Bin Laden Dead?

re charedi newspaper not showing hilary clinton -- i've worked at a couple "ultra-orthodox" newspapers and i've never even heard of that particular one. it probably has a readership in the dozens. aka being upset about this is not so different from being upset about some dude in a basement writing conspiracy dispatches. (and a lot of these are published in residential basements -- and have more problems than photoshopping pix, sometimes they just recycle full news stories without giving byline attribution, or totally invent stories!)

Yeah, I was starting to doubt the whole story too, as googling the name of the newspaper primarily seems to result in links to this particular story on this particular orthodox-critical blog. Apologies I thought it could be plausible.

I'm sure it's "true." It's just also "who cares?"

great that means I may wind up on a no fly list now

why, are you also a grandson of a jewish urologist?

not that i should question the resumé of al awlaki but how is recruiting a dude that stuck a defective bomb in his underwear & subsequently snitched after capture considered a "bona fide" -- seemed like that'd be something he'd try to bury during his interview

The Egyptian dude's greatest accomplishment is spending nine years under house arrest? There's a certain lady in Birma who the USA might want to send a kill team to, then.

anwar al awlaki better get a trademark if he wants to compete

It's invisibility, obv.

trademark: always leaves them wanting more

Oh no, I didn't shave and I have chin fuzz RIGHT NOW! Saif must have put it there while I wasn't looking, I guess. Avenge me!

3000 dead ten years ago isn't too bad of a bloody nose for an empire that unstintingly supports Zionists maniacs.

TA DA!

Background and childhood

Gadahn was born Adam Pearlman, the son of musician Phil Pearlman. Gadahn's Jewish paternal grandfather, Carl Pearlman, was a prominent urologist; and on the Board of Directors of the Anti-Defamation League. According to Gadahn, he was a "zealous supporter" of Israel.[7][8] Gadahn's paternal grandmother, Agnes Branch, a Christian, was an editor for The Christian Family Chronicles ( genealogical publication for people with the surname "Christian").[9] Gadahn's father, originally Phil Pearlman, grew up in Orange County, California. He was involved in the counterculture movement at the University of California at Irvine, and before Adam's birth became a Christian. Gadahn described his father as having been "raised agnostic or atheist, but he became a believer in One God when he picked up a Bible left on the beach.”[2] His father's religious perspective was flexible and based upon his own spiritual needs and as a new convert to Islam, Gadahn portrayed his father in manner sympathetic to his religion of conversion.[2] Phil and his wife Jennifer changed their name to Gadahn, after the Biblical warrior Gideon.[2]
Gadahn was born in Oregon, United States, raised a Protestant Christian, and homeschooled through high school by his parents on an isolated farm in Western Riverside County, California.[2] He played Little League baseball and participated in Christian homeschool support groups. As an adolescent he became very involved in the death metal community, making contact with fans and musicians through alternative magazines.[2] During the summer of 1993, he formed his own one-man band called Aphasia.[2] Gadahn contributed music reviews and artwork to a zine called Xenocide.[2] In 1995, at age 16, Gadahn moved in with his grandparents in the Floral Park neighborhood of Santa Ana, California, where he worked in a computer store and explored the Internet.[2] Not long after, he converted to Islam and lamented the estrangement his musical interest caused between him and his family writing, "My relationship with my parents became strained, although only intermittently so. I am sorry even as I write this."[2]

as a kid i was always very impressed by "blood and treasure"

presidents be countin' on Pavlovian kids

At a family gathering I heard about a conspiracy where Obama killed Osama 8 years ago and kept his body frozen. Apparently being a senator gives you unprecedented access to the military that even Dick Cheney doesn't have. Also I wonder why Obama revealed the killing now, rather than, say, a month before the 2012 election.

As a theory, its pretty ridiculous and needless. I'd actually sooner believe that Osama is a 100% fictional character played by an actor.

you mean State Senator

if Bam killed him in 2003 he probably could've used that in the 2008 election tbh

the plot of the next wacky "average joe gets elected president" satire should be about some guy who accidentally runs over a terrorist driving drunk and becomes a national hero

sounds like alt-history W bio

President Bush…. President Laura Bush.

presidents be countin' on Pavlovian kids

as a five-year-old i loudly supported g.h.w. bush's re-election campaign and sulked when he lost, but only because everyone else in the hotel room we were staying in to watch the returns was for clinton.

At a family gathering I heard about a conspiracy where Obama killed Osama 8 years ago and kept his body frozen.

...exactly what the reaction from everyone else to this piece of knowledge?

It was part of a conversation among a few who are fans of Alex Jones and Infowars and the like. I think it soon took a "Obama is the antichrist destroying the country" turn. I stayed out of the conversation.

happy mother's day!

Make sure their Xmas gifts are of a portrait of Obama with one of those 'eyes that follow you wherever you go' qualities.

when i was in college i was one of the guys that thought bush had bin laden imprisoned in a bunker and he was gonna trot him out in october 04 to win the election. then he didn't, and he won anyway.

One Guardian commenter I saw said "So they found him one year before an election? Hmm, convenient." I hate that conspiracy theorist "hmm". The US is always either in an election year or one year before one. Eighteen months before one is about as inconvenient as it gets.

pretty convenient that they found him at such an inconvenient time, don't you think?

hmm

Bin Laden Dead, dead serious about getting Obama re-elected!
