Bin Laden should have stood trial, Mr Robertson added. "The last thing he wanted was to be put on trial, to be convicted and to end his life in a prison farm in upstate New York. What he wanted was exactly what he got - to be shot in mid-jihad and get a fast track to paradise and the Americans have given him that."
I'd really like to see the video of US forces executing some random reporter just because he's Iraqi, if you're going to assert that there's no real difference between soldiers and terrorists.

Or would that not be allowed because of American double standards?
The stories being reported have changed. Confusion for the newsies is entirely natural at this point.

Well the administration told us certain things, e.g. the human shield, Osama was armed etc and Obama and his staff were watching the raid unfold live and they released a picture showing them watching it.
Well they must have been watching the wrong channel because now the story has changed. Seems what they saw wasn't quite what happened was it?
I like to debate, and I'm avoiding homework.

Oh, but it is important. Your motives for meticulously responding to every poster who questions the U.S. government's story, is extremely interesting to me. Saying what country you're in, wouldn't give up much about you, but if your IP address were to change frequently, it would be obvious, so of course you're not gonna say. I think it's pretty interesting for ATS members to see a real live Operation Ernest Voice account in action here. And we must be important, being the # 1 conspiracy site on the web...otherwise why would you be wasting your time going back and forth, ALL DAY here? What's your objective?
Links plz.

No...I'm quite sure I watched a press conference with that Brennan guy saying a load of stuff.....and now they've backtracked and changed their story.
The US government sometimes can't find people living inside their borders, much less a rich terrorist leader with the entire Middle East to move around in.
Surely the American administration isn't that incompetent is it?
Well then again it did take 10 years and the destruction of two countries and deaths of thousands to find one single man.
CIA? Pfffft, who are they?

You mean that I openly admitted to using a freeware program that distorts my IP, for legitimate reasons? Really, ask the mods to check. They'll verify my claims that I've been posting from the same region, barring short periods where I'll seem to have teleported across the world. I've only connected to this site from two locations, and only used HS at one, on the home computer I'm using for this post. That's the one which I'll seem to be teleporting from. I don't know if it's a Dynamic or Static IP, though.

Well, thank you for your response, young wizard. I must say it raises alot more questions than it answers, but I'll let everybody draw their own conclusions from it, and will refrain from derailing the thread any further.
Link please.
On topic, CNN was just reporting that many government officials that originally said they saw the photos, are now saying that they saw the hoax photo that's circulating, or didn't actually see any photos at all. This just gets fishier by the moment, eh everybody? You honestly couldn't make all this up.

Three Republican senators who claimed to have seen images of Osama bin Laden after he was killed may have been duped. www.cbsnews.com...
It is so comforting to know that our elected officials are on the ball.

US Senator Scott Brown is retracting statements he made earlier today, when he told several news outlets that he had seen photos of Osama bin Laden’s dead body as part of an official briefing.
Brown made that assertion in an interview with NECN today to bolster his argument that the photos should not be released to the public.
“Let me assure you that he is dead, that bin Laden is dead,” Brown said. “I have seen the photos and, in fact, we’ve received the briefing and we’ll continue to get the briefings.”
*snip*
NECN posted a statement on its website, saying, “Senator Brown's office tells NECN this afternoon that the bin Laden photos the Senator mentions seeing about 2 minutes into the clip here were not authentic."
Fox 25 posted an update on its website, saying Brown had told the station that, “the photo that I saw and that a lot of other people saw is not authentic.”
