Bin Laden
So they've finally nailed him, or so it seems, living in luxury unlike Sadam.

Been living in Pakistan apparently.
Latest reports suggest he's already been burried,...at sea.
Lets hope they've got the right man with sufficient evidence to back it up.

Re: Bin Laden
Although great news (I'm a little surprised they got rid of the body so quickly, when they must have known the doubt that would be generated by it), it's slightly worrying of course of what might be to come now .... I just hope the organisation is as badly organised now as they are saying it is

The reason for the swift burial is said to be to avoid offending other ppl. of his religion whose normal practice is quck burials.

Re: Bin Laden
Yes, we wouldnt want to offend the family of someone who is responsible for so many deaths. I think also it seems they chose the Sea burial to avoid a shrine being created

Re: Bin Laden
I fear we may see an outbreak of random suicide attacks carried out by sympathisers over the next few days/weeks. It's really not one organisation but a whole set of similarly minded groups in different countries who operate autonomously. I just hope the security forces in London (and other big cities) are alert as to what may happen now.

Re: Bin Laden
Apparantly Obama had him buried at sea because so many Republicans had sworn to dance on his grave.

Re: Bin Laden
Hague's already announced increased security measures, so you should find that flying is probably the safest way of travelling (although you'll have extra delays at the airport no doubt). It's public transport in the big cities that are most at risk Realistically there is no way you can check every passenger for guns or explosives
