2. How is this "in denial"? Not sure how it is "truly hilarious".

US president Barack Obama is due to make a statement shortly in which he is expected to announce the death of Osama bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaeda.

Obama's address was due at 0300GMT from the White House.

Qais Azimy, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Kabul, said that Afghan officials have confirmed that Bin Laden had died and that his body was with the United States.

Officials would not confirm whether he had been killed in Afghanistan or Pakistan, and said that the death of the al-Qaeda leader was more of a "symbolic victory", as he was no longer directly connected to the group's field operations, Azimy reported.

10. Hilarious? I'm watching Robert Fisk one of the world's most renowned Middle East experts
Edited on Sun May-01-11 10:21 PM by Puregonzo1188
talking about his having met bin Laden and how bin Laden failed to accomplish any of his goals and was out of touch with the MIddle East.


I can't even recognize DU right now.

17. Where do you get the idea that bin Laden was their hero?
I haven't watched it, but are you sure you aren't making that up?
