Waiting for the media to ask the question...

If we knew in August his location. Took him out with a drone/firefight in Pakistan last week. Let's revisit that whole Iraq war thing again? Oh, wait...

On edit: Drone attack, followed by a firefight. Still... an entire war.

1. No, they didn't take him out with a drone or last week. Here's link

President Obama said that on Sunday, a small team of U.S. operatives launched a “targeted assault’’ on a compound in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad where months of intelligence work had established that Mr. Bin Laden was living. Mr. Bin Laden was killed after a firefight, and the troops took custody of his body.

8. This is a breaking story. The "one week ago" was stated by the media

I can tell you that I heard it on MSNBC.

It is proving to be wrong, but that doesn't mean it wasn't reported as such. It was.

9. ok, and President Obama gave a speech which I quoted there. Which was before the Op posted

Just trying to correct something that was incorrect.

2. I'm guessing "his location"

doesn't mean "145 Hidden Bunker Lane."

4. I thought the President said he gave the order today.

When did I get confused?

5. Not taken out by a drone. American raid on his compound

along with Pakistan assistance. No Americans hurt during the raid

6. And the operation happened today

Not last week, despite what Faux News is trying to make people think!

10. MSNBC and CNN both said the same thing

Neither is still saying it, but they did for a time.
