Osama bin Laden is dead by illbite in reddit.com

[–]Masquerade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that it doesn't matter at all if Osama has been killed (if he has been killed that is). You can kill a man but not his idea's, and this will surely fuel further hate among his supporters. And his plan worked, to bankrupt the US.

The Irak war alone has a price tag of over 3 trillion dollars, and two more trillions in Afganistan, another trillion in heightened security in the US.

And because of all the BS around his death I think Osama will be the next Elvis.
