Did they not cut of his hands??? like Che???
I doubt they'd give up the corpse of OBL at all, let alone within 24hrs. Sea burial? Nah, that's bullshit I reckon. Of course they'll freeze him and slice his brain up and stuff. Probably clone him too.

Watching the crap coming out of the"Terror adviser from the White House" on the BBC, he skims the true story about dumping the body into the sea... be honest you don't want a shrine build in his honour so you dumped him into the sea... (Sorry buried) within 24 hours.. and "allegedly" spoke to people who "know about stuff" that it was o.k. to dump him into the sea...
Brennan looks incredibly uncomfortable. His body language is all over the place. He must be very well trained for this stuff, but he's absolutely in bits, all over the fucking shop. Doesn't bode well...
Iv'e been there. It's a medium sized town. Absolutely beautiful place fwiw.I don't recall any more military or security there than anywhere else but as a tourist these things can pass you by unless you are looking. I certainly wouldn't have considered it a likely place for the worlds most wanted man to hide. Pakistan is full of wild tribal towns where he could find sympathetic locals and where the reach of the army and the state is stretched. I would have guessed he would be holed up in one of those
I have just spent an hour chatting online to two Pakistani friends in Punjab and they both dismiss the story as bullshit. The US is storing up a lot of trouble by playing things like this. If he is dead they had better prove it. The thing is conspiracy theories aren't harmless they arise from and further reinforce a distrust of the West and especially the USA and play straight into the hands of the Taliban and Islamist groups by creating an opening for their propaganda.
One other thing about this. He was holed up in the middle of a garrison town. A town by no means isolated in any way. In a million pound mansion. One of the biggest in town. Surrounded by walls and barbed wire. Inside that Villa, he was armed to the teeth. Reports are of rocket launchers fired at the helicopter and a 40 minute firefight. So inside this Villa he had enough arms to engage special forces and a helicopter.
And the Pakistani military didn't know ? Like fuck.
are you actually disappointed at this news??
Also, what would the withdrawn troops be diverted to in a time of economic crisis. Peeling spuds all day at a base in Wisconsin or boots on the ground in Libya?
If he's been there for nigh on 10 years it would seem it's a pretty good choice.
The drones that have been pounding NWFP have left that town alone for a start.
well no, and nobody has suggested this?Are we to believe that the US will stop being imperialist now that OBL is dead?
you sound as convincing as Obamas spokesman
he's gone for the tactic of getting into one building and never leaving it, keep the numbers who know about it to an absolute minimum and hope for the best. probably better than relying on wider numbers as he would if he kept moving.
If you look at the digs he was supposedly in it resembles more a doss house than a Bond Villain hideout. Are we to believe this guy had money to fund terrorism but lived in desperate slum conditions?
unlike Obama's spokesman I'm not trying to convince anybody, just speculating for the fun of it. as are those jumping in saying its all a stunt/ lie/ hoax to be fair.

Is the Internet really the right place for indulging in wild, unsubstantiated rumour and idle speculation?

if that's what your basing your analysis on........
What a weekend the patriotism wing of international capital has been having!
Marriage of a future head of state and death to evil terrorist mastermind. Long live the system!
