DTN News - OSAMA BIN LADEN NEWS: Obama Will Not Hesitate To Repeat Osama Raid, If Required....NSI News Source Info # 1979 (Image # 2)

(NSI News Source Info) LONDON, U.K. - May 22, 2011: US President Barack Obama says he would order another covert military raid like that which killed Osama bin Laden if it was necessary to stop terrorist attacks.

Pakistan is furious that that United States sent Navy Seals to raid Osama's Pakistan hideaway earlier this month without informing Pakistani authorities.

Mr Obama told the BBC in an interview broadcast on Sunday that 'we are very respectful of the sovereignty of Pakistan,' but 'our job is to secure the United States.'

He said he could not allow 'active plans to come to fruition without us taking some action,' and would send troops again if a senior Taleban leader was found in Pakistan.

Mr Obama begins a six-day trip to Europe on Monday, visiting Ireland, Britain, France and Poland.

DTN News - OSAMA BIN LADEN & PAKISTAN NEWS: Pakistan PM Rejects Accusations Over Bin Laden As Absurd....NSI News Source Info # 1923

(NSI News Source Info) ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - May 9, 2011: Pakistan Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani on Monday rejected allegations that the killing of Osama bin Laden by U.S. troops in the country showed Pakistani incompetence or complicity in hiding the al Qaeda leader.

Opposition politicians have stepped up their criticism of Pakistan's leaders over the killing of bin Laden in a raid by U.S. special forces in a northern Pakistani town on May 2.

Pakistan welcomed the death of bin Laden, who plotted the Sept. 11, 2001, airliner attacks on the United States, as a step in the fight against militancy but also complained that the raid was a violation of its sovereignty.

The fact that bin Laden was found hiding in the garrison town of Abbottabad, 50 km (30 miles) from the capital, has led to accusations that Pakistani security agencies were either incompetent or sheltering the world's most wanted man.

"Allegations of complicity or incompetence are absurd," Gilani said in a televised address to parliament, adding that it was disingenuous for anyone to accuse Pakistan, including its spy agency, of "being in cahoots" with the al Qaeda network.

The U.S. raid has added to strains in ties between Islamabad and Washington, which are crucial to combating Islamist militants and to bringing stability to Afghanistan.

**Pakistan admits Bin Laden intelligence failure - BBC News
(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - May 3, 2011:

He said of course there are lots of questions about the support systems bin Laden had in Pakistan.

The Prime Minister, who last year said that the country faced both ways on terrorism, said “everyone including the government” in Pakistan would need to explain how the world’s most wanted man came to be living with his family in a compound near an army base.

DTN News - OSAMA BIN LADEN NEWS: Bin Laden Buried At Sea, Official Says....NSI News Source Info # 1900

(NSI News Source Info)

WASHINGTON, - May 2, 2011: Osama bin Laden received a Muslim ceremony as he was buried at sea, a senior defense official said here today.

The religious rites were performed aboard the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson in the North Arabian Sea, the official said, speaking on background, and occurred within 24 hours of the terrorist leader's death.

"Preparations for at-sea [burial] began at 1:10 a.m. Eastern Standard Time and were completed at 2 a.m.," the official said.

The burial followed traditional Muslim burial customs, the official said, and bin Laden's body was washed and placed in a white sheet.

"The body was placed in a weighted bag. A military officer read prepared religious remarks, which were translated into Arabic by a native speaker," the official added.

Afterward, Bin Laden's body was placed onto a flat board, which was then elevated upward on one side and the body slid off into the sea.

DTN News - OSAMA BIN LADEN NEWS: Red Alert ~ Osama Bin Laden Killed....NSI News Source Info # 1898

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - May 2, 2011:

The United States has killed al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden and recovered his body, according to numerous media reports May 1 citing U.S. officials. U.S. President Barack Obama is scheduled to make an announcement on the subject. It is not clear precisely how bin Laden was killed or how his body was recovered, but the assertion that he is dead is significant.

Bin Laden had become the symbol of al Qaeda, even though the degree to which he commanded the organization was questionable. The symbolic value of his death is obvious. The United States can claim a great victory. Al Qaeda can proclaim his martyrdom.

It is difficult to understand what this means at this moment, but it permits the Obama administration to claim victory, at least partially, over al Qaeda. It also opens the door for the beginning of a withdrawal from Afghanistan, regardless of the practical impact of bin Laden’s death. The mission in Afghanistan was to defeat al Qaeda, and with his death, a plausible claim can be made that the mission is complete. Again speculatively, it will be interesting to see how this affects U.S. strategy there.
