“Ding Dong! The Witch
is dead. Which old Witch? (Osama bin Mohammed bin Awad
bin Laden) The
Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead.”[1]
The Wicked Witch is
dead. But unlike Dorothy, we can’t click
our heels, and go home to
The homeland has changed.
The infamous mass murderer’s denouement was accomplished by a team of US Seals brilliantly deployed by the US Special Operations Command under the very noses of the Pakistani officials who were “oblivious” to this mass murderer’s presence on their soil.
President Obama’s televised statement last night announcing the termination of the alpha terror leader of the day was pitch-perfect.
Having worked the problem since last fall when the Intel
first emerged, rapidly maturing to an “actionable” quality, our new president
eventually gave the green light, and
Osama bin Laden’s death is symbolically significant in the war on terror (more accurately the western resistance to jihad). If it is to be more than that, this president’s run of good luck will need to continue.
A cautionary note to democratic politicians: The first Iraqi War, a brilliant diplomatic and military accomplishment by President G H Bush, left the first President Bush so high in the polls in 1991, that he seemed unbeatable.
But unemployment was “high” at 7.5%l and Bush 41 became a one term president.

Osama’s cold body was dumped into the cold sea, reportedly submerged with all appropriate dignity...and gravity.
Why there, you ask? [I would have preferred a HALO drop over his birthplace, but that’s just my nasty side talking.]

Osama’s Life Accomplishments

But it seems that under Osama’s inspiring leadership al
Qaeda has repeatedly exploited and murdered children. The victims of the 911 attacks averaged 40
years old, but the body count included toddlers from 2 though kids 11 years
old. A recent Freedom of Information act
Disclosure to Judicial Watch revealed a deliberate campaign by al-Qaeda to
recruit juveniles and launch terrorist attacks against children. This information was pried out of the Obama
administration’s bureaucracy, when the FOI request by
Judicial Watch yielded two Joint Task
Force Intelligence Information Reports compiling debriefs of detainees at
What would Jesus Recommend?
The most widely known Jewish sage of all time, a certain
first century rabbi (Jesus of Nazareth) counseled that we love little children;
and he warned that anyone who would break the trust of “the little ones” would
better have a great millstone fastened around his neck and drowned in the
depths of the sea.” [Compare Matthew
18:6, Luke 17: 1-2, Mark
The practice of dumping a body at sea is allowed by Islam in extremis, but not preferred. Any earthly interment of this evil monster would have been a jihad pilgrim magnet, so the disposal at sea option may have been motivated by practical considerations alone.
But I prefer to think of it as the uniquely Christian option. If a millstone was not available, I’m sure the US Navy found an adequate substitute.
