U.S. Navy SEALS Kill Osama Bin Laden
By Wyatt Earp | May 2, 2011
Rot in Hell, you murderous piece of garbage!
U.S. helicopters ferrying elite counter-terrorism troops into the compound identified by the CIA as bin Laden’s hideout — and back out again in less than 40 minutes. Bin Laden was shot in the head, officials said, after he and his bodyguards resisted the assault.
Three adult males were also killed in the raid, including one of bin Laden’s sons, whom officials did not name. One of bin Laden’s sons, Hamza, is a senior member of al-Qaida. U.S. officials also said one woman was killed when she was used as a shield by a male combatant, and two other women were injured.
Bin Laden was buried at sea. Hopefully, they stuffed his gullet with pork rinds first.

1. I hope they wrapped his body in bacon before dumping him into shark infested waters!
2. I would have really enjoyed watching him dancing the hempen jig though!!!
May 2nd, 2011 at 7:45 am
I’m just sorry it took so long to get him. Obama FINALLY did something right. I just hope that this does not help his re-election. America can now move on and get our stuff together. WE ARE NUMBER ONE!!!!

L Frame – Better this way. No trial, no hand-wringing, just dumping the body off a ship and sailing away.
Roger – No matter how the politics of this play out, it’s not about him. It’s not about George W. Bush. It’s about SEAL Team Six. They’re the real heroes here, and the only thing that matters – to me – is that bin Laden is dead.
May 2nd, 2011 at 7:54 am
Not the porcine-induced rectal trauma I was really REALLY hoping that Bin Laden would suffer in his final agonizing hours, but dead is dead….

BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
You mean beheaded on video and then torched, mutilated, dragged through the streets and hung from a bridge?

Wyatt:
God, how I love a happy ending..no matter how long it takes!
I would have cremated him, spread the ashes in a pig sty, and then smashed them together with a SHOE.
(I’m “old-fashioned” in that regard)
Roll safe.

Fenway – Washington does that so as to “not provoke” the Muzzies. I say, who the frak cares if they’re provoked? You don’t think the raid itself won’t provoke these animals?
And I agree with Ace: It’s time to revoke Pakistan’s American aid.
Bob G. – Eh, dead is dead. That’s good enough for me.
May 2nd, 2011 at 8:24 am
Forgive me for being pessimistic here.
Killed, identified, and buried at sea all in the same day? Or am I missing something?
May 2nd, 2011 at 8:24 am
I am gonna be…Dancing in the streets, passing out sweets’ later today. For this comment I will be using the
name President Obama rather than my usual obambi. Good job President Obama, still not going to vote for you in 2012, unless (and to paraphrase William Wallace in the movie Braveheart)
“You present yourself before this populace, apologize for 50 years of rampant liberalism, bend over to put your head between your legs, and kiss your own arse.”
May 2nd, 2011 at 8:41 am
I agree Wyatt, the 80,000 lb gorilla in the room, standing next to the 50,000 lb elephant who is being ridden by the 6,000 lb bear with the 2,000 lb dog barking at all of them is…he was protected by elements of the ISI and Pakistani army, LO, all these years. Maybe we could get India to launch a pre-emptive nuke strike on them by engineering some kind of Kashmiri border clash scenario? Only as long as its 100% effective of course
and no nukes fly India’s way.
May 2nd, 2011 at 8:41 am
God bless our SEAL teams, avenging the deaths of their fellow soldiers on the USS Cole, and countless others.
May 2nd, 2011 at 8:55 am
Kim – Little fast, if you ask me. Apparently, the WH has photos of bin Laden’s carcass, but is refusing to release them. Lame.
Jon – I’ll give Obama props for having the cojones to order the strike, but I maintain the right to withdraw said props if he uses this for political gain.
Piper – And 3,000 people who were murdered on 9-11.
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:06 am
God Bless Navy Seal Team 6, the true heroes of the past few days and all the men and women in uniform and those who have served this country. Now on to Zawahiri.
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:07 am
Even Phillies and Mets fans united to cheer for this. What a great day. I know I’ll sleep a little easier tonite.
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:10 am
Jon – It’d be great if we sniped Zawahiri this week, too.
Dr. Evil – Yeah, I heard about that. Nothing brings a country together more than the death of a scumbag terrorist.
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:20 am
Behead this prick’s corpse and display it on a stick at the 9/11 museum. Put the rest of him in a blender with about 50 lbs of bacon, then ship it to Mecca with a 20 megaton high yield nuclear weapon on a time delayed fuse. Not that I’m opinionated or anything…
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:29 am
And may his 72 virgins all look like Rosie O’Donnell…
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:31 am
We killed the rat bastard! Kudos to the Navy Seals!!!
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:47 am
Tony F – At least his remains would smell delicious!
Ferrell – Or Rachel Maddow.
MeToo – Agreed. And no one was killed. Well, none of the good guys.
May 2nd, 2011 at 10:11 am
Mark Twain speaks to us from the past on this event:
“I have never wished another dead, but have read some obituaries with great enthusiasm.”
May 2nd, 2011 at 11:03 am
A more fitting disposal of his carcass would have been to put him on display with his head in a bed of dog shit and pigs blood, and his mouth stuffed full of pussy hairs, and we could all just walk up and piss on his face!
May 2nd, 2011 at 11:14 am
Luco Brazzi and UBL sleep with the fishes.
May 2nd, 2011 at 11:19 am
Jon – I wished many people dead. This guy is just one off a very long list.
Watuschski – Wow, how very graphic of you.
Jon – Hopefully, they’re nibbling on his carcass as we speak.
May 2nd, 2011 at 11:32 am
Osama bin Leaden, now chum for man-eating sharks.
May 2nd, 2011 at 11:41 am
Personally, I would have preferred that Osama’s corpse was fed to pigs and returned to his family in Saudi Arabia for burial as a hundred and fifty pounds of pig scat. With, perhaps, a video of the feeding provided to al-Jazeera for global broadcast, as a warning to future prospective jihadis.
Let Osama’s next of kin worry about “burial in accordance with Muslim tradition.” Our interest in him was purely a matter of pest control.
That said: It’s part of the Chicago Way for your enemies to “sleep with the fishes,” isn’t it?
May 2nd, 2011 at 11:54 am
Bob – Osama bin Rottin’ (at the bottom of the sea).
Wes S. – It’s not our responsibility to bury him in accordance with Muslim tradition. The only thing that does is shows respect to a terrorist who murdered thousands of people.
May 2nd, 2011 at 12:23 pm
Maybe he can console ‘Charlie the Tuna’ for not being good enough for Starkist and Charlie can console him for being a POS.
May 2nd, 2011 at 12:53 pm
Sorry, Wyatt, I get a bit carried away sometimes!
May 2nd, 2011 at 1:09 pm
Jon – Better than consoling Charlie Sheen.
Watuschski – No worries. It’s an emotional day.
May 2nd, 2011 at 2:20 pm
Osama’s final moments, courtesy of those insane Taiwanese animators:
Ouch.
May 2nd, 2011 at 3:20 pm
Call me suspicious, call me HIGHLY skeptical, call me anything you like, but I do NOT trust Barack Hussein Obama and his EVIL administration, not in ANY way, if Bin Laden’s body has been buried at sea, I am even MORE skeptical and in disbelief at this whole thing.
Think about it for a minute, Barack Hussein Obama’s poll numbers are in the tank, he is rapidly going down in history as the WORST President EVER, and all of a sudden there’s a supposedly REAL birth certificate for Barack Hussein Obama, and then, Osama bin Laden dead? All in one week?
Really? What’s next? Magic Fairy Dust, Unicorn farts and the Lucky Charms Leprechaun are going to fix the economy?
Americans were joyous last night. There was an impromptu gathering around the gates of the White House, people singing *God Bless America*, chanting USA, USA, USA. There were more impromptu gatherings at Ground Zero and in Times Square.
The joy is easily understandable, I was happy to hear the news too, and then reality hit me like a sack of cement.
May 2nd, 2011 at 6:04 pm
He Deeeeeaaaaddddd!
May 2nd, 2011 at 6:47 pm
Is it just me, or does the air smell a bit cleaner now?
BTW, all those virgins? All goats and camels. And all male. Have fun for eternity, pig poop.
May 2nd, 2011 at 7:26 pm
I think Fred’s right too. Rumor has it that OBL is staying in the Lincoln bedroom tonight after catching the Capital’s playoff game last night.
May 2nd, 2011 at 7:38 pm
so glad he is dead!!! go USA and navy seals.
May 2nd, 2011 at 8:25 pm
Wes S. – They NEVER disappoint.
TexasFred – Dude, stop it. If you don’t trust Bammy, fine. But judging by your comment, you don’t trust or believe the SEALs that were on the ground. Are they all in on the conspiracy? Please.
Allison – Yeah, he be!
Robert B. – Like a virgin would have this fugly dude.
Randal – He’s playing poker with Hitler and JFK this weekend.
Alex – Damned fine work by our special ops friends.
May 2nd, 2011 at 8:34 pm
Dumping that POS in the sea is a nasty thing to do to the sharks
May 2nd, 2011 at 9:30 pm
I think that is my favorite photo.
Glad he’s gone.
May 3rd, 2011 at 1:00 am
I will simply say that I am glad he is no longer able to injure, kill, or harm anybody in any way.
I believe that the cheering, the dancing in the streets, and the elation, while understandable, does not speak well of us. Agents of the United States government executed justice on this criminal. Justice was done. I am satisfied.
May 3rd, 2011 at 2:59 am
@ 11: Ooyah!
@ 12: Agreed.
@ 31: Yeah, one does wonder. But I trust the SEALs.
But most of all: @ 1: Damnit, you stole my line!
May 3rd, 2011 at 7:47 am
Congrats to USA. He hurt us too. Can anyone tell me though, did all the SEALS come out on the one chopper (after one broke down) or did they have a back up?
Dom (Australia)
May 3rd, 2011 at 7:51 am
Rick – Heartburn awaits.
RT – Me too.
Picky – I’m glad he’s dead, but I wouldn’t dance in the streets, considering close to 7,000 Americans died in the attack or the ensuing wars.
cmblake6 – Everything is better with bacon!
Dom – From what I read, they had another chopper standing by. The one that malfunctioned was destroyed by the SEALs before they left.
May 3rd, 2011 at 12:02 pm
Believe what U want…
This evil man, Murderous, No account Man will Killed with justification. No Trial/No Jury, this was the right way.
Whay can’t we all be Civil…
If you mess with the US, than Watch out behind you…
Love the US or get out!!!
May 3rd, 2011 at 6:33 pm
One last comment about this P.O.S. : Buried at sea from an aircraft carrier. If travelling at full (not flank) speed, about 30 mph, and tossed over the side, the body would hit at least two of the four 21ft. diameter propellors. Imagine the proverbial frog in a blender. Fitting reward for the @$$hole.
