Wonder why they specified that it was not Osama.

Was his lip split before he died?

AFter so MANY “Senior Leaders,” it’s amazing that they have any left.
Question ... did the Drone read him his Miranda rights?
Was he tortured?
Certainly his civil rights were violated by this killing!
Call the ACLU!

Is this being reported anywhere other than MSNBC ?
Just curious...
To: Free ThinkerNY
Have they preferred Court Martial charges against the remote operator of the drone yet? He violated this man’s civil rights.

Not sure, I’m not near a TV. I’m also afraid that if I watch that channel, my eyes would melt.

Interesting. I see mention of the missile strike on long war journal dot com but they say some Taliban scumbags got hit, no mention of a AQ big fish. Counterterrorismblog dot org has nothing.

Will his body be flown to New York City for an autopsy,a civilian trial, and a public apology from Baraq?
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

I wonder why they simply don’t just identify him? But at least we won’t have dozens of threads wondering whether it’s bin Laden or Zawahiri... OR Osama or Ayman... that’s very tiring.

For all of you and your flippant attitudes, this is serious business, if you don't believe it enlist in the Marines, and stand a tour in those countries.This is not some SNL, this is the business of taking another life. Whether you like him or not.
