I have just seen the announcement that the _resident has REFUSED to release a photograph of proof that bin laden has indeed been killed as they claim. Prepare yourselves and see to your families. Look to your safety. And prepare for war.

It was reported this morning that BO asked Pres. Bush to come to the meeting with families of 9/11, but Pres. Bush refused, saying he did not want the spotlight. Such class would never occur to BO or any other no-class Democrat politician.

"WE have no proof that bin laden was even there and the "proof" they claim to have, they won't release for fear of offending muslim "sensibilities"? After broadcasting obama's speech worldwide? After the images of a "euphoric celebration" was broadcast at the same time? After not worrying about offending muslim "sensibilities" as long as obama was being covered on international television?"

I only have one reply to this, and that is the Seal team that actually went in and did the raid.

There is still strong honor and integrity among our soldiers, especially the elite units like this one. If Obama was going to use their heroism as a stepping stool for his campaigning I will bet my house one of the members of that unit will step forward and denounce him as a liar on camera for it.

There is no way they would allow him to announce to the world that "HE" ordered a successful attack that led to the death of one of the most hated men in our history if it didn't happen, UNLESS he was taken alive for interrogation. To lie for that reason would be perfectly acceptable to them if there was a need to, but not to further Obama's reelection bid.

Their silence tells me that "something" happened Sunday night that's close enough to the truth of whats been reported to keep them quiet, orders and threats of court martial be damned.

Advice to Muslims on the Death of Osama bin Ladin by Sheikh Haitham al-Haddad

---

The killing of Osama bin Ladin, may Allah have mercy on him, if proven to be true, may either be a coincidence or part of a strategic manoeuvre by the US and its allies to justify the adoption of new tactics in their ‘war on terror’ that has clearly proven to be counterproductive. It may be alleged that he was killed a long time ago but the killing was only now announced as a justification for the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan. All of these are possibilities that no one can emphatically confirm, and indeed, there need not be an exertion of effort to confirm or disprove the claims as wisdom dictates that we deal with facts and realities whilst planning for the worst of scenarios.

Whatever the case may be, Osama left this worldly life to meet his Lord who is the ultimate judge. Almighty Allah knows everything about him, his actions, and the conspiracies that surround his life. He knows what Osama did, what he didn’t do, and what we were made to believe that he did. In any case, he died as a Muslim and it is an established part of our Islamic creed that every Muslim, unlike the disbelievers, will eventually enter paradise. According to a number of scholars, the Muslim killed by the enemies of Islam is considered a martyr, regardless of whether he died during combat or simply in a state of non-combative military engagement such as being killed whilst sleeping. Other scholars limit the title of martyr only to those Muslims who are killed during active combat. Whatever the case may be, all scholars have agreed that mistakes made by a Muslim fighter in combat do not deprive him of his rights, whether it be the right of regarding him a martyr or any other Islamic right. The Prophet (peace be upon him) became very angry at his close companion Usamah ibn Zayd when he killed a disbeliever after he had said “there is no God but Allah”. The Prophet furiously repeated, “have you killed him after he said: there is no God but Allah!” However, the Prophet (peace be upon him) continued to appoint Usamah ibn Zayd as the general of the Muslim army and actually appointed him to lead the biggest military expedition that was undertaken during the Prophet’s life.

Any position we adopt must be bound by the guidelines of the Shari’ah and free from emotions and personal whims. We should intend to say (and act upon) what pleases Allah and not what pleases certain individuals, groups or governments. Saddam Hussain, may Allah have mercy on him, was amongst the persons most hated by Muslims having committed many heinous crimes. However, when he was hung he proclaimed: “There is no God but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger”. Based upon this, we have no choice but to ask Allah to bestow His mercy upon Saddam as he clearly died a Muslim. Allah informs us that he does not give the courage to any person on his/her deathbed to declare the testimony of faith unless he or she is a true Muslim. Allah says,


“Allah will keep firm those who believe, with the word that stands firm in this world and in the Hereafter. And Allah will cause to go astray those who are Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.), and Allah does what He wills.”[1]


Having said this, I would like to state that although these matters are in agreement with Islamic principles, the application of the principles in relation to certain individuals should not be a cause of fitnah and disunity among Muslims. Unity of Muslims and the purity of their hearts towards each other must be observed regardless of the scale of disagreements between them, as long as the scale of disagreement remains within the bounds of Islam.

Even though we fundamentally disagree with al-Qaeda and we condemn the unjustified killing that is attributed to them, it was very much instigated by the enemies of Islam themselves. In fact, I strongly believe that the presence of al-Qaeda is pleasing to the US especially as it allows the US justification for their crimes. In comparison, any amount of people killed by al-Qaeda has undoubtedly been trebled by the killing sprees of the US in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Gaza and other countries.

It is surprising how this major world Superpower was not only terrorized by a single man walking the face of the earth, but was also terrorized by him even whilst dead. President Obama declared that they would deal with the body of Bin Ladin in accordance with Islamic law and thus they threw it into the sea. This is the so-called respect that the US shows to Islam. In reality, these are the actual morals and values that America really calls for.

Whatever we say, Allah has the final say, and on the day of resurrection the truth will be revealed. Muslims will dwell in the delight of paradise and the disbelievers will be burned in the hellfire forever.


“These two opponents (believers and disbelievers) dispute with each other about their Lord; then as for those who disbelieve, garments of fire will be cut out for them, boiling water will be poured down over their heads. With it will melt or vanish away what is within their bellies, as well as (their) skins. And for them are hooked rods of iron (to punish them). Every time they seek to get away from it out of anguish, they will be driven back therein, and (it will be) said to them: "Taste the torment of burning!" Truly, Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous good deeds, to Gardens underneath which rivers flow (in Paradise), wherein they will be adorned with bracelets of gold and pearls and their garments therein will be of silk. And they are guided (in this world) unto goodly speech and they are guided to the Path of He who is Worthy of all praises.”[2]

Egypt Salafi Cleric Says Bin Laden Died A Martyr

---

CAIRO: A leader of an increasingly prominent hardline sect in Egypt praised Osama bin Laden on Tuesday and said the jihadist leader was a martyr who died with his "head held high."

Yassir Al-Burhami, a Salafi cleric in the Mediterranean port city of Alexandria, said bin Laden was a "martyr" who "was killed with his head held high, and God did not hand him over to his enemies," the official MENA news agency reported.

He added that that the disposal of bin Laden's body at sea after US commandos killed him in a Pakistan hideout showed the United States "knows no sanctity towards those alive or dead."

Salafis believe Muslims should return to the practices of their forbears. The sect's followers are mostly peaceful but its ideology has also inspired militants such as the Saudi-born bin Laden.

They have begun taking a more active role in Egyptian politics after a popular revolt ousted president Hosni Mubarak in February.

Salafist popularity is difficult to gauge but its increasing assertiveness worries secular Egyptians and the country's large Coptic Christian minority.

Iran’s Ahmadinejad on the way out?

WWL.com / AP Reporting
Several Arab media outlets are reporting that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, may be considering stepping down due to an intensifying rift between him and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s “supreme leader.”

One Arab TV network also reported that Khamenei has demanded that Ahmadinejad step down, but Western media has yet to confirm that to be true.

Earlier this week, Ahmadinejad had apparently signaled that he had backed down in the power struggle, by ending his apparent boycott of cabinet meetings.

The Iranian president’s challenge to the ultimate authority of Khamenei earned him public rebukes from the supreme leader himself as well as from lawmakers and hard-line clerics.

The split between the men, who had been close in the past, appeared to be centered on a battle for influence over next year’s parliamentary election and a presidential election in 2013.

It flared last month when Mr. Ahmadinejad dismissed the powerful intelligence minister, whom Ayatollah Khamenei then quickly reinstated. The president skipped two cabinet meetings last week.”

Thanks again MM for doing this and alerting Freepers of the potential danger created by the regime.

The fact that he destroyed the body in only a few hours when even under Muslim rules he had 24 hours leaves a sour taste in many a mind.

Plus the fact that he supposedly buried the body at sea where it can never be verified DNA wise once again leaves a huge distaste among many of us who would much rather have had the entire event well documented than being forced to take the word of known liars in a regime that tells far more lies and spins the truth so often they don't even know what it is.

Rumsfeld Urges White House to Keep Lid on Bin Laden Intel
fox ^ | 5/8/11 | staff

Posted on Sunday, May 08, 2011 2:49:07 PM by Nachum

Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on Sunday questioned why the Obama administration is releasing so much information about the operation that resulted in the death of Usama bin Laden and the intelligence behind it.

While Rumsfeld praised President Obama for overseeing and green-lighting the daring raid last weekend, he suggested the White House could be taking a risk in sharing the details it has with the public.

“The more information that goes out about intelligence, the greater the risks to our people and the less likelihood we’re going to be able to capture and/or kill some of the people who would result from the intelligence take here,” Rumsfeld said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”............***
