OSAMA BIN LADEN NEVER EXISTED – Again, this is pretty out there as there are actual videos and audio recordings of bin Laden both pre and post 9/11 but the wackier among us actually believe that he was a carefully constructed caricature of extremist Muslims created to rally public support around whatever the President at the time was doing. If so, that’s pretty remarkable but it seems like the kind of story that would be impossible to prove. Normally those kinds of stories are impossible to prove because they come from the mouths of whacked out nut job conspiracy theorists.
THE OPERATION WAS THE RESULT OF A DEAL BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND SAUDI ARABIA – Saudi Arabia provided the U.S. with the information that led to bin Laden’s death and the U.S. subsequently allowed the Saudis to escalate the conflict in Syria whilst simultaneously suppressing the demonstrations in Bahrain. My knowledge of Middle Eastern politics isn’t really good enough to comment on this (I know I know) but again, it sounds pretty out there right? How the hell did the Saudis even know where bin Laden was?
