Yes it is somewhat old news but I have been waiting a while to do a post on this. Anyway if you know me well enough I like to check all six sides of the cube meaning. I like to check all reliable sources witch I am capable of reaching of course what the Catholic Church says about it and my comments too.
Usually I take what President Obama says with a grain of salt but this stuck out to me for some reason and yes I do pray for him and respect his position in office
Here is what he said...
Shortly after taking office, I directed Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda, even as we continued our broader efforts to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat his network.Then, last August, after years of painstaking work by our intelligence community, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden. It was far from certain, and it took many months to run this thread to ground. I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan. And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action, and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice.
I found this next part in the army times.....
U.S. Black hawk helicopters ferried about two dozen troops from Navy SEAL Team Six, a top military counter-terrorism unit, into the compound identified by the CIA as bin Laden’s hideout — and back out again in less than 40 minutes. Bin Laden was shot in the head, officials said, after he and his bodyguards resisted the assault.Three adult males were also killed in the raid, including one of bin Laden’s sons, whom officials did not name. One of bin Laden’s sons, Hamza, is a senior member of al-Qaida. U.S. officials also said one woman was killed when she was used as a shield by a male combatant, and two other women were injured.
Here is what the Vatican says.....
Osama Bin Laden - as everyone knows - has had the gravest responsibility for spreading hatred and division among people, causing the deaths of countless people, and exploiting religion for this purpose.Faced with the death of a man, a Christian never rejoices, but reflects on the serious responsibility of everyone before God and man, and hopes and pledges that every event is not an opportunity for a further growth of hatred, but of peace.”
My Personal comment.....
I am glad that the army reached its goal but like the Vatican I feel that I can not rejoice over his death instead that he has revived justice suitable enough for him and I will continue to pray for his soul.
Something you probably did not know is that the terrorists planned on attacking the Chicago train systems on 9/11/11 but since we have found out they have delayed that .
