    What would the world think of the US if he came out of his hole with some video just after this whole fanfair of having killed him?

    It would make us look like douchbags for lying

    It would shatter America's faith in Obama and probably be worse than Watergate

    It would make us look like idiots for not making sure the guy we claim we killed wasn't still alive

    It would make us look like jerks for being caught so easily after this huge deal out of it

    It would spur hundreds to thousands (guessing at numbers, not actually factual, could go either way) could spur many semi-fanatical muslims to full on fanatasism against the US

    It would make himself look like a genius/tough guy/fast thinker for escaping

    or he could play the "back from the dead card" to make himself into some new religous figure (which is possible since no one would be able to use his body to at least prove whoever we killed wasn't him after all)

    It would turn most, if not ALL, of our allies against us because they'd think we lied to them

    It would start riots in the US as well as anti-US riots all over the globe when everyone finds out how messed up the government is that they tried to get away with it.

    That's just off the top of my head. If he's still alive he has the US by the throat, all he has to do is make a video. Hell, he could walk into the middle of a crowded city and announce the fact he's not dead, and no one would be able to touch him because the citizens may defend him (assuming this is a primarily muslim city in the middle east).

    Lol if he released a video they would go head over heels to censor that anyway, sure some people would hear about it, then say it to the masses and the masses won't believe it.

    But I believe he's dead, just don't believe this is the "end of terrorism" and **** like that.

    You honestly think that if he were still alive, he wouldn't take advantage of that? You probably believe the moon landing was faked and countless other conspiracies.

    I don't think they could censor it. That's the thing with the US, we protect our free speech so much it's impossible for the government to shut it down. If he sent a copy to enough news agencies there would be no censoring it, this is the story of a life time, this is a story that could cripple the US for years to come.

    As if the government doesn't control central media icons. Not to say that we are censored, our media is probably the most 'free' of any, but still if they didn't want something out, they could easily do it. They would receive much more money not to publish it than actually publish it imo.

    Stop joking or back up your claim. I'm so tired of all these idiots and trolls that joke about his death.

    Everything is a conspiracy. 9/11? Conspiracy. Osama? Conspiracy. Stop being so stubborn.

    Edit: Just to be clear, italics indicates sarcasm. I can see how that can be misinterpreted.

    Thank you, rusty, thank you.

    Now really, Osama is dead, there's no other evidence I've seen to otherwise refute this. Should Obama get the credit? No. Will it have a large impact? No. It's a step in the right direction, though.

    Cos, man, It happened so conveniently.
    It took 10 years for us to find him, and when Obama's 2012 campaign was looking grim as hell we conveniently killed him.
    lol

    So it's easier to believe that Obama has staged a hoax for the whole world to give him a boost during the next election season rather than they actually killed him?

    I guess simple truths aren't enough for some people.

    Why would they bother going into Pakistan then? The US and Pakistan haven't been on good terms for a while now, if they were going to "fake" it, I'm almost positive that they would do it where they actually had "jurisdiction." (Like in Afghanistan)

    Sometimes people just don't recognize a good troll when they see one.

    his death is a joke though. If you heard about this and did anything besides groan at the idiot pageantry you were about to be subjected to then I don't know what to tell you.

    I wonder if they will release any pictures. I mean they already buried him in the ocean so they cant show us his body so maybe some pictures would clear some things up for some people.
