Osama Bin Laden Dead

Here’s the guy who unwittingly live-tweeted the raid on Bin Laden
Here’s the guy who unwittingly live-tweeted the raid on Bin Laden

Yesterday Sohaib Athar (@ReallyVirtual on Twitter - Twitter ) was just a “an IT consultant taking a break from the rat-race by hiding in the mountains”, specifically Abbottabad, northern Pakistan.

The IT contractor and graduate of Preston University (which would account for his excellent British-sounding English) also says he’s a ‘startup specialist’ on his LinkedIn profile.

But today he will become known as the guy who, while live-tweeting a series of helicopter flypasts and explosion, unwittingly covered the US forces helicopter raid on Osama Bin Laden’s compound. And he knows it. Here’s a selection of his Tweets:

What a testimony to the resolve of the US military. Almost 10 years later and they are still working hard to bring terrorists to justice.
 
Some days I wish I believed in Hell. Oh well, I'll just have to be satisfied that he's fish food and crab chow now.
 
I'm just waiting for the "deather" movement to take off! I'm sure that Obama has enough experience dealing with proving birth that his administration must be fully prepared to proving Bin Laden's death.

Inside Sources: Bin Laden’s Corpse Has Been On Ice For Nearly a Decade

A multitude of different inside sources both publicly and privately, including one individual who personally worked with Bin Laden at one time, told us directly that Osama’s dead corpse has been on ice for nearly a decade and that his “death” would only be announced at the most politically expedient time.

ThinkProgress Meet The Deathers: Andrew Brietbart Website Pushing Conspiracy Theory That Osama Might Not Be Dead

Mere hours after President Obama announced the death of Osama bin Laden, supported by incontrovertible DNA evidence, the conspiracy theorists are hard at work. Andrew Breitbart, a prominent right-wing commentator with close ties to the Republican Party and the Tea Party, is pushing the theory on his website Big Peace.


[The nice or best thing about these faux stories/reports is they expose the nutbags. This is the same for the "Birthers." Once exposed, it is clear for their agenda. And, I laugh at their desperation.]

Oh nooooo!!!! ... Not a war for my mind!!!! ... Pretty sure the goddam fucking racist idiots wouldn't much like what they find there.

Oh god, this genius thinks we should've Mussolini'd him at Ground Zero. http://bigpeace.com/jmwaller/2011/05/02/display-bin-ladens-body-at-ground-zero-then-destroy-the-al-qaeda-legacy/. Hell, while were at it why not burn a few Korans during the "viewing" just for good measure.
...
Goddam fucking racist idiots.

more right wing bullshit from Crisler

Osama is dead

1) "After hearing president Obama's statement following the
military, AND hearing the comments regarding his bragging about his
own involvement, I am going to have to break with my Conservative
pals. I actually think Mr. Obama was being far, far too humble.

What is NOT being released to the public is the fact president
Obama personally led the mission, on the ground. He was the first
one down the fast rope. Not only did he personally kill Bin Ladin,
he also flew the helicopters--ALL of them!"

2) "What complete rubbish! Straight from the mouth of that scumbag
Barbara Streisand (and her loser husband)."

3) "But ANY woman--no matter how ridiculous her story (i.e. Anita
Hill's silly story which led to the high tech lynching of Clarence
Thomas--clearly racism by the Democrats, as they couldnot have a
man of color rise within the Republican ranks)

Planned Parenthood is an abortion clinic. THAT is the objection for
those who believe abortion is murder of those unable to defend
themselves. And MANY PP clinics don't even offer such female health
care.

And this so-called "pay inequality" is just something for the Dems
(like when Obama needs to try to rally his subjects and slow his
falling numbers) use to raise votes and money. For there is NO "pay
inequality! None of the studies purporting to "prove" it exists
subtracted for the years women leave the workforce to make and
raise babies, or the extra time off from work for health care
reasons. When all is accounted for, their pay is within 98% of
American adult males. And since men can perform more types of work,
this evens it all out."

Obama Says He Won’t Release Photos of Bin Laden’s Corpse
Obama Says He Won’t Release Bin Laden Photos - NYTimes.com

[An excellent and only right decision.]

By MARK LANDLER
Published: May 4, 2011

WASHINGTON — President Obama has decided not to release photographs of Osama bin Laden’s body, CBS News reported on Wednesday. Mr. Obama apparently concluded that images of Bin Laden bloodied by gunshots would do little to reassure skeptics but could inflame tensions in the Muslim world. He disclosed his decision in an interview for the CBS program “60 Minutes,” part of which will be broadcast on the network’s evening news programs Wednesday.

The debate over whether to release photos of Bin Laden had consumed the White House over the last two days. Some senior officials said the release of photos was inevitable. On Tuesday, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency, Leon E. Panetta, said he did not think “there was any question that ultimately a photograph would be presented to the public.”

But officials at the Pentagon and State Department expressed qualms about releasing gruesome photos of Bin Laden’s bloodied corpse, with some arguing that the photos would not silence those who doubt that he was killed. Some lawmakers also opposed releasing the photos, arguing that doing so would serve little purpose and could endanger American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“Imagine how the American people would react if Al Qaeda killed one of our troops or military leaders, and put photos of the body on the Internet,” said Representative Mike Rogers, Republican of Michigan and chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. “Osama bin Laden is not a trophy. He is dead, and let’s now focus on continuing the fight until Al Qaeda has been eliminated.”

The White House said that Mr. Obama would take part on Thursday in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Sept. 11 memorial in lower Manhattan. He is also scheduled to meet with relatives of the victims of the 2001 terrorist attacks, but he will not make a speech. The White House invited former president George W. Bush to accompany Mr. Obama in New York, but Mr. Bush declined, his spokesman said.

The plans came as further details emerged about the raid on Bin Laden’s fortified house in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Administration officials said that after members of the Navy Seals shot and killed Bin Laden, they found that he had money — 500 euros (about $746) — and two telephone numbers sewn into his robes. That suggested that Bin Laden had an escape plan, which he was not able to carry out when American helicopters landed in the compound.

Administration officials reiterated that Bin Laden had not tried to surrender in the final moments of his life, and that that justified the use of lethal force by the Navy Seals. On Wednesday, Attorney General Eric Holder laid out a broader justification, citing Bin Laden’s role as the mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks.

“It was justified as an act of national self-defense,” Mr. Holder told the Senate Judiciary Committee. “If he had surrendered, attempted to surrender, I think we should obviously have accepted that. But there was no indication that he wanted to do that and therefore his killing was appropriate.”

Sarah Palin accused President Barack Obama of “pussy-footing” Wednesday over his decision not to release a photo of Osama bin Laden.

“Show photo as warning to others seeking America's destruction,” Palin wrote on Twitter. “No pussy-footing around, no politicking, no drama; it's part of the mission.” Twitter

White House press secretary Jay Carney defended the decision to not release a photo of the deceased bin Laden during his briefing Wednesday. “I think Americans and people around the world are glad that he is gone. But we don't need to spike the football,” Carney said, adding that it “would create some national security risk.”

Palin’s tweet came two days after a more nuanced foreign policy speech in Lakewood, Colo., in which she advocated less foreign involvement.
