The Fate of Osama Bin Laden.

[AndJusticeForAll]

Lots of talk in the air about Bin ING Laden these days, and why the hell not? He's public enemy #1, even more so now with #2 now in US custody. This is the scumbag who orchestrated the 9/11 attacks on America, killing thousands, and for that, there can be no forgetting and no forgiving. I think he will be captured someday, hopefully sooner than later, especially if we believe that no rat, however resourcefull, can run forever when the United States military is looking for you with bad intentions and payback on their minds.

Anyhow, I've read some words of a willingness by some to pay actual money to watch him executed when we do get him and put him to death. Of course, this presupposes a few possible things such as him being killed in combat or by suicide. He looks like the kind of scumbag, who unlike Hussein, would actually resist and possibly even fight back, resulting in his own combat death. Or maybe he kills himself like Hitler did. Or maybe he's dead right now. But let's say he is captured alive by the US and not the British... tried by a US military tribunal for war crimes-terrorism and is then condenmed to die.

How should he die? Serious answers only. ...by that I mean that we are unfortunately limited to a few possible real choices. Being dropped 110 stories to his well deserved and overdue death is not a possibility but it sounds right I know.

How will he die? Lethal? Hanging? Firing squad?

Should we be able to watch? As it stands now, the American people RARELY get the opportunity to witness and actual execution. Do you want to see it? I do. Sure.

Would somebody actually pay to see? Dare I ask how much? $49.99 like a pay-per-view? Could you use your blackboxes? Will HBO have it in a week or a month?

Something to remember though...

The goverenment isn't executing Bin Laden. We are. His execution would be the will of the American people collectively and if you'd "pay" to watch it, you're missing the point entirely. It's your right to see it, even if they won't let you, and the execution, like all executions in the US, would be carried out in your name using your tax dollars. Paying the government or anyone (Vince McMahon Don King) to see what you already own and are ultimately responsible for would be silly, right?

Nobody should have to pay.

Stil...

I want him captured. I want him killed. Never Forget 9/11.

Thoughts and opinion on any or all of this appreciated.

...no, the most humiliating thing for a "warrior in jihad" is to be captured, kept alive and sentenced to life without parole. This will confound Muslims around about why Allah did not grant OBL martyrdom to have his 72 virgins.

Since he knew about Husseins capture,he probably thinks he was a coward.I believe if he was in that situation,he would either try to fight,or just put a bullet in his head.I do want him alive,and have a public trial.NOW THATS REALITY TV!
As far as execution,I dont care how he dies,as long as he does...

To be continued..................................

[Ascout]

I don't expect for him to be taken alive. Whatever....

[The_Federalist]

Didn't much expect Saddam to be taken in alive either!

[RetPara]

There is a lot less chance of him being taken alive than Uncle Saddam. He would probably fight to the death or suicide.

That being said... Hang him, in Central Park, free admission, televised, with a slip not... Let him dance...

...but that´s the worst thing that could happen. Knowing what I know about the Muslim mentality, especially the radicals and the so-called "moderate" Muslims who are strangely silent when it comes to terrorism (moderate Muslims are bloody cowards and are afraid of the Wahabbis, the mujahideen, and the Shi'ites.... in truth, moderate Muslims do not exist) if OBL gets killed in battle or commits suicide, he will be a martyr for Islam under their eschatology and it will encourage more Muslims to get radical.

If he's put in a nasty prison, let's say, Marion, Illinois, where he becomes somebody's "property" that is by far, the worst thing that could happen in Muslim mentality. Muslims around the world will be confounded by the fact that bin Laden was not granted the blessing of martyrdom by Allah and these same Muslims will wonder if he was a true Muslim.

People, know thine enemies. Western mentalities and customs are very alien to Islam.
