Well Jaimie wanted something else on the news, this will run for a long time no doubt.  It appears he was killed by US forces working in Pakistan and his body has been recovered.  It has only taken 9 years.......

I wonder if this was the reason the Royal honeymoon was postponed?  If they were going to a Muslim country when this was kicking off you could imagine how nervous the Royal Protection Squad would have been.

Stay alert peeps, I get the feeling we have just kicked the wasps nest :-/

I certainly agree with you G.

Only question is why did it take so long? Were any officials or military in Pakistan in any way shielding his location? Obviously so otherwise this would probably have happened sooner.
Good riddance though to that terrorist coward! Hope all his followers receive their just rewards and meet the same end.
If anyone is seeking sympathy; It can be found in the Oxford English dictionary between Sh*t and Syphilis.

The yanks have killed him, took them long enough, but alls well that ends well I suppose.
Hopefully it will have the effect of cutting the head off a snake.

One would hope the 'Lernaean Hydra' that is terrorism; doesn`t sprout a new head (or two). :-/

[albitz]

We can hope. Time will tell I suppose. :-/

thats a forlorn hope Albs, it may have cut the head off a snake but theres hundreds of vipers in the nest, plus any new "leader" if Al Queda has a leader, is going to look at making a name for himself quickly

It will give some kind of closure to all the families of the 9/11 and 7/7 victims at least, but there'll be other people to take his place

Lived in a mansion in a built-up area apparently, not exactly 'hiding out in a cave in a remote, mountainous area' eh?

Unfortunately Banjax, you are probably right.

Being cynical for a moment - Obama might have just helped himself win the next election.

It will at least help families who lost loved ones during the 9/11 and 7/7 attacks come to terms with their losses, but as you say…who comes next? I think the Americans should now be extremely vigilant against retaliation attacks.  :exclamation

Such a shame they couldn't have taken him alive.
