God Bless our brave Navy Seals who carried out this dangerous mission. This is an outstanding accomplishment. I hope this brings some sense of justice and closure to those who lost loved ones on 9/11.
From Haaretz:
"he officials did not immediately say where or how the testing was done but the test explains why Obama was confident to announce to the world on Sunday night that the mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001 had been killed in a U.S. helicopter raid on a mansion near the Pakistani capital Islamabad.
The initial DNA results show a "very confident match" to bin Laden, giving "high confirmation" that it was bin Laden killed in the raid in Pakistan, one of the officials said.
In addition to the DNA testing, the U.S. also used facial recognition techniques to help identify him, a U.S. official said after the operation.
Senior U.S. administration officials said the body would be handled according to Islamic practice and tradition.
That practice calls for the body to be buried within 24 hours, the official said. Finding a country willing to accept the remains of the world's most wanted terrorist would have been difficult, the official said. So the U.S. decided to bury him at sea."
From Mirror: DNA evidence taken from the body of Osama bin Laden proves he is dead, according to the US government.
Two Barack Obama adminitration officials say they can say with 99.9% confidence that they got their man.
The officials did not say where or how the testing was done but the test explains why President Barack Obama was confident to announce the death to the world last night.
Here is a video of the firefight that killed Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan.
It was 24 Navy Seals who took down Usama Bin Laden in northern Pakistan. This is absolutely amazing!
