re: Bin Laden Killed

like i previously said every new story i read makes this mission more and more bad ass, now it sounds lke we were using top secret helicopters, thats why they tried to destroy it.

'Secret stealth chopper' used in bin Laden attack

this is the link with the pictures that skinnytee put up, the first four are the chopper, after that it gets graphic

Inside bin Laden's Compound

They pretty much try to destroy any aircraft left behind because even though some use old technology the computers on board are top secret.

re: Bin Laden Killed

I am certain that the photos have been circulated within international governments at some level to substantiate the death of Bin Laden. The question is more about putting them out for some sort of public gratification.

I don't have an issue either way, but I do think the issue goes away faster without public pictures than with them.

re: Bin Laden Killed

Photos of him dead are not meaningful proof that it is him..it doesn't make sense for the united states to lie about his death.

Osama is dead when America says he is dead.

Agreed, because Al Qaeda would immediately deny it.

Doubtful, at least any time soon.

For al Qaeda, losing bin Laden is like losing your beloved quarterback. Morale sinks and it takes some time to come back, if you ever come back.

Also, al Qaeda plans meticulously. They planned 9/11 for 5 years. It will take them some time to come up with a new plan which will not be compromised by the data taken from bin Laden's house.

Put differently, if al Qaeda could whip up a plan to attack the USA overnight, we would have seen more attacks since 9/11.
