How he was got I still haven't heard apart from you.
Was he killed in a mansion outside Islamabad?

Most likely the most important factor that contributed to Osama’s death was simply time. As time passes it is natural for humans to loss enthusiasm for any operation. Constantly moving clandestinely from place to place would be tiring but it would keep one alive. As time passed and he managed to stay alive and his confidence increased he got careless.

It is now out Osama two of his sons and two other adults were shot by US troops
The small crack team carried out the attack on a mansion in Abbottabad, Pakistan, about 65km from the capital city Islamabad, where bin Laden had been in hiding.
"After a fire fight, they killed bin Laden and took custody of his body,
It is now a strange place to be
1 will the next leader of the Al-Qaeda orgqnisation be even more extreemest than what we had?
2 Are the threats of rtalition as real as they could be, eg the dirty bombs in Europ and more air line attacks in the US?
3 IS there going to be an end to the arguing about if the troops should be coming home now? I for one hate the idea of any person having to be away from home fighting a war that they didn't start. But they are there and I believe they would rather stay and finish what was started than leave before it is safe for everyone
Well if someone could shut Bob Brown {leader of the Greens Party} up at least then we might get something intelegent out of our capital.
That does not in any way include any statement or comment made by Taff or Hen

This was sent to me this morning
"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" -- Martin Luther King, Jr
Well I think it is relivent

Hey Aardy, that quote, though it may be relevant, isn't actually a MLK quote. I was and I'm sure many will be, surprised to lean that.
The sentence “I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy” was the sentiment of a Facebook user, Jessica Dovey.
The 24-year-old university graduate, an American, now teaching English in Japan, picked up her iPhone before bed and found a Martin Luther King, Jr. quote from his book, “The Strength of Love.” She posted her take on that quote as her status on Facebook; her take used the same quote, but altered the punctuation. Her friends then copied and pasted the status, and bloggers, tweeters and Facebookers rapidly took it on alike.

Funny how these things spread.
