Osama Bin Laden Is Killed On Obama's Watch!! 2012 Re-election Victory!

After More Than 10 Years, Billions Of Dollars Spent & Thousands Of Lives Lost, Osama Bin Laden One Of The Key Leaders Of Al-Qaeda, Has Been Killed On Pres. Barack Obama's Watch!

Hopefully This News Will Bring Some Relief & Comfort To The Families Of Those Murdered By Al-Qaeda On 9-11.

I Also Believe News Of Bin Laden's Death Will Restore Trust & Confidence In Pres. Barack Obama's Ability To Help Keep America Safe Wouldn't You Agree??

Although I'm quite Sure That This Is The Last Thing On Pres. Obama's Mind At The Moment, But What A Great 2012 Re-election Victory Tool!!

However Considering Donald Trump's Skepticism Over Obama's Long Form Original Birth Certificate, It Wouldn't Surprise Me If He Begins To Rant & Rave Via The Mainstream Media About Wanting To See Osama's Body To Accept That He's Really Dead!

Of Course I'm Just Being Facetious.

So Much For All Those Rumors About Pres. Obama Being A Muslim & A Terrorist Sympathizer.

Just For The Record Osama Bin Laden Was Responsible For The Deaths Of Both Muslims & Americans.

Even If Pres. Obama Was A Muslim (He Isn't), Osama Bin Laden Hated Him Too.

Now That Osama Bin Laden Is Dead The World Needs To Begin Praying For America Because Retaliation Towards Our Nation Is Most Certainly To Be Expected From Al-Qaeda Operatives.

Thank God For Pres. Obama's Strategic Security Moves Last Week Of Placing Gen. Petraeus Over The CIA & Panetta Over The Dept Of Defense.

Such Excellent Decisions!!

No Doubt Obama Should Remain In The White House!

God Bless The Families Of 9-11 Victims, The Obama Administration & The United States Of America!

VOTE OBAMA IN 2012!!

Bin Laden Dead, U.S. Official Says


President Obama announced late Sunday that Osama bin Laden, the leader of Al Qaeda responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks, was killed in a firefight during an operation he ordered inside Pakistan, ending a 10 year manhunt for the world’s most wanted terrorist. American officials were in possession of his body, he said.

The fate of Ayman al-Zawahiri, the Al Qaeda number two in command, was unclear.

The death of Mr. Bin Laden is a huge punctuation in the American-led war on terrorism. What remains to be seen is whether the death of the leader of Al Qaeda galvanizes his followers by turning him into a martyr, or whether it serves as a turning of the page in the war in Afghanistan and gives further impetus to the Obama administration to bring American troops home.

One American official said that American forces, acting on intelligence, launched a “targeted assault” that killed Mr. Bin Laden, whose ability to elude capture for so long deeply frustrated the Bush administration.

The news of the death of the leader of Al Qaeda was bound to electrify the world, particularly as it comes a full decade after American forces, under President Bush, launched their all-out assault to find the man responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks.

Since those attacks, Mr. bin Laden was able to elude capture by hiding out in the mountains of Afghanistan and elsewhere. He initially escaped from Tora Bora in the mountains of eastern Afghanistan after an American invasion routed the Taliban, his protectors. Since then, he issued some 30 messages, in audio, video or electronic text. Intelligence officials believe they were passed from hand to hand repeatedly to obscure any trail back to his hiding place.

Even while in hiding, he remained a potent symbolic figure. And American officials believe, based on intercepted communications from second- and third-tier Qaeda operatives, that he also still helped shape Al Qaeda’s strategy.
