BIN LADEN DEAD, U.S. OFFICIAL SAYS
By HELENE COOPER
Published: May 1, 2011
WASHINGTON — Osama bin Laden has been killed, two United States officials said. President Obama was expected to make an announcement on Sunday night, almost ten years after the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
One of the officials 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.
***
So the other week, I watched the Celtics and the Knicks with some friends. We were shooting the shit about the rest of the league before the game. Talking about Lebron James’ Mom and what-not. My boy, Chris, was really liking how Derrick Rose was playing. Chris is from Texas and has only lived in Boston for 2 years, but he is way into basketball and has always been a die-hard Celtics fan.
I think the day before I had watched a Denver-Oklahoma game and saw some article questioning whether the Western Conference needed some new blood. So I jokingly predicted that I thought the Hornets would take it all this year. I believe the Spurs had also lost the first game of their series the previous weekend and Chris mockingly responded that anybody could beat the Lakers or the Spurs once.
I haven’t payed much attention to basketball since then. I’ve been following the Bruins and spending too much time with women on Newbury Street. So when I tuned into the Celtics-Heat Game one today, I was shocked to see the the Grizzlies beating the Thunder at the tail-end of the Game 1 of the Western Semi-Final Series. The who? That’s right. The Grizzlies. Watch out, Lakers?
***
The Playoffs are exciting, but we need to be careful and pay attention to the bigger issues. Why were Petraeus and Panetta moved just days before Osama was taken out? Why did Obama spend Saturday Night at the correspondents’ dinner telling so many jokes about Donald Trump? Couldn’t he spread the Love? Is this really Presidential or good Leadership? He knew then what was about to happen.
And now that Bin Laden is gone, can we get out of Afghanistan already?
I was and still am completely opposed to any US intervention in Libya. But now that Saturday’s NATO strike appearing to be a clear case of a war crime has put the lie to the pretense of a “no-fly zone” and this is obviously a full-on war – don’t you think it is about time to send the First Marine Division ashore at Tripoli and end this thing right. I mean, Obama did promise that this would be a matter of days, not weeks, kinda thing. It was bad enough that he had to fabricate a potential genocide. Really?

Libya: The Bizarro War
We’re killing civilians in order to save them
by Justin Raimondo, May 02, 2011
Because it looks like we’re going to be trapped in this alternate dimension – where up is down and truth is lies – for quite a long time to come. Instead of crumbling like all the other Arab despots who face their day of reckoning, Gadhafi has survived – in some measure, I would argue, because of UN intervention. Without that, it’s likely the eccentric tyrant – although he might have temporarily retaken Benghazi – would’ve fallen victim to the same seismic forces that toppled his neighbors: Ben Ali, in Tunisia, and Egypt’s Mubarak. His regime was saved by the cavalry – the NATO bombers that are daily wreaking devastation on the Libyan people.

I hate parsing words, but why didn’t they just capture the man? The news release I read on CNN says they killed Osama “after” a fire fight. Does that literally mean they killed him after the fight, like they had an option? If so, why kill him? I can guess why, as in dead men tell no tales. Per Obama, the CIC, upmost care was taken not to kill any innocent civilians, and they had been planning the attack for months, since at least August, 2010. They were Navy seals, so they were highly trained. Even ordinary police know how to capture a high value target without killing them, if there is potentially useful information to be had via interrogation.
Like all things related to 911, it stinks. Our government is not trustworthy. It’s sickening to listen to that BS official story coming out of Obama, and you know justice will never be served with shills like him in charge. Osama was an enemy of the US and the west, to be sure, but why the summary execution and quick burial at sea? Stinks.

Couple of thoughts regarding the assassination of OBL:
1. Where’s any photographic evidence of a body? Any photos of the hangout? After all the BS and outright lies regarding OBL during the Bush reighn, including actors that were clearly not OBL, they expect us to just take their word for it?
2. Regarding Obama’s assurances that no civilians were harmed, a woman was shot and killed that was being used as a human shield by one of OBL’s men. We can logically conclude that she must have been a terrorist also, since Obama said no civilians were harmed. I didn’t know Islamic terrorists were co-ed. Also note the courage and level of restraint displayed by those attacking seals.
3. Apparently during the fire fight, OBL was killed with a head shot. Does that sound like SOP for a Navy Seal on a high-value target capture? Perhaps this will be used to hide any photographic evidence of a body.

A farce? What makes you so sure? If this is fiction then how would you see it playing differently if it were true? Anotherwords if Bin Laden’s location was discovered, how would this or some other response have gone down in a more plausible way? What would be different? Display the body? Can’t do that. Personally, I think the basic reported story of the assault is probably legit. Whether he was killed or is presently strapped to a gurney somewhere with electrodes attached his nuts, singing like a canary or not, awaiting his ultimate execution and cremation, I don’t know. And I don’t much care.

Per CNN this AM: “There are also photographs of the body with a gunshot wound to the side of the head that shows an individual who is recognizable as bin Laden, a U.S. government official said. No decision has yet been made on whether to release the photographs and if so, when and how.”
No photos, no proof. They’d better had used a good camera.
And this: “A senior administration official said later that the woman who died was not bin Laden’s wife and may not have been used as a human shield, as originally reported. Nor did bin Laden have a gun, as earlier reports had indicated, the senior official said.”
What do you call the attack and killing of an unarmed man other than an assassination? How come Saddam, Geronimo, et al., got better deals?

So anyway, there I was at the check-out of my local Home & Ranch store, my cart laden with 40 lb. bags of sunflower seed for birds, some suet, Finch feed and a surplus .50 ammo tin they had in stock. I asked the cashier to add several bags of manure and top soil.
She scans the bar codes for the manure and top soil from samples in her little cashiers book then proceeds to scan the bags in my cart, then scan the smaller items I had placed on the counter.
A screen pops up asking for ID. She says she needs to see my drivers license. I said “You’re kidding me. You need to see my drivers license for an empty surplus ammo tin?”
I show my her my DL as she relates the Readers Digest version of a recent similar encounter with someone considerably more emotionally distraught over the, ah, inconvenience.
By virtue of being licensed to conceal carry, owning several store-purchased firearms and purchasing ammunition by the case from an Internet-based supplier, the PTB already know what they want to know, so showing ID for a used ammo tin wasn’t about perceived privacy.
I have no idea as to whether or not this is some new law, poor POS programming (if “ammo”, then tilt) or just some corporate lawyers letting paranoia run deep (OMG – it has the word “ammo”!), but it is absurd and it is the absurdity that gets my eyebrow cocked.

Whether or not OBL is no longer a living breathing sentient being or not is almost moot as the Empire has declared him dead in a most public manner. OBL served the Empire well and the declaration of his demise marks the end of his direct service to the needs and goals of the Empire.
His likeness will no longer be featured prominently on the facade used to justify the MIC and State security organs. He had grown long in the tooth, the value of the paint needed to maintain his place on the facade exceeded his usefulness to the needs of the Empire, even when adjusted for inflation. Even the very facade of the global war on terror is looking a little low rent these days.
Look for some facade renovation, giving greater prominence to resource wars, domestic civil unrest and terrorism.

No body and now no photos. Obama uses possible offense as excuse to withhold them. Well, what about the offense of sending in a hit team to assassinate him, an unarmed man, and killing or wounding members of his immediate family? Where’s the physical proof? Where’s the moral high ground of justice served?
They lie to Americans all the time, and then expect us to trust them at their word under suspicious circumstances, e.g., rapid disposal of the body. Sorry, no dice. Not that I care an iota whether they got him or not. It’s not their ends, it’s their means, but their hubris won’t allow them to see that.
This all adds to the giant stinking pile they created with the events on 9-11. Evidence of nanothermite and vaporized steel in the building dust and physics proof of WTC demolitions (free fall) a high school student could muster. I recall they were in a big hurry to destroy the evidence back then, as well. They scrapped the steel, but couldn’t sweep up all the dust in time. Telltale heart.

Look at the bright side. At least this time you won’t have to fuss over micro metal droplets in your searching for a smoking gun. Instead its big giant hunks of stealth helicopter skin providing that ninja spook techno element. ABC news says eager Pakis could be seen gathering up all the precious shards and trucking them away, to hand over to the Chinese presumably. So question is why would our guys employ and risk losing one of our top secret weapons of the empire on phony mission? Well maybe the downed bird was a stunt double fake stealth chopper, augured into the compound for dramatic effect. That’s it! Boy these guys in black are good.

After the events of 9-11, the extent of the foolery pulled by the PTB in our federal government on its own people apparently knows no bounds. Some folks think the assasination was all a political stunt timed to help their man Obama get re-elected. Others speculate that it was staged (real or not) to gain support for an exit plan from Afghanistan, since it’s obviously become a quagmire and big drain on the weak economy. Declare victory and leave, just like Vietnam.
Regarding OBL, some think he’s been dead for years now, an old man with kidney problems, on dialysis and living on the lamb in a less than optimum medical services area. Others think he died in the US pounding of the Tora Bora stronghold. During the Bush era, the US military-intelligence PR folks were parading actors as OBL that were so poorly matched it was laughable, so the video clips were pulled. OBL has been a convenient boogyman for the US for a long time, but the narrative in the MENA has apparently changed and he is no longer needed to be “at large”.
Need I go on regarding the need for proof of OBL authenticity? Maybe they shot Jimmy Hoffa, by mistake. How embarrassing.

‘When 9/11 happened, music genius Karlheinz Stockhausen said – to the outrage of millions of Americans – that “this was the greatest work of art the world has ever seen.” He had a point as 9/11 – in terms of its impact upon the collective unconscious of mankind, almost to the point of paralysis – reduced Albert Speer’s and Leni Riefenstahl’s specials to child’s play.
So to symbolically kill the “war on terror” – which was invented because of 9/11 – Obama had to (literally) kill the (alleged) perpetrator, be it real or not, guilty or not, a clone or not. Thus the hit, the swift disposal of the body, no photos, end of the movie, no credits rolling; a tight cinematic narrative. The obvious holes in the plot, as in any Hollywood blockbuster, are deemed irrelevant; what matters is success at the box-office – and we move on.’

2. it would have too hard to keep under raps if he had died at some earlier time.
so, i think he was killed recently and then dumped in the ocean, i think. the rational behind this is murky.

Here’s a calculation.
The headline yesterday on the news stands for USA Today said something to the affect that Public confidence in the War on Terror boosted by OBL raid, but the ‘Public’ was ‘worried’ about retaliation.
Hmm, I don’t think Orwell himself could have written a better piece.
It hit all the high notes. The fabricated ‘war on terror’ boondoggle is working, praisethelord. It’s effective, even if it took ten years, trillions of dollars, and millions of lives to ‘get’ one Master Mind.
Even that useless douche of an Attorney General Eric Holder was trotted out into the limelight for a bow, taking precious time out from his massive campaign of arresting and indicting Wall St sociopaths and assorted financial terrorists to blow a kiss to the studio audience and tell them the Justice Department has their backs covered.
God bless Duhmerica.
And here I thought on the previous thread that all the talk about getting a cold tractor engine started was a cleverly disguised metaphor for carefully unthawing OBL from deep freeze with a propane torch to get the War on Terra started again.
The official scripted packaged mediawhore story line for the OBL ‘take down’ reads like the Dead Parrot skit from the Pythons.
We were sold a ‘live’ Bin Laden parrot for the last tens years but he was really just nailed to the perch and pining for The Hajj.

Is it a cosmic karmic payback that we’re downwind of this nuclear debacle?
May 14, 2011 at 12:20 am
Dr. Doom
Let’s see now, we invent the atomic fission weapon, we drop the first few made on Japan, we help them rebuild and in the 1960s, we sell them the Fuku fission reactors as a “safe” form of energy production. By 2011, a tsunami, the so-called tidal wave formally named by the Japanese because they are so common there, surprises them and triggers multiple meltdowns of same fission reactors, spreading the radioactive materials produced in them over North America. Yup, I’d say that’s a cosmic karmic payback if there ever was one.

What’s the point of studying CO2 systematics when we all know the root cause is fossil fuel combustion? What’s behind all the past and ongoing, proposed studies? As if we better understood all the ins and outs of the CO2 cycle, that that would somehow excuse what we’ve done and continue to do? It won’t, and so it just takes up valuable time and energy/efforts of scientists and moron taxpayer money they don’t even have. It’s like the Fuku fook ups pouring water over melted coreium masses going in and out of criticality. What’s the point, exactly? Keeping busy? Go to the beach already, and let some serious adults decide what’s best to do, if anything can be done, that is.

‘”INDIANAPOLIS | Overturning a common law dating back to the English Magna Carta of 1215, the Indiana Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Hoosiers have no right to resist unlawful police entry into their homes.
In a 3-2 decision, Justice Steven David writing for the court said if a police officer wants to enter a home for any reason or no reason at all, a homeowner cannot do anything to block the officer’s entry.
“We believe … a right to resist an unlawful police entry into a home is against public policy and is incompatible with modern Fourth Amendment jurisprudence,” David said. “We also find that allowing resistance unnecessarily escalates the level of violence and therefore the risk of injuries to all parties involved without preventing the arrest.”‘

Less happy, why? We have a system where you are imprisoned (to be educated) during your childhood years, Then you are supposed to struggle, grind, lie, cheat and steal to make a pile of cash and support your family during your working years. Then when you are old you must spend the cash lavishly but in vain on trying to restore your failed health and abused body. What’s not to like?
