Does anybody know if any of our people were injured/killed?

The MSM is reporting that there were no US casualties/injuries in the operation.

So far it doesn't sound like it, but ABC was reporting there were multiple people in the house killed, not just OBL.

I heard them mention:

OBL himself
His oldest son
A woman being used as a human shield
A courier.

Details are still a little foggy.

That was my favorite part. I had to rerun that part to confirm what I thought I had read.

Sheesh. Cindy Sheehan just had to inject herself in this matter.

QuoteI am sorry, but if you believe the newest death of OBL, you're stupid. Just think to yourself–they paraded Saddam's dead sons around to prove they were dead–why do you suppose they hastily buried this version of OBL at sea? This lying, murderous Empire can only exist with your brainwashed consent–just put your flags away and THINK!

I really think Cindy Sheehan is still around solely to piss you off.  It's certainly not to affect Democratic politics, or even the liberal agenda broadly, because it's been years since she's done either.

Wow, first OBL is deep-sixed on Obama's watch, now Cindy Sheehan?

You ever watch the movie 'Scanners'?

That would certainly ruin the moment, but its possible the "mechanical difficulties" that caused the UH-60 to crash may have been related to gunfire it was reportedly receiving from below.  You would expect at least an injury report here, or from the other helicopter that reportedly burst into flames when it crashed in a residential district.

Even if it's not as rosy as we would like, overall, it was still something that needed to be done.  I would hate to be the next-of-kin to a family that might have been asked to stay silent if it didnt go perfectly, but I can see where it might be viewed as an honorable (if not patriotic) thing to do.   
For the sake of history, Im hoping the video of the raid is preserved for future generations.
