“The absolute only thing that we know to be true is our SEALS performed their job flawlessly.”

Except for the helicopter part, including burning the tail. Also, we don’t really know what happened.

I seems the SEALs received more flak and misinformation from the WH than from the Pakis.

The daughter who is speaking out is Safiyah. The son who was killed is likely to be Khalid.

I have seen a report of one detainee. Another son Hamza is a possibility.

Most of us watchers are very skeptical about any interviews coming out at the hands of the Pakistanis, they are very humiliated.

‘Indonesia says its most wanted terrorist suspect was in
Pakistan to meet Osama bin Laden when he was arrested there
early this year.’ In Abottabad, Pakistan.

No, No the media will not look into the fact that the Muslim country where Obama was raised and the Muslim country he visited in college, when Americans warned not to go there, has killed leading Muslim terrorists in the same place, both of them from Countries involving Obama.

How far away from Abbottobad, Pakistan is it from where Obama stayed in Pakistan, when he was in college?

We had a good kill of OBL (assuming we didn’t capture alive for interrogation). If we do have a son or informant as prisoner for more info, good. I enjoy all Freeper streams of consciousness but all the posts sounding like something nefarious was done are pretty off the wall. We killed OBL. Good thing. Misinformation also could be a good thing.

Osama bin laden took almost 3000 persons alive 9/11 and then killed them in cold blood.

Any one of the terrorists in the house could have had a kill switch, a suicide vest, or a booby trap device set, thus split second kill hits.

He had a son named "HAMza"? I thought they didn't like pork.

One was buried at sea, that was not necessarily OBL. OBL may very well be still alive since the goal was to take him alive if possible.

Theer was a story circulating yesterday that the SEALS only stubbed OBL with a stun gun and shot him with red paintballs to make it look like they shot him to any observers.

The second body was the one dumped into the sea and now everyone believes that OBKL is dead because the daughter thought she saw him killed after he was captured unharmed and teh U.S. claimed that we killed him.

One reason the photos can’t be released is that whatever is released would contradict what the daughter said happened. If the daughter thought she saw him shot in a certain place and the photoshopped wounds weren’t at that exact location, the ruse would be foiled.

I sincerely believe that OBL was taken away alive uninjured. He was only stunned to prevent him from moving around. He was probably also druggrd to knock him out.

Since there were very few who saw the actual body preparation and burial at sea, there are very few who know exactly what happened.

Remember that the plan was to take him alive if at all possible. With the hoax that he was killed in place there will be no rescue efforts attempted and no one will truly know what happened until lots of high lervel Alquada start hetting killed.

At this point
we know nothing.

Was it designed this way?
I don’t know

You don’t even know for sure if the Navy Seals were involved.

Where is the DOD on this ?????

We haven’t heard a peep out of them...except for the soon to be Secretary of Defense who only served two years in the Army.
Come on, two years in the Army. Isn’t there anyone more qualified than Panetta.

The more the days go by the more I don’t have a clue what this is all about.

Who are they setting up?

It is entirely possible that someone ratted him out and now he is in the CIA equivalent of witness protection.

Anything is possible.

Will we ever have a semblance of the truth.

I doubt it.

there were also 19 to 24 children present at the house. A bomb that would kill them all would be most unlikely. The Moslems prefer to kill other people and other people's children, not their own.

I believe that OBL was counting on the outside and downstairs security rather than having guns and bombs upstairs where his children were.

Think about it, being surrounded by both the Pakistani military in a location that surely no one could possibly invade plus his own body guards outside and downstairs, it made no sense for OBL to keep weapons upstairs.

If any invaders got past all the other security, he having a gun wouldn't have stopped them and by not having a gun, he would protect himself and his family by simply surrendering.

According to OBL’s daughter, he was captured alive, in custody, and under control before being shot cold blooded. He wasn't shot resisting. Since he was captured and under control it was much easier to knock him out with a stun gun and/or drugs and then fake the killing.

Note to saelf, be sure to spell check even though that doesn’t seem to help all that much.

What if Osama and Al-Zawahiri both knew he was going to die from disease soon, and planned this whole “killing” to make OBL a martyr to incite jihadis to more violence?

Is it such a stretch that Osama committed “suicide by Seal”?

But AQ would have had no way of knowing for sure whether the U.S. would announce OBL’s death to the world. Sure, with publicity-whore Zero in the WH, it was likely, but still not certain. After all, GWB didn’t announce it to the world when he killed OBL :)

as well as taking Osama bin Laden’s body away the Americans took one person alive — possibly one of his sons.

Maybe he's the one that is fish food right now and Osama is being Jack Bauered.

Very good analysis. Initially, when I begin to think OBL might be alive, I thought “you’re beginning to think like a conspiracy theorist”. But as the 0bama regime’s account and story began to change day by day, hour by hour, the idea that OBL is still alive seems much more plausible.
