Reports of his death emerged online late Sunday (May 1) evening. Al-Qaeda founder and leader Osama Bin Laden is dead, according to US media reports citing officials. The US is in possession of Bin Laden's body, the reports say. President Barack Obama is due to make a statement shortly. Mr Bin Laden is top of the US most wanted list.

President Obama has endured entertainment industry criticism over the last few years for requesting premium broadcast air time for making speeches. But Sunday night’s abrupt and unexpected interruption is unlikely to draw any complaints. Multiple news organizations are reporting that the White House is set to announce that, at last, Osama bin Laden is dead. ABC, CBS and NBC have cut away from scheduled programming to cover this enormous news. With all the back and forth between President Obama and Donald Trump in recent weeks, Twitter flared up with amused conspiracy theories when NBC News cut away from Trump’s Celebrity...

WASHINGTON — Osama bin Laden is dead and his body has been recovered by U.S. authorities, U.S. officials said Sunday. U.S. President Barack Obama was to make the dramatic announcement shortly in a hastily called, late-night appearance at the White House. It is a major accomplishment for Obama and his national security team. Obama’s predecessor, George W. Bush, had repeatedly vowed to bring to justice the mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, but never did before leaving office in early 2009. U.S. officials said that after searching in vain for the al-Qaeda leader since...

I remember that Bin Laden was said to have a bodyguard who would kill him if he was ever about to fall into US hands. Maybe that's how he died because I don't think Obama said our forces actually killed him.

WASHINGTON – Osama bin Laden, the mastermind behind the Sept. 11 attacks against the United States, is dead, and the U.S. is in possession of his body, a person familiar with the situation said late Sunday.

I just heard on ABC radio news that bin Laden is to be buried at sea. Why in the world, after everything that has resulted from his actions, would they fail to produce a body as proof of his death?

The most important thing is justice is served and gratitude to our military for the hard work they achieved in getting Osama. But libs on the networks are talking about political victory for Obama and game changers for his reelections anybody remember Bush and his 90% approval because of the Gulf War swift victory? It fell apart because of the falling economy In a few weeks if gas prices go up higher...any bump in Obama approval or U.S. euphoria which we ALL should be glad about will fall apart.

Just a mater of time before they do.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is dead, and President Barack Obama will announce his death, nearly 10 years after the September 11 attacks in a televised address, a senior US official told AFP.

Obama was imminently to address Americans in a highly unusual Sunday night appearance on television.

Al Qaeda terrorists have threatened to unleash a "nuclear hellstorm" on the West if their leader and world's most wanted terrorist Osama bin Laden is nabbed. A senior al Qaeda commander has claimed that the terror group has stashed away a nuclear bomb in Europe which will be detonated if bin Laden is ever caught or assassinated, according to new top secret files made public by internet whistleblower WikiLeaks. The documents are secret details of the background to the capture of each of the 780 people held at or have passed through the Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba, along...

Secret government documents leaked to the media last night reveal a top Gitmo detainee vowed to unleash a "nuclear hellstorm" if Osama Bin Laden was ever captured or assassinated. Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, claimed Al Qaeda had hidden a nuclear bomb in Europe that was tied to Bin Laden's fate, according to a dump of classified documents released by the WikiLeaks website. The frightening information was in thousands of pages of dossiers of detainees being held at the controversial Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba. Mohammed's boast to his Gitmo interrogators remains unconfirmed, but officials...

WASHINGTON (AP) — A Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee sees a Libyan stalemate and wants NATO to bomb Moammar Gadhafi's inner circle and military headquarters. South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham says those closest to Gadhafi "need to wake up every day wondering, 'Will this my last?'" Graham tells CNN's "State of the Union" that the quickest way to end the stalemate is "to cut the head of the snake off."
