Nope. His body will be wrapped up and then thrown into the ocean. And then the special ops team who killed him will die in a mysterious helicopter crash.

This is such a tragedy! The total wonton disregard for international borders. Attacking this poor elderly man in his home in a peaceful country. Clearly another instance of Yankee Imperialism. The man was going to turn over a new leaf and he had the rest of his life ahead of him!

And all yew people dancing on his grave.

I am outraged!

hmm. Democrats seemed to have said a few things along those lines when Soleimani was killed.

You cannot kill Islamic extremism or terrorism, it's an ideology. Do you think Muslims will one day embrace Israel? Sunni and Shiite Muslims will one day get along?

You could go back in time, take out religion, and folks would still find something to fight over.

Bin Laden was literally born wealthy, didn't have to work a day in his life, and he still chose a life of terrorism.

The truth is the Taliban were happy to shelter Ayman al-Zawahiri, who is Eygptian by birth, whilst the 9/11 attackers and Bin Laden were from Saudi Arabia, the so called pariah nation, which Biden is now trying to appease.

The Saudi's are now enjoying record profits due to high gas prices, and Putin and Mohammed bin Salman, now enjoy a close relationship, whilst Biden grovels and fist pumps the middle east.

As for Afghanistan, the Taliban are a different Islamic fundamentalist group to Al Quada, and Biden's mess of an Afghanistan withdrawal has generally strengthened the Islamic fundamentalist world, whilst leading to millions now in appalling conditions and mass starvation.

It's also worth noting that Blinken is now condemning the Islanic fundamentalist Taliban for sheltering the Al Quada leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, however what did he really expect.

Whilst I am pleased Ayman al-Zawahiri is now dead. this does not make up for Biden's mess in Afghanistan, and nor does it make up for US Foreign policy or narcissist Nancy Pelosi, who is quite happy to take the world to the edge of global conflict in order to get a cheap photo opportunity.

Good news.

Biden’s reading of the teleprompter left much to be desired. Felt bad for the fella but he could have handed the reading responsibility to another (Sec of Defense, etc.) but chose not to.

Gosh three pages in and the conspiracy theorist come around in droves.
"The typical: Wheres' the body! No body, no crime! "

The fact that your distain overshadows the news is nothing new though.

Never mind that a terrorist has been taken out.

the hatred is palpable here....sorta like the hatred Al Qaida has for our nation. I'm suspecting some of you are much like that mindset..... How unamerican that is....

Eh? Trust but verify. Except I don't trust this administration with anything, all they do is lie, so why should we think this isn't another lie?

Prove it.
