Osama bin Laden Gets His Virgins

According to Fox News Osama bin Laden was killed at 12:30 PDT today.  The U.S. has the body.  It took a week for DNA results to confirm.  More details coming.  Geraldo Rivera is clapping and laughing live on Fox right now. Reports are that bin Laden was killed while living in a mansion near Islamabad in Pakistan. Sounds like the Pakistanis have some explaining to do.

Thank you Presidents Bush and Obama and the military and intelligence assets that took him out.  Life got a lot tougher for 72 virgins last week.

Reports are people are gathering outside the White House chanting "USA, USA, USA" and singing the national anthem at the top of their lungs.  Boy, that's something I never thought I'd see again while Obama was president.

UPDATE:  Reports are now that this was a ground operation and bin Laden was shot to death.  Works for me.

UPDATE: Statement from former President George W. Bush:

Earlier this evening, President Obama called to inform me that American forces killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of the al Qaeda network that attacked America on September 11, 2001. I congratulated him and the men and women of our military and intelligence communities who devoted their lives to this mission. They have our everlasting gratitude. This momentous achievement marks a victory for America, for people who seek peace around the world, and for all those who lost loved ones on September 11, 2001. The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done.

UPDATE:

Osama bin Laden, hunted as the mastermind behind the worst-ever terrorist attack on U.S. soil, has been killed, sources told ABC News.

His death brings to an end a tumultuous life that saw bin Laden go from being the carefree son of a Saudi billionaire, to terrorist leader and the most wanted man in the world.

Bin Laden created and funded the al Qaeda terror network, which was responsible for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. The Saudi exile had been a man on the run since the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan overthrew the ruling Taliban regime, which harbored bin Laden.

In a video filmed two months after the Sept. 11 attacks, bin Laden gloated about the attack, saying it had exceeded even his "optimistic" calculations.

"Our terrorism is against America. Our terrorism is a blessed terrorism to prevent the unjust person from committing injustice and to stop American support for Israel, which kills our sons," he said in the video.

There's more at the link. I'm reading all kinds of creative ways to display the body on Twitter. Really an innovative bunch out there.
