The second death of Osama bin Laden (but told really well)!,
This review is from: No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission That Killed Osama Bin Laden (Hardcover)
"[Mark Owen] has given us a brave retelling of one of the most important events in U.S. military history." -People Magazine Except that Osama bin Laden died on or about 15 December 2001 and was buried in an unmarked grave in Afghanistan in accordance with Muslim traditions. There were local obituaries at the time and even FOX NEWS ran a report about it. So how can Osama have DIED TWICE? David Ray Griffin has a book about it, OSAMA BIN LADEN: DEAD OR ALIVE? and Nicholas Kollerstrom has an article about it, "Osama bin Laden: 1957-2001". I also discuss it in "9/11: Have we been bamboozled?"
Experts have explained that audio and video tapes purportedly from bin Laden since 2001 have been fake. And, if you read his story with great care, you will find that the man who was shot did not look like bin Laden to them. Residents in the area said they had never seen him in the area and that the man shown in photographs watching television was the owner of the compound, who was not bin Laden. They claimed to have DNA identification faster than would have been scientifically possible. Burial at sea is NOT a Muslim tradition. It is disrespectful of the body, which can be consumed by fish, sharks and crustaceans.
Obama was under great political pressure at the time regarding his birth certificate, that Guantanamo was still open, and that he had troops based in Pakistan. At a single stroke--by claiming that the "tip" had come from Guantanamo and using troops that were in Pakistan--he wiped the birth certificate issue off the front page and became a national hero! Most Americans were taken in by the staged photo of Obama, Biden and Hillary intently watching a big screen TV of the operation as it took place--until CIA Director Leon Panetta acknowledged that there had been no coverage for the first 20-25 minutes.
As a former Marine Corps officer, I can attest that raids like this only take about 5 minutes, tops--which means that they were watching a blank screen! Most Americans do not realize that, when he was first asked about 9/11, Osama explained that he had had nothing to do with it, that the murder of innocent women and children was contrary to the tenets of the Koran, and that there was a "government within the government" that had arranged these atrocities and wanted to blame Muslims for the crime. Someone else said there is a government within the government and that he did not control it: Bill Clinton!
For those who want to understand what's going on here and the fabrication of the events of 9/11, try "20 reasons the official account of 9/11 is wrong" on the science of 9/11 and "Peeling the 9/11 Onion: Layers of Plots within Plots" on the politics. Or try "Seven Questions about 9/11", "9/11 Truth will out: The Vancouver Hearings". Or try "9/11: Confessions of a former CIA Asset" by Susan Lindauer, who was the link between Saddam Hussein and the CIA. Saddam did not want war with the US and offered to buy 1,000,000 cars a year for the next 10 years--and if that was not enough, make it 20! Read this and weep.
