Guinness World Record Hide and Seek Comes to and End
 
Osama has managed to hold out or almost ten years but now he is apparently dead and his body has been captured. Not really much more to say yet but apparently Obama's going to disclose some more information soon.

enchilado 05-01-2011 08:17 PM

He will be missed. :'(

Also, I was writing a post about this, but dammit you beat me to it.

mr.odd 05-01-2011 08:18 PM

I had just seen a news report on this. So does this mean the war on terror is over?

moxco 05-01-2011 08:19 PM

Admittedly I always thought he died years ago. Maybe he did; I'm still waiting for Obama's speech.

moxco 05-01-2011 08:22 PM

@mr.odd Not while there's oil.

mr.odd 05-01-2011 08:26 PM

I hope they shot him with a bullet covered in pig grease.

Gwan-Thwei 05-01-2011 08:28 PM

Well, I'm glad that motherfucker's gone.
unless...it's just a guy that LOOKS like him...and the real Osama's out there somewhere still...

They said Obama and the CIA are looking into it to confirm that it is Osama.

Gwan-Thwei 05-01-2011 08:41 PM

Hah, The news came on, and I pointed it out to my parents.
Apparantly Obama's taking credit for the work that's been done, even though he was threatening to cut their funding a while back. It figures.

Dynamithix 05-01-2011 08:45 PM

About time!

Connell 05-01-2011 08:48 PM

MOD EDIT: So, some stupid mod... I mean, some other stupid mod, merged Connell's thread about OBL's death with Moxco's without warning anyone. That's why some of the next few posts won't make so much sense. Just so's you know.


So Osama Bin Laden has been murdered. I think my choice of wording there reflects my opinion slightly. I believe all killing is wrong, but then I believe he deserved to die. It's a bit of a taboo with me really.

Your thoughts?

Wait. Cut whose funding?

moxco 05-01-2011 08:49 PM

It conveniently dwarfs the news that the USA killed Gaddafi's innocent grandchildren.

Strike Witch 05-01-2011 08:50 PM

Sweet.

Dynamithix 05-01-2011 08:52 PM

There is already a topic for this.

I am both ashamed and embarrassed. goodbye topic.

enchilado 05-01-2011 08:59 PM

To be fair, the title of the other topic didn't make explicitly apparent that it was about Osama dying.

That's why I made this. When I saw the other I honestly thought a game of hide and seek had ended. Maybe that says something about me..

Mr. Bungle 05-01-2011 09:02 PM

Awesome.

True, but I was under the impression no blood had been shed

Hazel-Rah 05-01-2011 09:14 PM

I don't care about that anymore, America should learn to keep its nose out of other people's business and avoid making enemies like Bin Laden. Sure the bastard deserved it, but do the people outside of the White House think spilling this asshole's blood is going to solve anything? Besides the US has far bigger problems, what with half the fucking country unemployed and all.

In what way did he take credit? All he said was that he made the call to attack the compound that they found. I did not hear anything of him saying that he was the one who discovered it.

mr.odd 05-01-2011 09:20 PM

So what? Should we have just left Osama alone and let him plot more attacks against us?

Daxter King 05-01-2011 09:22 PM

America is the world's police and protector, if you dont like that, then get the fuck off of America's planet.

So many brilliant attacks he executed while dyeing in a cave.

moxco 05-01-2011 09:26 PM

Well a few trillion was worth it. I mean the USA obviously had nothing better to do with that sort of money than send a thousand-or-so soldiers to their deaths just to uphold their reputation as the worlds most interfering country.

Hazel-Rah 05-01-2011 09:30 PM

I just think the whole idea of declaring war on terrorism is pointless, you're never going to stamp it out by force, killing Bin Laden will not end this. Now his followers will be hell bent on revenge and more US troops will die. We shouldn't continue to throw people into the meat grinder we should just concentrate on expanding homeland security and leave the middle east to its own devices, they hate us!

In an ideal world we would fight terrorism by stamping out poverty, but whatever that's just wishful thinking, I'm only giving my opinion I don't claim to have all the answers.


You know what happened after Sev and Rico (true niggas) ran up on Vissari (gay nigga) in Killzone 2? Killzone 3. Dwell on dat.

mr.odd 05-01-2011 09:54 PM

True. Alkida(how ever the hell you spell that) is still out there. But the operation wasn't pointless especially since there was no casualties. killing there leader was a pretty big accomplishment in my opinion. Yes i'm aware that his successor is still out there. And yes, i'm aware that this is far from over.

And to your Kill Zone thing. Vissari still needed to be killed. Sure the Helghast won't fall over night, but im sure they will fall none the less. Considering the fact that is there last game.

enchilado 05-01-2011 09:56 PM

Al Qaeda...

mr.odd 05-01-2011 10:00 PM

Well thanks...

Pilot 05-01-2011 10:01 PM

Well they sure milked that for all it was worth.

Hazel-Rah 05-01-2011 10:03 PM

The government is trying to draw our attention away from our real problems, good job Barrack Hussein...

exactly *looks around* what? He's a Trey hater!

Majic 05-01-2011 11:01 PM

The symbolic importance: that perseverance against slim odds can triumph (not to be confused with "it was worth it," which I'd wager would be a mischaracterization of folks' celebratory reaction).

The practical importance: no more worrying about Trump (not to be confused with "no more worrying about terrorism," which I also wager would likewise be a mischaracterization).

T-nex 05-01-2011 11:38 PM

Well goodbye people... Nice knowing yea. The terrorists actually threatened to unleash atomic bomb hell on europe if Bin Laden die.
