40 SEALS were in involved in the operation. Osama took a shot to the head as well as a few other places. The important thing is ,no U.S. special ops people were injured. By the way. They have his body too.
10 yrs is a long time to evade capture or death.We should have been able to get him much sooner imo,I guess late is better than never.One thought,the danger lies in him being viewed as a marter, which will probibly happen.This is not over yet,lots of "little ones" commin up to take up the fight, which is not good.My two cents.
I should say that's great news...but it isn't really. While he definitely deserved the death he received and then some, IMO, violence begets violence which will surely beget more violence and so on. While I commend our Nation, and many other Nations for never giving up, he's had 9 years and almost 6 months to plan for this. And surely the US will be "to blame" in those fanatics' eyes and so we will most surely be targeted again...
...But at least he won't be around to see that. However, for those traveling abroad this summer and for quite some time after that, be vigilant and always aware of your surroundings.
My sincerest & humblest thanks goes out to all the active military service men & women abroad and here at home, as well as to the intelligence community for finally zeroing in on this terrorist fanatic and putting him down for good. Thank you.
God bless America.

I think we should have a 'ganzaa to commemorate the occasion!
The only thing they should have done different is to cut open a big pig and sew his body up inside so he would be "defiled" for eternity. This Brits did this when fighting in Egypt and Sudan in the late 1890, they would then let a few go back to tell what had been done... The Jihadist didn't want to die defiled and not get their 72 virgins. They use our freedoms and constitution against us to spead their Shariah law in the US... Yet we fight by the rules of warfare.. I guess that make us "civil" Glad my dad didn't have the same rules of engagement when he was in the Pacific during WWII. Anyways, Great Job Seal Team 6. One big fish down, many more to go.
im glad hes gone,,but i think someone should lock this thread down before it gets out of hand..
We're keeping an eye on it.
