it wouldn't have taken 10 years and drones civilian casualties this many if Pakistan had been honest and really cooperated with the NATO/US forces in the hunt. Instead they chose to play a double game and are the primary reason why so many civilians died.
It would've been a lot easier had they sealed Pak-Afghan border so there wouldn't have been any crossing of borders but somebody was more interested in listening to mayor of Kabul.
also LP, since you believe Osama being in hiding with the alleged aid of Pakistan is the reason why so many civilians got killed, do you now believe that America will pack up its bags and leave the region? After all the 'hunt' is over isnt it.
How can you feel sad for justice done, for the death Usama Bin Laden who was responsible for the murder of thousands of innocent people? Is our world not a safer place today without the mastermind of 9/11 attacks? Should we not view this as a great stride forward in our fight against terrorism? As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton stated, “History will record that Bin Laden’s death came at a time of great movements toward freedom and democracy, at a time when the people across the Middle East and North Africa are rejecting the extremist narratives and charting a path of peaceful progress based on universal rights and aspirations. There is no better rebuke to Al-Qaida and its heinous ideology.”
Usama bin Laden is no longer a threat to America, our allies or to peace-loving Muslims, but Al- Qaeda remains a threat and we will continue our fight against them. Bin Laden’s death is only one part of our overall goal of disrupting, dismantling, and ultimately defeating Al-Qaeda and their violent allies like the TeT. Although the fight against Al Qaeda is far from over, this is a significant achievement in that fight in which the world can take comfort. His death does not mean we are leaving Afghanistan, nor does it change our commitment to providing a secure and stable environment for Afghans. We will continue to train Afghan security forces in accordance with the Afghan government until they are independently capable of protecting the great sovereign nation of Afghanistan. Our phased drawdown from Iraq in 2011 provides the perfect example how our plan to successfully withdraw from Afghanistan by 2014 will work. We remain committed to peace and stability throughout the region, and continue to work with those who, unlike Usama Bin Laden, desire peace and show a willingness to help create a better life for all.
the same country that desecrated the holy Quran as part of "harsh interrogation methods" now has so much respect for Islam that it gave the world's most wanted man a funeral and burial per the "Islamic traditions" just hours after his death.
a 40 min intense fire fight........hmm one sick old man, an old woman, and a rent a guard against 2 helicopters full of ELITE special forces
hahahahhaah
I don't know who to feel more sorry for, the thousands of innocents who died in this process or the people stupid enough to believe the crap that is fed to them.
we've been hearing the 'world is a safer place' nonsense from americans for a long time. when saddam was overthrown the world was a safer place. ofcourse this safer world has over 100,000 fewer Iraqies in it than it otherwise would have, but maybe accounting lives is a bit too literal when it comes to the question of safety.

Feel sorry for yourself and your country!!!
Your ISI, Army and special commandos were not able to locate and kill the "sick old man"
Feel sorry for the fellow Peace loving Pakistanis, who will have to come under more scrutiny at the airports beacuse of their incompetent and unethical Govt.
OBL is eliminated and that's a good thing.
To those who think this is fake news..
Do you think if it were true it would be a good thing?
I enjoy a good conspiracy theory or two, but whether he was killed now, a year ago or whatever or whether he had 2 guards or 1800 is irrelevant.

It is actually very relevant for people who are going to be running for the next US presidential elections. I mean the timing of it.
Look at the approval ratings of Obama right after this, just for instance.
I am beyond embarrassed as a Pakistani . Kayani and the entire army and Intelligence operation should jump in the ocean with Bin Laden. These people are supposed to defend us? The army is the biggest joke in the world today, a laughing stock. Worst day for Pakistan since the loss of East Pakistan. Shame shame shame.

some people here believe that a peace loving old man who was sick should not been killed like this, americans were unnecessary hunting him he did not know even what 9/11 is , few here even ready to believe 9/11 was a drama created by jews,cia, hindu, …….
