Hopefully this will kill of the silly theories going around the internet.

A "statement by Al Qaeda" could be made by anyone, and if it's the CIA "verifying" it, I'm not sure what is proved here exactly.

The theories about OBL may not be true, but I'd like you to explain why they are "silly".

To be exact, the theories that the Obama pretended to kill OBL in Pakistan but in fact killed somebody else. Simply ludicrious.

You may not have held such 'silly' theories, but in my opinion they are silly.

Where is my post on this subject? Deleted by the CIA no doubt

Edit.. Found it in the other thread on this subject...

"Simply ludicrous"... Not much of an argument, that, if you don't mind me saying. Ah who cares, I'm bored of this conversation.

So it seems we won't get any photographic evidence of OBL's death:

Surely there must be some footage or stills that could be released?
