The Pakistani P.M. tried to assure and calm the people by telling them that it was Bush that did this and that these bombings would stop when Obama is president.
I saw that on BBC news.

the way i figure it...they merely used coordinates for his nose...made an easy target, eh?

...he looks like he came straight out of a nazi propoganda film used to assist people in identifying Jews.

Number one on Obama''s'''' list of grievances was that we have permanent military bases on Muslim soil. But instead of listening to the man who actually masterminded the attacks you bought the line from Bush that "they hate our freedom", hook, line and sinker; just like a good guppy.

Well, we did pick up and leave operations in Saudi Arabia, which is what OBL was complaining about. You see, we were in Saudi Arabia running a big prison camp and no-fly zone over Iraq. Over a decade of containing Saddam, while he ruled in black markets and drove his country and people into the ground. We were not in Iraq when OBL''s terror organization hit us on 9/11. Looking at it now, how stupid, we set up "occupying" bases in all the countries around Iraq and disrupted their people rather that just cutting the "cancer" out and leaving. Today, we have done that and are accused of "occupying" Iraq.

Al Qaeda Big? What''s next, headlines with Al Qaeda Small? As in, "American Fighter Jets Bombed Dozens of Al Qaeda Smalls Last Night?" Maybe Al Qaeda Hobbits are in store for us, too? And I suppose they were killed while having Elevenses?

CBS, you don''t need to dumb your article headlines down that far. Stop doing yourself a disservice.

%u201CIf the militants leave the border region and go to bigger towns, the question will be, how far does the U.S. go after them?%u201D said the defense official. %u201CUltimately, more U.S. attacks in more prominent areas could jeopardize the U.S.-Pakistan relationship," he added.

-Pakistan states that it is hard to fight the Taliban and Al Qaeda in the tribal regions. The U.S. should not have to chase them into the cities as well, Pakistan''s intelligence should handle it from there. What will be their excuse when these "terror" groups move back in and they fail to address the issue? Will they fight them in the streets of Pakistan''s cities? Pakistan should feel no love lost in ridding themselves of these evil groups who terrorize the innocent.

May his ashes end up in a camel bowels.

Oh, by the way, baby Bush did a good job of scaring you enough that you''ll believe ANYTHING he says to justify ILLEGAL WAR.

Wooo, ooooo, "they" are coming to "get us"....wooo oooooo, let''s start ANOTHER ware on SOMEONE ELSE''S SOIL so they won''t "get us" wooooo oooo....you people voted for Bush TWICE cause he scared you!

How pathetic!!

[citizenusa-2009]

michael3032: Obviously, you''ve been so preoccupied with your leather chair and your java that you haven''t been paying ATTENTION.

Let me educate you son: After 911, Bin Laden''s quote was "I WILL DESTROY AMERICA FROM THE INSIDE OUT...FINANCIALLY!" Do you remember that? Well, because his good buddy Dubya did the work FOR HIM, Bin Laden DIDN''T have to LIFT A FINGER! Why attack? Look at the stock market pal! Bin Laden is saying (in Arabic of course) MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!! Iraq is simply icing on the cake.

ominibus66: I''m with you! I so tired of hearing this B.S! Every time a "terrorist" is killed, the news is supposed to "remind" us why our young men and women are being killed and maimed DAILY.

BRING OUR TROOPS HOME and let the "Al Quieda" and all those other "scary threats", fight amongst themselves!

Better yet, why not suit up Bush and Cheney and send them over to FINISH THE JOB THAT THEY STARTED! Smokem Out!!!

[omnibus66]

Let''s see, this makes the 23rd or 24th time that we have killed the number two or number three al Qaeda leader, producing ''significant damage'' to al Qaeda.

By now it seems that someone would have figured out that it takes about two minutes to replace these ''leaders''. This news isn''t a headline. It shouldn''t even be a footnote.

When ALL of the US troops pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan, now that''s a headline worth printing.

HETUP UrAs: It must be tough to lose one of your heroes.

[swingset4u]

Well ya know they have already replaced ugly with even uglier.

Peace and Love
The Bush years are over and nitwits have nothing else to talk about. Such a poor education. Such a miserable understanding. Poor fellows.
Find a new topic children and play nice.
Peace and Love

[neoconrcrazy]

i don''t give a hoot what Al-Qeada "operative" has been killed!

i want OBL''s azz dead for the world to see and my government has had eight years to do it and unlimited resources - AND THEY FAILED!

seems either bush&co. is too stupid to get the job done, or they''ve been using his continued existence to run their "global war on terror"...

either way the buck stops at the oval office.

[docpeter1953]

arrestbush1,
They should arrest your dumb a$$ for being stupid, you wimp liberals complain when Bush can''''t kill OBL, and then you complain when he does kill someone of importance. What are you going to say when Barry invades Pakistan, DH? Go wave your white flag at the Obama inauguration.

Unfortunately you are right demswin08. Trying to stop them now is like fighting a Medusa, only here the snakes just grow back. Unfortunately the GOPers can''t seem to get this idea in mind. Each snake head acts independently of as well as in union with the others. With the delay of hunting/finding OBL and starting a second war in Iraq, even if OBL is captured/killed, the USA has only made them stronger and more hate filled; and that is after we spent so much $$ helping them through education here and with $$ to fend off attacks from the USSR. Don''t forget the USA funded OBL during the Afg./USSR conflict. Now the USSR is getting even with us by funding them.

Bush once said he was tired of "swatting flies"... he spent his entire 8 years doing so.

[berchesgaden]

George W. Bush and Cheney are war criminals! They should be tried for treason!!!
