Think this is great news for Obama btw - he can shove this down the throat of Republicans who have portrayed him as weak on terrorism (and much worse than just that TBH).

Anytime a man is found dead in a mansion you have to suspect Michael Barrymore was involved.

I heard that it was George W Bush on a suicide bombing mission. Rumour has it that GW's last words were "We Got the other Basta...."

Yeah thats what I was thinking. Then imagined potential extremists watching it and hating America more. Kind of like how we would react if they killed an American and started dancing on the street in celebration....Terrible circle.
 
Some sort of 9/11 memorial service or something more sombre would have been more appropriate rather than the typical macho patriotic american thing they went and did.

Said this exact thing. I'm not unhappy that he is dead, but see the carrying on (Crowds in the baseball ESPN today broke into spontaneous "USA, USA..." chants as the news filtered out) in exactly the same way as I see the footage of fanatics in the streets firing off their AK's celebrating.

Now that SuperObama has saved the day, does that mean that all these wars of unjust aggression will end? Nope!

I thought it understandable.
Some extremists did exactly that after 9/11.
