All things being equal, that would be true.

Until you apply a little thing called common sense. Just like the birther debate... The common sense answer was the right one.

I would have believed the news OBL was dead coming form the Bush administration as well. Too bad the converse isn't true for most of the posters here.

Again, where is your proof to make such statements such as you did while accepting something without an ounce of proof?

I might ask you the same thing......where is the proof that bin Laden is still alive? He's been very generous with releasing video tapes to taunt the U.S. over the past 10 years. If he were still alive he'd be having a field day releasing one now to embarrass us. You think he'd pass up that opportunity if he were still alive?

FOXNews.com - Report: Bin Laden Already Dead - U.S. & World

I don't think Fox reports on merely rumors. Like them or not, they are one of the very large mainstream media sources that reported Osama's death in 2001

Again, if this thing were some well orchestrated hoax perpetuated to boost Obama's approval ratings, they probably would have provided for the likelihood that feeding him to the sharks in an expedient manner would raise suspicions.

I find these reasons very lame , and in fact, a joke. 1. His body
was allegedly carried away by our Navy Seals and brought to an
awaiting ship, so where do they get this protocol of abiding by
Muslim tradition when the Navy Seals dont even follow 'Muslim
tradition' ? 2. Why not bring the remains of BinLaden back to the
USA where his body can be reviewed by Medical Doctors to concretely
confirm his identity , and, because he was the USA's public enemy
number one having killed 3000 innocent Americans ? Instead , our U.S.
Navy tosses his body overboard for the sake of 'Muslim tradition' ?!
What utter nonsense .


Frankly, I dont trust our U.S. Government given its corruption ,
military coverups such as Pat Tilman from upper Military Eschelon ,
and the general untrustworthiness of U.S. Politicians. Even if they
produced some pictures of the deceased BinLadens body, how do we know
they are authentic and not doctored up as already appears on the
Internet ? Obama had to agree to bury his body at sea and it most certainly should have been brought to the U.S.
Does anyone else see the ludicrous reason for allegedly burying the
most hated man in U.S. history at sea that we've spent hundred of millions of dollars chasing ? Something is very very fishy
here. Anyone else troubled by this alleged action taken ???

Hi.

This is bin Laden typing at the computer.

Yes, I really am dead.

You will see and hear no more videos from me. Ever.

The swallowers are funny. Insults and deflection.

Well, except for that last video that this administration said it would release soon....... or, maybe it won't be, just like the photos weren't. Still waiting for Valerie Jarrett to make that call.

Here's the thing. It really doesn't matter whether you personally believe he's dead. The important thing is that he IS dead, so he can't plan or fund any more attacks.
