Good news!

It appears he was killed in Kabul. Of all places.

It will be interesting to see who ratted him out.

It would be nice to get confirmation from someone other than an Obama/Biden appointee.

And since this asshole was operating in Kabul, one more guidon ribbon for Operation Good Job's list of accomplishment from last year's pull out of Afcrapistan.

Probably a competing faction in Afghanistan was happy to take the money.

An American ground team was present in Afghanistan to support the strike and has since pulled out, a senior intelligence official said.

I'm genuinely surprised that our "woke" armed forces can do anything at all anymore. I couldn't be more serious. Genuinely surprised.

And I don't want to hear President Huggies taking credit for this with his mumbling bullshit but that's exactly what he's going to do, over and over.

Sorry it took this long but there should be no statute of limitations to enact justice.

Agree with you 100% Para.

Good. Dead Terrorists SHOULD be a bipartisan issue we can all support.

I wanna see a pix of what's left of him.

I take pleasure in every day and night he wondered if it was going to be the next moment that his miserable life was going to end. What a terrible way to spend more than 20 years. Wondering who
in his family or inner circle was going to give him up. Well now he know's those answers.

I am happy for all those who have been dedicated to making sure this day happened. You deserve a great deal of gratitude from all those who have supported you.

The left hates this nation. They don't want to kill terrorists, they want to give them cash and a back rub. The only thing the left cares about this is its value as political currency, and that is all, nothing more.

When I see the body and a positive DNA test, I'll believe this actually occurred and offer congrats. Until then, color me skeptical at best. Biden desperately needs some sort of win given everything collapsing around him, and low and behold, he managed to kill one of the world's biggest terrorists, at this specific moment in time. Uh huh.

Tonight I had the TV on while cooking and President hair sniffer of young girls came on to announce this. I found it funny he started off by saying he ordered the strike and then after that multiple times he talked about he just approved it. No way on earth that idiot ordered it to happened. Our military did everything and just asked for the okay and then I am sure he asked everyone and their grandmother what he should do before finally giving a “decision.”

Every decision Joe Biden makes is wrong. He has atrocious instincts. He was against the mission to kill Bin Laden, but oh, now he's Mister Swingin' Dick Badass. Sure, I believe it.

Yea I was thinking this was a ratings bump. If Biden had approval ratings in the 50's he wouldn't have bothered.
