Interesting. The Pak's were probably scrambling jets (U.S. jets, yet, huh?) to protect Osama from the helicopters coming in. His compound was like right next to the Pak military academy. "Oh, THAT compound. We didn't know." And I'm trying to remember... Don't the Pak's have their nuclear weapons storage facility near there somewhere? I guess they could have scrambled the jets thinking someone (U.S.) was finally going to de-nuke them.

Anyway, I think he was killed or died years ago. That whole thing of look at the nose size in the pictures before and after was pretty convincing to me.

Where's his foot? Let's see pics of the foot (stump) of whoever they shot.

They haven't released any pictures yet. Any pictures you may have "seen" are fakes. Save the conspiracy theories for a later date...

I think it would have been a bigger coincidence if they could have come up with a date that Dubya DIDN'T make a speech about the mission being accomplished, or on target, or something.

It happened 15 years to the day after Ayrton Senna was killed. Hmmmmmmmm.

I'm just happy to see all of my local gas stations have decided to celebrate by raising gas prices another 20 cents. Awesome guys, just awesome.

BTW - don't even start with the "fear premium" crap, that's been built into prices for months now. Minor rant over, back on topic.

What is being completely ignored by the mainstream media is that May 1st is also the birthday of Legendary Hollywood tough guy Glenn Ford, Paul Sr. from that motorcycle show, "Ghostbusters" themester Ray Parker, Jr, and Tim McGraw, who will no doubt release a hit commemorating this event.

Coincidence? I wonder.

No, no...The point we're all missing is that Americans will drop from the sky in the middle of the night and shoot you in the face in your own home, even if you're hiding behind a woman.

I didn't use the term "coincidence" mistakenly, and I can't tell if people are just making light of my post (as there was a 1/365 chance that it'd happen on that particular date in a regular year) or really do think I'm trolling or trying to push some sort of conspiracy theory.

It is a coincidence. If they found out on Friday, I'm sure they would have tried to go in Friday. Or in 2010. Or in 2009. You get the idea. As it was, I read they were going to storm the compound as soon as they made confirmation on Saturday, but the mission was delayed.

I like trivia like this. /shrug

Nobody here would dare bring that up...

Good job. I was hoping someone would fix it for me. FYI: That was 8 yrs ago today from what I hear. Yet to confirm.

ZOMG, jg, You're Right!! And, Paul Sr. uses S&S motors in those builds. S&S bought Crane Cams. Crane Cams is in Daytona Beach, RIGHT NEXT TO GRM!!! It's a conspiracy!!!

Quoted because it needed to be said again.

It is the 96th anniversary of the torpedoing of the Lusitania off the coast of Ireland. Obviously there is a tie somehow.

Hitler was also found dead in his bunker May 1st, although instead of dumped in the ocean his brain is being kept alive in a jar in an undisclosed location.

According to my local newspaper, there were ten people in my area who also died on May 1.

They must have been working for him. Al Queda worked it like the Pharaohs - when the Pharaoh dies... all the servants go with.
