== 'Bin Laden' vs 'Osama bin Laden' ==

The article suggests:

:Strictly speaking, Arabic linguistic conventions dictate that he be referred to as "Osama" or "Osama bin Laden", not "bin Laden", as "Bin Laden" is not used as a surname in the Western manner, but simply as part of his name, which in its long form means "Osama, son of Mohammed, son of 'Awad, son of Laden". Still, "bin Laden" has become nearly universal in Western references to him.

Considering this, I think we should change all instances of 'bin Laden' to 'Osama bin Laden'.

Death

Can we give some credence to the fact that he might be dead? It has been speculated a few times and the main dates are pinned down to July or December 2001, with a few other dates suggested. Angelo Codevilla, of the American Spectator, says that there has not been a credible sighting of OBL since 2001 and that all the subsequent video and audio are very clearly not him (due to voice and appearance). Then, professor David Ray Griffin wrote a book entitled Osama Bin Laden: Dead or Alive, which provides a strong case and a date of death: 13 December 2001. And then there is the fact that OBL denied involvement four times* after 9/11, before suddenly arising to claim responsibility (on Griffins asserted death date). He appears very differently in the video published on that date, and unlike his [wahhabism|religious beliefs]]. Pervez Musharraf and Benazir Bhutto both claimed he died years ago, for kidney failure (2001) and assassination (2004?), respectively.

I would like to take the example of Alois Brunner, who is believed dead (he would be 99 now), but its unknown when. Here we have some dates and can then note that these are speculated or unconfirmed, but have some shadows of evidence to ground them. At some point, it will have to be recognized that he is dead. Why wait until 2057, when he would be 100 and the odds are ridiculous? I am willing to do the work on this, but I would like some support and comments from others to see if I am thinking realistically.

Please put a talkback on my talkpage if you reply. I tend to forget that I posted on a talk page.

*These articles I cited also make the case that OBL wasnt even involved in 9/11 and Codevilla suggests it was Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. I would love to get that more prominence in this and the 9/11 article, but there is so limited citing on it. I dont know why people dont even think of this possibility. The government cant because they would have to admit they were wrong, but independent sources certainly could speculate more about it.

Remove section

I suggest that this section be removed: Reports of his current whereabouts. Thoughts? Jujutacular talk 03:13, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Or just rename it. Rklawton (talk) 03:14, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Rename it, yeah. Don't delete it -- it's useful because that information had an impact on political discussions of the time. The historical significance of where people thought he was hasn't disappeared with his death. --Aquillion (talk) 03:16, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm in shock. I found out playing Millionaire on Facebook of all places, one of my fellow players was watching NBC when they announced it. As for this section, I say let's hold on until the major spurt of activity dies down a bit. I agree we can't discuss his current whereabouts anymore; it's in U.S. custody in a coffin, or some disgraceful wrapping. CycloneGU (talk) 03:17, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
His current whereabouts, or at least his dead body, is currently in US military custody. It should be merged with his death section. —Terrence and Phillip 03:23, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to what I heard on CNN not long ago, he died eight hours before but they only announced it now. I haven't heard of him dying a week ago as others said. We'd best sit on the presumed death date (today) until otherwise is confirmed. CycloneGU (talk) 04:04, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Early reports said the 24th, but that alleged fact disappeared after the speech. It would be nice to find out the precise LOCAL date and time for whatever "today" means in this case, and its UTC equivalent. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 04:21, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

latest on death

Two days ago OBL aged 54, was killed by a small team of US special forces at a luxury compound 50km north east of Islamabad ,the capital of Pakistan.The body is in the custody of US forces.Pakistani special service forces have been watching the villa for some time -some reports say a month.It appears that President Obama was informed before the US team stormed the villa and killed OBL in a firefight(not a drone fired from a Predator drone as previously reported).It took 2 days to make a postive DNA identification using a sample provided by one of his many sisters.

According to CTV News, Obama tried to make it clear that none of the people involved were American. I think we should avoid saying who was involved at all until we know for certain exactly who actually was involved. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.69.129.43 (talk) 04:09, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

President's speech

Verbatim excerpt: "And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice. Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targetted operation against that compound in Abbotabad, Pakistan. A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care to avoid civilian casualties. After a fire fight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body." Rklawton (talk) 04:56, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Death on May 2nd?

Obama's speech was made on May 2, around ~9:30AM Pakistan time.

So unless his death was kept secret for about 10 hours, current evidence seems to indicate he actually died on May 2nd local time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jzemla (talk • contribs) 05:14, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It was kept secret for awhile (read the speech), but it's not clear if it's more than 10 hours - so it's possible OBL died on the 1st or the 2nd local time, so we'll just have to wait and see. Rklawton (talk) 05:18, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It was announced in Washington in the evening of May 1st. The speech was at around 11:30pm EDT on May 1st, which is May 2 3:30 UTC, and Mr. Obama said "today". Unless/until reliable sources are provided to show another date, it will not be changed.  Chzz  ►  05:19, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Death

Main article: Death of Osama bin Laden
Wikinews has related news:

On May 1, 2011, President Obama announced that Osama bin Laden was killed earlier that day by "a small team of Americans" acting under his direct orders, in a covert operation in Abbottabad, Pakistan, 32 miles (51 km) (or 93 miles by road) north of Islamabad,[2][3] affirming earlier confirmation by US officials to the media. The site is just a few kilometers from the Pakistan Military Academy in Kakul.[4] DNA from bin Laden's body, compared with DNA samples on record from his dead sister,[citation needed] confirmed bin Laden's identity.[5] The body was recovered by the US military and is in its custody.[3]

Fox news said his birthday was July 30, 1957. And they have his name as Usama.

declined. We've been getting a spectacular number of errors from fox news about this and Osama is the generaly accepted spelling.©Geni 06:09, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Fox News has a reputation for being rather slip-shod when it comes to fact-checking, it's unsurprising that they got the wrong birthday. As for the spelling of his name, it boils down to different ways of translating Arabic script into the English alphabet (witness various spellings of the Islamic holy text - Koran, Qur'an, Kuran, and Curan). "Osama" is the most commonly used spelling, and I'd just as soon go with the BBC spelling rather than FOX's. Badger Drink (talk) 06:13, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"Usama" is a variant transliteration, as with Kadaffi's name, of which there are several spellings. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 06:32, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

'Bin Laden' vs 'Osama bin Laden'

The article suggests:

Strictly speaking, Arabic linguistic conventions dictate that he be referred to as "Osama" or "Osama bin Laden", not "bin Laden", as "Bin Laden" is not used as a surname in the Western manner, but simply as part of his name, which in its long form means "Osama, son of Mohammed, son of 'Awad, son of Laden". Still, "bin Laden" has become nearly universal in Western references to him.

Considering this, I think we should change all instances of 'bin Laden' to 'Osama bin Laden'.
