        I guess the news sources mixed it up. The one I heard it from first said Afghanistan, but later stories said Pakistan. Either way, good riddance.

                Have fun with your 72 virgins Bin Laden.
                You got there! Now you get to pleasure all of them for all eternity...
                on your knees...

                There are only two types of bikers...
                those that have layed it down, and
                those that have not layed it down...YET!

                          we had to get him for his heinious acts against innocent men,women and children...he was a criminal and justice has been served. Will this be the end of al-quaida or terrorism? I think not. And what about a country we've given $10 Billion only to learn they were harboring him an hour from the capital of pakistan.

                            Think in terms of money, as that is what truly makes the terrorism world go round. If we took the money he had at the same time, then we truly struck a heck of a blow to the terrorism network.

                            If not, then it is all smoke and mirrors, other than to show that the USA and our allies in this DO have the fortitude to stick to our plan and stick to the task for ten years or as long as needed to complete the task.
