Multiple media outlets reporting that Osama Bin Laden has been killed and that US is in possession of his body. Standing by for a presidential statement on all major networks....
Note this is unconfirmed until the presidential address.
Report is that he was killed in a mansion outside of Islamabad.

Just confirmed the DNA match.
But because they say we killed him in Pakistan, doesn't that violate a treaty we had with Pakistan about not killing anyone with in Pakistan borders?
By US 'assets'. I'd imagine the Pakistanis will be fuming....
Right now, don't care what the Pakistan care about. This guy was wanted by the US, with us or against us. IF pakistan wants to be against us thats fine. Good day for the US. We would get this guy anywhere he goes, and we got him. Good job US forces
