Jordan Clarke has said on his twitter page that he doesn't believe the news - lol.

I think this is a good thing long-term. People might be pissed off at first and after revenge, but in the long run it's an influential leader gone. Apparently this al-Zawahiri guy, the next bloke in line, isn't as widely liked or inspiring. We all saw what happened when Rafa Benitez took over from Jose Mourinho at Inter Milan.

such is war, so then we hit them harder, and so on, ad infinitum. Cheered me up no end. He'll be gutted when there isn't a gang of virgins waiting for him and just some bloke sticking a poker up his jacksie:)

He would have made a good manager. Kept discipline in the dressing room

About time! Can't believe how long it has taken also would have preferred it if he was brought to justice so he could be tortured for information.

It's a nice moment for those directly affected by 9/11 and so on, but it changes little really. It's not as if Al-Qaeda and the many affiliates will disband now.

I'm not sure we're particularly at any more or less risk of attack to be honest, such threats have always existed and probably always will.

I heard in the news (and I could be wrong) that the Pakistan government weren't informed about the attack. I get the feeling if they informed then someone of tipped it off to Osama Bin Laden, which may explain why it has taken this long to either catch or kill him.

Also the guy would rather die than be caught alive to face trial.

Yes, Obama has told American citzens (home and abroad) to be more vigilant if they are going on their travels.

He's been dead for years....

I can't honestly say I believe everything we are told re: 9/11 and the resulting 'wars on terror'.
I guess we must just hope it's all in our interest by those we trust? Hmm

Can you honestly say you are being told the truth without any reasonable doubt?
Would not this vile most wanted man of all time require evidential proof that they got him?
There can be no offence in seeing this dirt bag in a dead photo pose surely?
They dumped him in the ocean and tell us he was at this compound when we had our best looking for him for 10 years?
I'm sorry something here is not right. He needed so much medical treatment if he was still alive how the hell can no one know he was there?
I still believe he was dead years ago. If you have a theory then lets hear it.........

When Osama died, the US president would get a boost. If he were dead years ago, that would mean a Republican cabinet has stepped aside and allowed a Democrat president to now get the kudos. That would be the most unlikely scenario of all for me.
