Bin Laden is Dead
& So Is the Mole
With Doug Johnston
We will always
remember May 1st 2011 as
the day Osama bin Laden
finally met justice. If ever
a human being needed to
be exterminated it was bin
Laden. The mastermind of
the East African Embassy
bombings, the USS Cole bombing and the
911 horror was the face of Al Qaeda and
international terrorism. He was gunned
down in a compound in Pakistan. Halle-
lujah!
It is predictable that bin Laden’s
sons are calling for the world communi-
ty to condemn the United States for the
“murder” of their father. It is also asinine.
The world is a better place with bin Laden
gone. That’s not rocket science.
The Wednesday after bin Laden
was brought to justice I was rewarded
with the number two varmint on my Most
Wanted List being killed as well: Allow
me to explain.
