin was caught he was called late last night, but he didnt want to be the one to break the news.

I was thinking they should have loaded him into one of those radio controlled drone planes and flown it into one of his "palaces."

I also don't think it was political. If political, the timing is wrong -- there's another whole year until the presidential election will really heat up, so if it was REALLY done for political purposes, they'd have waited another 8 or 9 months to do it.

They say he was "buried" at sea in deference to Islamic burial law. I say he didn't deserve that dignity. The people who he had incinerated didn't get to be buried according to THEIR religious rituals. I hope they didn't throw all of him into the sea. Surely we kept SOMETHING to show the world it was really him that we got....maybe like his freakin ugly head. Stick it on a pole somewhere like the pig in LORD OF THE FLYS and let NY city rats tear it apart then broadcast it on CNN.

Sorry, I am in that kind of mood.

Cut off his pecker and put it in his mouth. Cut off his head and stuff it up his ass. Feed him to a herd of hungry pigs. Let them digest their meal and shit it out. Scoop up the shit, kill the pigs and put everything, pigs, shit and all, into an industrial meat grinder. Dump the resulting soup in a large oil tank and let anybody whose relatives were killed in New York City take a piss in the tank. When everybody is done pissing, douse everything with crude oil, stir it with an old canoe paddle, set it on fire until it burns to ashes. Douse the smoldering ashes with stale beer, pave it over with concrete and plant a giant American flag in the center of it all. Paint lines on the pavement and let people park their cars on it for free but only if they were born in the USA.

Sounds like either Michael Bay or Oliver Stone should be getting a phone call any day now.

I fail to see what good "faking this" would cause. Sure it's a feather in the president's cap but like I said above, if it was a political move it's about 8 months early. If Bin Laden really is dead, the popularity "bump" for the president will fade long before the election (gas prices will be back in the forefront of the news next week); and if it does turn out to be not true, then his re-election chances are shot to hell.

And, if it's really NOT true, there's a whole 1.5 years to prove it -- which wouldn't be that hard in this day and age.

He knows about the secret city built underneath Denver International Airport. He knows about all of the ready to eat meals that FEMA is stockpiling and he knows why. He knows about Planet X aka Nibiru which will come dangerously close to Earth in late 2012 and he knows that the government knows and that they are not telling us. He knows that the government is super great at keeping secrets that NOBODY can unravel... nobody but Tom Petrov.

If Tom believed all of Joe's other, kooky conspiracies, then maybe I'd think he was nuts. But all he said is that he wanted more evidence that the guy was dead and there was propaganda going on. I cry "no fair" slamming a guy for something he never even said. (But I don't believe the government is hiding alien bodies, for what it's worth.)

The truth is, lots of people would like more proof (or at least details) and some of the stories we heard yesterday are already changing. So Tom's not entirely out-to-lunch. Does this mean that Osama isn't really at the bottom of the sea? No, I think he's really there.

Thing is, no administration could be so stupid as to try to hoax something like this -- it would be their ruination if it got out, and how could it not? Does the gov spin propaganda? No doubt. Is this mutha dead? I believe he is and quite frankly all the other details for me are pretty insignificant. Let them spin a bit on it if they feel they can get more milage throughout the world fussin it up a bit.

Quite frankly, I don't care where his body is or even if it's at the bottom of the sea or not. He's dead and they can spin the movie about the raid and how reverent they were with the Muslim burial ritual they did or didn't perform anyway they like. Dead is dead, but you are right -- I think the world is going to want more than some DNA results in an envelope. Which brings me back to what I wished they had done: HIS HEAD ON A STICK.

I'm impressed that the pertinent details were not leaked prior to bin Ladin's death. This means there are people out there that can keep a secret and not leak data for their own personal gain.

No gloating from our government, "just the facts, sir"; Obama calmly went on with the country's business knowing this was in the works. I believe they did everything they could to not set up a martyr situation for this rat; no burning of the body, burial before sundown the next day, no place on dry earth a future shrine can be put up, etc.

And my friend believes it. I have to listen to him go on and on about her and other "psychics" as he recants their predictions.

The thing that kills me is he's otherwise a bright, intellegent guy. I just want to slap him up side the head and say, "Do you think Sylvia Brown could have predicted that...DO YOU?"

The whole thing happened so fast, it's not at all surprising there are differing accounts of what happened. Can you recount your every move every minute of every day? Could you do that if it was dark and you were in a big hurry and there was a gun-fight happening and one of your helicopters crashed?

I wonder who OBL's favorite porn star was?

Porn found in OBL's house

An extensive porn stash was found in Osama bin Laden’s hideout by the U.S. commandos who killed him, according to Reuters.

The collection consisted of modern electronically recorded video. Reports from Abbottabad said that the hideout was cut off from internet and other communication networks, so it is unclear how the materials were acquired.

It has not yet been released where in the compound the materials were discovered, so officials do not know if the pornography was viewed by bin Laden himself.

Confiscated materials from the compound included digital thumb drives. U.S. officials believe this was a principal means by which couriers delivered messages to and from the al Qaeda leader.

According to three other U.S. officials familiar with gathering evidence from investigations of other Islamic militants, the discovery of pornography is not uncommon.
