Osama Bin Laden was killed years ago [Benazir Bhutto]

'Bin Laden was killed years ago'

A 2007 Benazir Bhutto interview in which she says the al-Qaeda leader was 'murdered' years ago contributes to the uncertainty surrounding US claims about Osama bin Laden's death.


On Monday, US President Barack Obama announced that the al-Qaeda leader was killed by US forces after he was found hiding in a compound in Pakistan.

This is while in an interview following a failed assassination attempt on Pakistan's former premier in October 2007, Bhutto says bin Laden has already been killed.

In the interview, she identifies the man who killed the notorious al-Qaeda leader as one Omar Sheikh , excerpts of which was sent to Press TV's UReport.

In response to a question whether any of the assassins had links with the government, Bhutto said, "Yes but one of them is a very key figure in security, he is a former military officer ... and had dealings with Omar Sheikh, the man who murdered Osama bin Laden."

Bhutto was assassinated on December 27, 2007 in a bomb attack as she was leaving an election rally in Rawalpindi when a gunman shot her in the neck and set off a bomb.

The announcement of bin Laden's death comes almost ten years after the September 11 attacks on the United States.

Meanwhile, a US official says bin Laden's body has been buried at sea, alleging that his hasty burial was in accordance with Islamic law, which requires burial within 24 hours of death.

This is while burial at sea is not an Islamic practice and Islam does not determine a timeframe for burial.

The official added that finding a country willing to accept the remains of the world's most wanted man was difficult, so the US decided to bury him at sea.

When 3 White People die More People care and when a whole continent is suffering from hunger almost no one cares ..EVRYONE IS WORTH THE SAME ..But They dont Care

[DukeStarbuckle]

All of us saw the video of some of the SEAL activities during what was supposed to be the killing of Osama Bin Laden. But none of us knows where that was filmed or who actually filmed it. Don't make the mistake of believing everything that shows up on that box in your livingroom.

Just think about it for a minute. None of us knows anything about that operation. No body available for DNA. If I were going to kill the most famous terrorist in the world I would at least keep his head for proof.

The DNA would have been easy enough. Same with a photograph. The idea that this wasn't kept or shown for the sake of our enemies' sensibilities is laughable.

We care about their feelings now? Absurd. I can't prove if Osama is dead one way or the other but the actions of the US gov't are suspect.

It's a war on terrorism for goodness sake! This type of cowering behind the politically correct notion that we mustn't offend them is terrorism writ large.

what politics is this whyyyy?????

[DaReeceMan1]

Maybe Bin Laden did die years ago, all major governments are masters of manipilation of the public, only telling us what they want us to know. But i cant be sure of that

Like Patrice O'neal (R.I.P.) Once said, if you look up any other terrorist, Babyface Nelson, Bonnie and Clyde for example. You will find their death photo with the guy who pulled the trigger in it. But for some reason there is no evidence of Bin Laden's death. All we have is a photo shopped picture of Bin Laden.
