LADEN DEAD?
Updated 18 minutes ago

Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in 1998. (Reuters)
There are media reports that the United States has the body of Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

President Barack Obama is schedule to issue a statement at a press conference shortly.

Al Jazeera is reporting that Afghan officials have confirmed bin Laden is dead and that US authorities have his body.

Bin Laden was reportedly killed in a mansion outside Pakistan's capital Islamabad last week.

Reports say he was killed along with 20 other people in a drone strike.

The 54-year-old Saudi has been the most wanted man in the world since 2001 when he helped orchestrate the September 11 terrorist attacks in New York and Washington.

It is a major accomplishment for Mr Obama and his national security team, fulfilling the goal once voiced by Mr Obama's predecessor, George W Bush, to bring bin Laden to justice.

US soldiers and Afghan militia forces launched a large-scale assault on the Tora Bora mountains after the attacks in pursuit of bin Laden.

The time was right.....oh! I mean the timing. It took the president 4 years to show his birth certificate.....and Osama turns up dead two days later.

Apparently a mansion was blown up a week ago in Pakistan and 21 people died in total, including Bin laden.......are the whole Pakistani media all dead?

Why was this not reported at the time......one whole week......7 days to hit the news....in this age of instant media..... Grin

Reply #13 - May 2^nd, 2011 at 1:31pm The idiot box (TV) is just saying Obama will on in a couple of minutes. The repoerter also said, Obama had been killed 2 days ago & had been officially identified by DNA. Well kept secret, if so!
