Osama Bin Laden is DEAD

[Jordy]

As David Starkey pointed out yesterday it's worrying how we become our enemy. The scenes in New York of people celebrating Bin laden's death can only be compared to scenes seen in the Middle East, the west never used to celebrate deaths like that. The use of torture to gain this information, holding people without trial and not giving Bin Laden a trial are further examples of how we're turning into our enemy in some respects which is a very bad thing indeed. How on earth are we supposed to have the moral high-ground anymore?

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a good thing he's been killed without doubt and he may well of deserved it but American attitudes and abuses of human rights are worrying.

Well if you believe that the US have killed him, then yes.

Not sure why that matters. Just the way the world turns - there is big news every week (like really big news) in general, so just chance I guess

Conspiracy theory: Bin Laden paid the Americans to fake his death for him.

Not releasing the photo of his corpse. Hmm, suspicious.

to be fair, it isn't really suspicious, it's a man who got shot in the head, it's not surprising they won't release the images, it was a stupid idea in the first place, it's against the law in a lot of countries to post images of such things online. America wouldn't claim he was dead unless he really was dead, because it'd be so much trouble if he resurfaced. The only suspicious thing about it is the issues surrounding how they found him and what actually happened when they did, if you ask me.

Very true. I've just seen some photos of some of the other bodies and let's just say, they aren't the most pretty things you will ever see and they are quite grim indeed. With a photo or without a photo, speculation will always be around in regards of his death for people. If a photo did get released, people could be like "Omg it's a fake" and all of that crap. I do believe what the US are saying is correct in regards of him being dead and so on.

They released graphic photos of three Pakistanis shot dead in the compound, so why not bin Laden? Because his brain was exposed? Everyone's seen JFK's morgue photos, everyone's seen the video of his head being blown apart, everyone's seen Saddam Hussein's hanging, everyone's seen Hussein's corpse with the bloody bone sticking out of his neck, everyone's seen the official photos released of Hussein's two dead sons. If people want to look at it, then they should be able to. I for one want to see bin Laden's corpse. If people don't, they don't have to look at it.
