Topic: They will be missed...
I tought that this topic would be for news of actors and other celebs passing away... Elizabeth Taylor, one of Hollywood's greatest stars, has died at age 79. Taylor died Wednesday in hospital in Los Angeles, where she had been treated for congestive heart failure, her publicist Sally Morrison said.

Re: They will be missed...
Bit suspect, considering a video of Saddam's execution was leaked, they haven't released any photos of a body, and now they've "buried" him at sea... (I'm not normally one to go for conspiracy theories either).
Though he would have popped up with one of his messages by now...

Re: They will be missed...
Ah, I must admit I didn't google as I thought it would have been mentioned in various news stories I have read. I'll eat breakfast then maybe have a look...

Well, apparently the pic I posted is a fake. I'm not good at Photoshop so I won't argue.

And we will probably never see a pic of him, also that pic was posted on a website in 2010 alrdy , many claim he's been dead since 07.

Re: They will be missed...
I heard an official news report a while ago that said he'd been shot in the head twice, so that picture can't be right.
Knowing those American's one of the soldiers would have definitely taken a picture as a trophy...

Re: They will be missed...
With Eichmann and other Nazis it is a different story, because they WANTED to show the face of Nazi Germany, to go through the legal jabber, to show the mighty justice of the legal system etc. But then the media was different, technology was different. Then they needed to give a face, a symbol, to the Nazis and tell what they did via trial.
With Osama, they didn't want to go through the legal system, everyone knows who he is and what he did, also probably because they didn't want incriminating information to go public (and I think that he knew a lot bad things about the American goverment), also now there could be rescue attempts, or taking hostages/threating to blow something 'and now you release him'. Osama was, and is, a symbol of terrorism, killing him is enough for public to go wild and get a feeling 'we accomplished something'. It was just safer for them to kill him I think. (No, I'm not a conspirator).
And yes, especially for the americans, his death was a feeling of closure. But that doesn't mean that the war is over, not even a bit.

Re: They will be missed...
It is not sure if the bullet that killed him was from the gun of Seal Team 6 or from his bodyguard/son...

Re: They will be missed...
While I also think that his death is the best ooutcome I condemn the killing of people.
In this special case many more would've been killed during a law process or while trying to free him or press to free him.
I would even more like it when it wasn't a big media event - just a side note on page three of a newspaper:
"BTW - OBL is dead - killed during whatever"

I agree with this, fair enough, have a headline for a day, then enough with it. BBC News have had a whole top of their page dedicated to it since, and it detracts from other events even though they are more recent...
When they had the wedding stories up it was the same, but only from late Thursday night to Saturday morning and I think that was justified for that period. With regards to killing him, he was never going to let himself get captured and paraded around. While I'm against killing him if he was unarmed (going against the rules of engagement), it is better this way, it ends the whole affair. Otherwise you'd have the whole problem of when, where and how to try him. I mean, who is going to be a unbiased jury/judge for that! Let alone trying to find one...
Once you'd done that you'd have some pointless trial somewhere (with even more media coverage), and a likely event for a terrorist plot.
He'd end up going the same way as Saddam, abet after months (possibly years) of mumbo-jumbo and media hysteria, like I said least it is over. (The end of the affair, and it being over all being related to him and his attempted capture. Al-Qaeda aren't going to stop and nor will global terrorism, ever...) EDIT:

Sorry BB, I seemed to have skipped that sentence when reading your post! 
Says much the same as I said said

According to police, the accident occurred at 3 a.m. on Route 322 and New Street in West Goshen Township. While it's unknown who was driving at the time, an unidentified passenger also died in the crash.
