Now, they are saying he got it in Islamabad, Pakistan at a mansion...and some of his family members got it too....

Dont want to put the negative twist out there, but lets remember al-Qaeda is everywhere in the world, they may disappear, scared now without their leader, or they may strike because they are ticked off now. We don't know what plans they had. I hope they plan on addressing this, in addition to this being a huge victory for the US (even though it "only" cost us how many thousands in lives, 13 years, and how many billions of $$???)

[dinarck]

WOW!!! I always figured he was in Iran.

[lionfish]

Osama bin Laden getting killed? Could this be it?

[Dynomike]

Most likely its about us getting Bin Laden

Hello dear, I have to agree that to me the first thought was like when a wasp is killed in his nest it just makes the other wasps angry and they do everything in their power to retaliate .... I pray this not be the case but it sure is a time to beef up security imho.

bless us all,

and I'm just hearing that we're under a "heightened state of alert".

BIN LADEN IS DEAD.........................................nice

[kinglizzy99]

He's gonna address the death of Bin Laden...

[Dalite]

This may lend credibility to reports of Dinar speculation sites being leaned on to stop posting info...

The dinar sites have put the microscope on info from assets in the region.

If there is any truth to the embargo on sharing "intel", it may point to who may have been receiving actual pertinent info from the region.

This is a wild, out of the box speculation, but may be worth watching closer...

Fox News is reporting its about Osama Bin Laden killed in a airstrike last week.

About time they nailed him!

[speculatorsRIDE]

It was not an airstrike. This was done by a ground operation. Apparently we went in and got him.

Yes, CNN just had a correspondent on that said he was shot in the head, and we actually crossed over into Pakistan to get the body....going to be interesting hearing what Pakistan is going to say about that.

[Seabee]

As per my daughter who is in the military. She says that all military bases were put on a higher alert Sat. The reason was about the Kadafi (spelling) family killing. I believe that the Prez stepped up the alert ahead of an anouncement tonight as a ruse to the Kadafi family

[speculatorsRIDE]

Pakistani officials have confirmed that Osama Bin Laden was killed in mansion on the outskirts of Islamabad.

[txsrooster]

They said bullet to the head...hope for the best...prepare for the worse. I got my Military go bag packed. Hoping there is not a reason for them to call me up again.

Hello sweetie! The first thing I thought of was, you know there had to have been a plan in place, in other words...who would be his predecessor in case he ever was killed. Lets get ready for the tidal wave of info that is going to come out now.

[littlesam]

me too...if they should call you back up I just want to thank you for your service for keeping us safe..thanks

[easyrider]

This could get very intresting now will al queida give up and let by gones be by gones or will they retaliate o how i pray this whole war is over and no more lives are lost.

[speculatorsRIDE]

Pres just gave official 2 minute warning for conference

The attack took place today and was ordered by Obama.

It was not done a week ago as reported earlier.

just want to say here that he said it happened TODAY ... not a week ago as someone on some bin laden thread said.
