The US know nothing about Islamic funerals, is all that proves.
Cool this down guys, or this thread will be locked
You're calling me ignorant - go back and read this thread, my posts and yours.
You know what they say about assuming? (Well, no - you probably don't now that I think about who I'm talking to...)
Where did I defend Osama, Jughead? I'd love to know.
What you quoted was not about defence, it was about ethics.
You really did choose your username wisely, it seems.

George Bush is responsible for the death of 1,000,000 people.
Don't say I'm throwing statistics I have no proof of. It is 1,000,000.

To Jughead and Sayf Udeen: Any more personal attacks will result in your posts being removed and a temp ban. Having an opinion does NOT make your opinion right. Attack the topic and not each other. If you cannot stop attacking each other then stay out of this thread.
I heard he was living 1000 yards from a military place.
If this is true, something seems a little fishy. Also, they said that the Pakistan government didn't know anything about it, so perhaps the US doesn't trust Pakistan to keep the secret. Just seems odd.
If anyone has anymore details, please share them with us.

ABBOTTABAD, Pakistan -Pakistan's president denied suggestions his country's security forces may have sheltered Osama bin Laden before he was killed by American forces, and said their cooperation with the United States helped pinpoint the world's most wanted man.
Asif Ali Zardari said, however, that Monday's operation against bin Laden was not conducted with Pakistani forces ââ¬â confirming accounts by U.S. officials that Islamabad was not involved in the raid and did not even know about it until it was over.
His comments in a Washington Post opinion piece Monday were Pakistan's first formal response to the suspicions by U.S. lawmakers and other critics, which could further sour relations between Islamabad and Washington at a crucial point in the war in Afghanistan.
Bin Laden was killed in a large house close to a military academy in the bustling northwestern town of Abbottabad, not in the remote Afghan border region where many had assumed he had been holed up. That was quickly taken as a sign of possible collusion with the country's powerful security establishment, which Western officials have long regarded with a measure of suspicion despite several notable al-Qaida arrests in the country since 2001.
Some in the U.S. press have suggested that Pakistan lacked vitality in its pursuit of terrorism, or worse yet that we were disingenuous and actually protected the terrorists we claimed to be pursuing. Such baseless speculation may make exciting cable news, but it doesn't reflect fact, Zardari wrote.
