So Osama is dead ...

Hot in the media currently .... Osama is dead .... who is this Osama anyway? According to wikipedia he was a descendent of a wealthy Saudi clan called Saudi Bin Laden. I first heard about Osama in 1998 when I was studying in the US. During that time, the big issue was the sex scandal of Bill Clinton and Monica Lewensky. So I still remember at that time, my friends and I were guessing that it was some kind of a "Wag the Dog" thing (a diversion). 

Then in Sept 11, 2001, Osama was said to be responsible of attacking the twin tower and other targets. As a result, the US launched an attacked on Afghanistan .... hmmm what the heck, so because of Osama, then Afghanistan was punished. And yes he lived for many years, nearly 10 years after the twin tower incident. So now he is dead, killed by Navy Seals and CIA in Pakistan.

For myself, I am not convinced that Osama really exists and I knew a number of people who share the same thought. Even 10 or 20 years ago there are technologies to reconstruct facial and the entire body. There are also the mass media to popularize the man that they called Osama Bin Laden. The existence of Osama instill fear in the mind of the people, therefore a war is inevitable. So does the technology for war ... the missile guidance, the stealth fighters, the UAV, UUV, optical facial recognition technology, etc .... this means money of course. The Osama story line is just like the Cobra Commander ... although with some alteration ... yes you do need a villain in order to have a hero.

Anyway Osama is dead ... been given a MEGATRON type burial service ... so the world could be a better place now ...

But then as I have just finishing this entry, I saw this picture ... since they said it is on public domain so I paste it here ....

   

The last time I checked, the current President of the United States is Mr. Barrack Obama. As President he is also the Commander in Chief of the US armed forces .... but why Mr. Obama is sitting on the far end corner of this room???? Funny how the Americans work ... in Malaysia, the boss always sit on the best chair ....
