President Obama announced yesterday in an historic live statement from the White House that Osama Bin Laden has been killed.
“We give thanks to the men who carried out this operation,” he said, citing those who pulled off the mission in Pakistan as exemplifying patriotism at its finest. “America can accomplish anything we set our mind to“, Obama added, calling the completed mission the “most significant achievement to date in the fight against Al Qaeda.”
CNN, The Wall Street Journal, FOX and the New York Times “raced” to confirm.
ABBOTTABAD, Pakistan — The death of Osama bin Laden in a fortress-like compound on the outskirts of a Pakistani city that is home to three army regiments and thousands of soldiers raises questions over whether Pakistani security forces knew the whereabouts of the world’s most wanted man.
The “specialists” from the US Administration say that he was “hidding” in that special building, custom built for accommodating someone of significance.
Anyway, the cooling relationship between Pakistan and USA lead to this “tip” received by the CIA, which again lead to the ten million USD ransom put by the US Government on his head, with all the reticence of how the Pakistani authorities will look in the eyes of America, after pretending they “knew nuffing”. They knew nothing maybe because there wasn’t anything to know. Something deeper happened in fact, and to encourage the people to feast because the monster is no more, not showing his body or anything, as they showed in Saddam’s case, smells like another arrangement made to the highest levels of power on the planet. Actually, they may show a body as well, they’ll show on youtube or on tv, and “don’t comment”, all this being a matter of National Security. The people can start again to be happy when the above mentioned level of power will be transferred in people’s hands. Some commando group infiltrates in a place infested with local military and destroys a “conspicuous” building, where the most wanted guy on Earth was allegedly hiding under the noses of the same locals. The news spread on Twitter, I mean the people saw Obama’s cheers and stimulation to joy, and they start “twittering”, like they start and spread the “revolution” in Egypt, where at a moment, even the internet was forbidden. I have to say that with all the official banning of something, there still are meanings to access the web, using the mobile phone, or changing the DNS settings, or whatever it requires. But, that’s not possible where one has a minimum access to technology. So, the few thousands of reporters and CIA operatives equipped with the required technology (satellite phones and antennas), start “spreading” the revolution there, as well. What I’ve noticed is that especially in America, the “revolutions” are made on Facebook and Twitter, now.
In a time when I was guiding Scottish people through some hidden Mediterranean gulfs, on the German arte channel, appeared another controversial documentary about the Romanian Revolution and American policy. The year I think is 2004, the director is German, her name is Susanne Brandstatter, and the film is called Checkmate. Strategy of a Revolution
There are six parts on youtube channel, each of ten minutes, and they can be accessed successively at the end of each one. It is not my opinion. It is not former President’s Iliescu opinion. It is a closer version of what happened, with the “directed” deaths and use of devices to create a “revolution”. I hope that the language being German is not an impediment. English subtitles are embed. It is an explanation of what a revolution is in modern times. I wonder when all this “chess play” will end. This can be translated in “when are we starting to think with our own mind”.
As President en titre Obama said: “On nights like this one, we can say that justice has been done.” This is all that matters, apparently. The Obama’s were not invited to the Royal Wedding, and something must balance this on the other side of the Atlantic. Or maybe they wanted to blur the significance of “bin Laden” symbol with the flashy and designed media-tic event.

The good thing is that you look after the site went down, 🙂 Some outdated plugin gave errors which amplified in such a measure, I couldn’t access the backups. But it passed quick, as it begun, this is the marvel of managing your own domain from a proper hosting platform.
Thank you very much Rich, you flattered me, so many wonderful words from a recognized personality melt my ego, 🙂
