FlaSoxxJim Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I assumed President Obama contacted GWB earlier in the day to give him the news, and that was just confirmed. GWB wrote a statement that was just read that was short, well-composed and very fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I really wonder how this affects Obama's chances in the 2012 election. Regardless, this is awesome news and a symbolic victory for America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaSoxxJim Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 So to clarify just so people reading this thread later don't get wrong info, The President's address confirmed that this happened earlier today — not a week or so ago as had been posted earlier. The intel that had started to pan out beginning back around August (according to Obama) had escalated to the point where the president was apparently involved with 5 briefings in the intel over the last 2 weeks, culminating in the decision that there was actionable intelligence and an order given on Friday to execute the operation.

Unfortunately for the operative that made the kill I am assuming the offer is null and void if you are employed by the US military or intelligence agencies.
