After 9/11 queen Elizabeth had the American National Anthem played by the Royal band at Buckingham palace. To my knowledge, this is the only time a foreign National anthem was ever played there. She was the queen of class and to Americans like me will be deeply missed.
Just FYI: After identifying his body, the military brought him aboard the USS Carl Vinson and buried him in the northern Arabian Sea the same day. The U.S. took political, religious and practical factors into consideration when deciding how to bury bin Laden's body. Person we considered a horrible man, we still recognized his religious beliefs . . . no conspiracy theory!
@@gdhaney136 You seem to be confused. Claims from the government and military are not evidence. Again, where can I find the evidence to support these claims?
Was in my apartment with my brother when this news broke. We immediately headed to the nearest bar played Miley Cyrus party in the USA on loop. Hundreds of other people came to that bar for the same reason and everyone kept drinking and singing along with the song over and over. Epic
Shortly after 9/11, British PM Tony Bliar addressed Parliament saying "America will Not go it alone." Not long after, British troops deployed to Afghanistan. Fast fwd to early 2003, Brits were w/us in Kuwait & Iraq. UK is a great nation. Great partner & friend to USA. For life of me, I can't understand why Brits aren't as patriotic as Americans. Fly your flag & fly it PROUDLY (it's Never been more important). Politicians many suck in every nation. But, pride in your nation is different. Consider flying your flag at your home. The more who do, the more who will. Thanks for reacting to this! Nobody expects the 2 of u to be experts in everything, so don't worry abt that.
As a former special ops member, I can 100% confirm that the UK has been there, supporting and carrying out missions alongside the USA... and they continue to this day. Fly the Union Jack proudly!
As horrific as 9/11 was, the one thing it did was bring us together. It didn't matter if you were a republican or a democrat, if you lived in the south or the north, east coast or west coast, we were all American. With how divided the country has been in recent years, it would be nice to see that type of unity again
And it's only in the face of true horror that we come together. And it's happened before. Australia told FDR " HEY! Massive Japanese fleet heading your way!!!!" He let it happen. Because he knew, rightfully so, that the American people wouldn't get behind another massive war when it didn't affect them. Europe was on fire at that point. Hitler basically was taking over. So FDR saw the opportunity and let it happen. Not before taking all the aircraft carriers out first. 9/11 was the same thing. America would never go into a war in the Middle East. Unless someone attacked us first. A solid majority of the people attacking us on that day were Saudi. Including Bin Laden, the Royal Prince. Yet we attacked two countries that couldn't defend themselves in the slightest. Yay contracts. Because you can't invade a country that has nuclear weapons. So you do the next best thing.
My son is a baseball player, youth sports is huge in America. As I watch this video, my son and his friend are fishing behind a youth baseball stadium and I am watching an under 18 baseball try out. I still remember this night. Great reaction.
This made me cry with pride when ever the people of the United States come together it fills me with such American pride that it bring tears to my eyes
Thank you for this video. I still feel my heart swell with pride about that day. Brings tears everytime I watch it. Thank you for your reaction as well. You two are awesome.
Interesting fact: Nearly an hour before the news was announced, Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock tweeted: “Just got word that will shock the world - Land of the free…home of the brave Damn Proud To Be An American.”
Some really eerie coincidences: 1. A Pennsylvania team and New York team were playing. One of the planes crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania and of course the planes that hit the WTC in NYC.. 2. When the news broke, it was the 9th inning and the score was tied, 1-1. 9/11.
Also, Bobby Valentine (was in the broadcast booth for this game) was the Mets manager during the 9/11 attacks. They were also the first game to play after 9/11. Mets & Phillies are also playing in London this weekend.
@@clarky23 But Shanksville is near Pittsburgh, nearly 300 miles away from Philly. NYC is only about an hour and 1/2 from Philly, Shanksville is about 5 hours away. If it were the Pirates and the Mets, then that would have been different.
@@gregcable3250 At this time I'd like to thank the US Dept of Education for wasting my tax money because your English comprehension skills are fucking atrocious my good sir.
We are a very proud people. We the people. I think every country should have that much heart and pride for theirs. We love America. That’s why what’s happening to our country currently and the last 3 and a half years is heartbreaking.
What you were discuessing at the end about how Americans will come together in certain situations reminds me of a phrase of seen and heard others using (Paraphrasing here) "Americans are like family. We'll fight, try to take each other out, and even claim to hate each other, but when threatened we'll unite and come after you with everything we've got."
I remember working security overnight in downtown Chicago and them bringing in the newspaper right as I clocked out and saw the headline it felt surreal like a movie scene.🤯
Thanks guys. I loved this. Brits and Americans always stand united against any common enemy. Great Britain, our mother country, has influenced our culture, religious beliefs, and traditions, for over 300 years. After the original 13 British colonies gained independence, our two countries became valuable trading partners. My father's parents moved from Liverpool, England around 1900. His aunts moved from Wales about the same time. They settled in West Virginia, and became proud Americans. My mom and dad moved to Texas in the 1950's, where I was born and raised. Our diversity is a big part of our strength as a nation. For those that claim America has no culture, I invite them to come here and experience it for themselves. Most will be pleasantly surprised.
Once Osama Bin Laden was positively identified, his body was offered to his family in Saudi Arabia. They declined to have anything to do with it. The USA did not want to give him an earthly burial place as that could potentially become a "Mecca" for his radical followers. So, in the end, the USA took him to sea, gave him all the religious reverences that his faith would require, they weighted his body and slipped it off the side of the ship and left him to the sea. The fact that we showed him the reverence says a LOT about what the USA stands for. Yes, he was loathed, yes he was a criminal and deserved death, but in the end, he also deserved his own personal respect. This is what makes the USA the best country on earth, even though at times we seem to be very lost.
Great reaction video! From sports, politics and a myriad of other issues the U.S. populace does get pulled in different directions. Once a tragedy occurs it amazes me how personal perspectives are pushed aside and how quickly we all become one in support and pride of our country. Keep up the great reactions!
I'm brought to tears every time anything 9/11 is seen, also this event. I don't think most Americans will ever forget where we were at those times. Very respectful reaction, thank you both.❤
It's important to remember that the jubilation over bin Laden's death is directly tied to the September 11th attacks on the U.S. He was the mastermind. So, while he was indeed responsible for other terrorist acts across the world, our "personal joy" was all about payback for what he did on September 11, 2001. It also worth noting that a NYC team was playing that night, and that's where the most deaths and the most horrific acts occurred (the planes that hit the WORLD TRADE CENTER). Pennsylvania also played a role in that horrible day. One of the planes with terrorists onboard crashed in that state after people on the plane decide to fight back and prevent the plane from crashing into a highly populated area.
The news was broken live on TV during a WWE wrestling too.. they had their most notable wrestler at the time come out and inform the crowd in attendance.
You'll see all sorts of flags flying here in the U.S. I live in a smal town and I've seen Irish ,German and Mexican flags being flown. I mean You'll see an American flag every 5 houses but still people are proud of their heritage.
I grew up in a small town in Ohio as a 1st generation American. We flew a larger American Flag and then below that, we had my Canadian mom's flag and my Scottish father's flag. 🇺🇸🇨🇦🏴
I was 26 when 9/11 happened and I remember 9/12 how much unity there was amongst ALL of us Americans!! I remember every one holding doors open for each other and every one consoling each other. It was beautiful yet heartbreaking due to the terrorist attacks a few days prior
I remember that night as vividly as I remember 9/11. I was 19, and went to church with my best friend. I had a profound personal experience and accepted the Holy Spirit into my life. When we got back to his house and walked in, thd TV was on with the news of his death.. It was a wild night.
There was no way he was going to be captured alive. He got war crimed and sent to bottom of the ocean per his tradition. He's lucky he got that much. But to think the government who chased this man for a decade would let him go is insane.
So, he was killed as apposed to arrested for a combination of reasons. Taking him alive was an option the SEALS had, but due to the risks and complexities of the mission, there was gonna be no hesitation to kill him if there was any resistance at all. He resisted. Accounts can be different but largely it is reported that he was pulling/holding a wife or 2 in front of him while NOT being submissive at all. Im sure that sealed his fate in about 2 seconds. The USA had a high risk of things going wrong on the mission and not the most ideal ways of dealing with potential problems that had been considered. Therefore, its a bad idea to let anything de-rail or prolong the mission. Plus, anybody who is not dead or being very submissive with visible hands is a likely cause for an injured or killed soldier, which could also de-rail or prolong the mission. I believe our military knew arresting him and bringing him back here would have some possitive effects, but they also knew being able to do that was looking unlikely. Bin Laden was a very dangeraous person who would obviously be armed, used various explosives and ran an entire terrorst organization. I dont think our military was in the position or mood to afford Bin Laden many courtesies.
The event was especially significant for these teams because three of the hijacked planes went down in the states of New York (Mets) and Pennsylvania (Phillies).
I was in the mall and they announced it at the food courts and everyone had a look of happiness and a look of viciousness that day it was crazy at the time.
We are t that together anymore. We only come together like that in time of terror. Sadly there is more division now than ever. We all love our country but love it very differently and definitely not in unity. It makes me sad. This video made me proud to be an American. But watch the comments I’m gonna to get and u will see what I mean.
I pray for our country to become United once again and not because of some tragedy! I’m so proud to an American every day of my life! I’m 55 and still get emotional every time our beautiful anthem is played. I love my country. I love my flag and I love all Of our diverse people that make this the greatest and freest place in the world! I don’t know how any American can hate on America. Proud American no matter how messed up we seem right now!
It's our mainstream media that portrays us as divided. They plant that seed in our minds, making us think that way. I believe we are more united than what people think.
I remember that night. I couldn't sleep soI turned on the tv and the president came on. I couldn't sleep the rest of the night. The adrenaline was pumping. At my college program for students with disabilities everyone was cheering USA USA and wearing patriotic shirts. Is was so cool to see everyone coming together as a country. What night to be an American!
Love the reaction! Also Tee-ball is kinda a staple for younger kids in the US leading up to baseball. Even in Australia where I grew up, it was big for us to start when we were kids (ofc soccer foremost lol) but tee ball was so much fun. This vid when I first saw it actually brought me to tears. Many Americans remember where we were when 9/11 happened so this was ..
I was seven years old in 2011 and I remember the next day at school we were told that the USA had won. We knew, as third graders, whatever happened was monumental because absolutely everyone was celebrating the day after. I was born 2003, so post 9/11, and I don't think I've been so proud of being American as I was that day.
As an American, I can say that this video gives me chills no matter how many times I watch it, I was 11 when this happened and I remember my family celebrating the death of Osama, and it being on the news, everyone was talking about it, finally after 10 years the bastard was dead, it was a moment that united all americans left or right
Travis same here I remember it clear as day sitting at the dinner table with my now late grandparents and my marine corps grandfather jumped up let out a victorious yell and said fuck yeah our men got that bastard I repeated that and we hugged he took me to McDonalds to celebrate such a victorious moment in history I'm 24 now and still feel the sting of loss of my late grandparents
In the US, not only do you see American flags, but you will also see mainly Irish, Italian, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban or state flags flown with the American flag.
I'm a Mets fan was watching this game remember all this. Philadelphia close to New York and obviously New York Mets home of the Twin Towers. Those fans were very invested in the news. Let's go Mets! USA! 🇺🇸
Bin Laden was killed for a number of reasons. Bin Laden was considered a very difficult individual to take into US custody because of his infamy and position he held to the worldwide jihadist movement. Bin Laden was considered a security nightmare and even securing a place to prosecute and imprison him was considered logistically difficult and a security threat. Also, this operation was a joint CIA-DOD affair. These are not law enforcement agencies. If they wanted to arrest him the FBI would have somehow been involved. I don't think the SEALs had any intention of taking him alive.
Guys, no. We were killing him whether he put his arms up and surrendered or not. Don’t you GET it? He killed thousands, and we had to sneak into Pakistan to get him. Do you actually think our Seal teams were going to follow Pakistani or other RULES!?
Watch Scott Horton's Enough Already playlist and read the book. Obama murdered hundreds of thousands of civilians and fought 3 wars on Al Qaeda's side. Do you think he deserves to be killed in such a fashion?
America: “Baseball, Chevrolet, and apple pie.” Was coined to describe America. Seldom mentioned; she (America), can show the world how payback is a b*tch.
Y'all can watch the movie "Zero Dark Thirty" to learn how the operation was carried out by Seal Team Six and how Bin Laden's hideout was found. Great film portrayal of the true events.
Probably the main reason he was killed rather than captured is because he wasn't sitting alone. He was surrounded by a bunch of men who were there to protect him with their lives.
the only other "major" athletic event going on that night was WWE's Extreme Rules wrestling card. John Cena announced to the ground after the evening was over what happened. You can find it on RUclips.
as a former Army SF soldier that did 6 tours, whenever we get deployed we are briefed on all HVT’s that could potentially be in that region, each HVT is placed in one of 3 different categories… Capture, Capture or Kill and Kill. Osama would have been firmly in the kill category, there’s no way in hell any soldier would have been instructed to capture him if possible, they would have been told to kill him on sight
Many Americans, like myself, consider Brits more as Brother's than mere "allies". You guys should be proud of the UK, despite some of us sneaking in US flags there! 😄 No country is without their faults but the UK was also responsible for a lot of good in the world. Many UK colonies of the past, to this day despite breaking free from Britain, established great nations that not only include the U.S. but also Australia, Canada, South Africa, Singapore and many more. Fly that beautiful Union Jack flag proudly!
You know I really feel bad celebrating someone dying. But I had to go to a funeral for this and watch my friend cry and give a eulogy for his pregnant sister. Then the husband drinks himself to death. And I remember feeling so afraid as this was happening. Like such a fear because I don't understand what is happening. Idk it's hard to explain
There are youtube videos about the raid that killed Bin Laden. Also, the movie "Zero Dark Thirty" has what seems to be an accurate depiction of that raid
Growing up in the US, especially around DC, I was exposed to every culture and ethnicity. I realized that we all have differences - how could we not being such a massive melting pot country? In times of tragedy or when we are under attack, I've never seen people come together quicker, and I've never seen braver people. We are a different breed, for sure, and lucky to have Canada as a neighbor. I've noticed one major difference between the US and UK socially - we root for success, even if it's not ours. The UK seems to cut people down to size. We are mostly a kind, outgoing people.
"Why didn't they ut him in prison ? Why did they kill him" ???? Did he give those civilians any warning on 9/11 before he took their lives ?? Seal Team 6 went in..... Cocked and Locked and ready to Rock !!! Job well done Men !!
What the Europeans don’t understand about us is that we can have different ideologies. Your example, the man pulled her hijab off (he believes Muslims are hurting this country. The woman who defended her believed in her right to religious freedom. Even with their opposing views if an outside influence threatened the USA we will pool back together immediately. Our ability to come together on a dime has not only saved us but saved the western world
My husband can’t stand on a line at the store or post office and not talk to the people on line with us, not to mention the cashier… it’s what we do here. Not talking to another human being standing right beside you or in the elevator is weird to me and ten times more uncomfortable. At least just say “hi, how are you doing?” Acknowledge their existence. You can’t imagine how good that makes another person feel. It may make all the difference in how they feel for the rest of the day.
he was killed in the raid. body was given a sea burial as they did not want to make a mecca. no Contry wanted him. by his religion he couldn't be cremated sooo to the bottom of the ocean.
You also have to realize that among those 40,000 fans in the stadium there were people who were affected by 9/11 who not only were victims of the event as a nation but had family & friends taken from them on the orders of BL. So it wasn’t just the news BL was killed it was a justice for them personally as well.
Can you react to Carly Anna’s video on the Jarrell Texas tornado? I think it gives a better perspective on the power often associated with the strongest ones.
In case it hasn’t been mentioned, his wives pointed guns at the Seal Team members why he used them as human shields. One of the many reasons he wasn’t simply arrested. I’m also glad you view us as a united country. Certainly doesn’t feel that way at the moment. 😕❤
Ya know, if your going to be a reactor on the you tube, be like these guys. They are able to just watch without constantly talking over the video, and they don't behave like idiots.

Therefore, its a bad idea to let anything de-rail or prolong the mission. Plus, anybody who is not dead or being very submissive with visible hands is a likely cause for an injured or killed soldier, which could also de-rail or prolong the mission. I believe our military knew arresting him and bringing him back here would have some possitive effects, but they also knew being able to do that was looking unlikely. Bin Laden was a very dangeraous person who would obviously be armed, used various explosives and ran an entire terrorst organization. I dont think our military was in the position or mood to afford Bin Laden many courtesies.
Well said
This was the last moment we all felt together. Sadly, it sometimes takes a tragedy to bring people together.
The event was especially significant for these teams because three of the hijacked planes went down in the states of New York (Mets) and Pennsylvania (Phillies).
I was in the mall and they announced it at the food courts and everyone had a look of happiness and a look of viciousness that day it was crazy at the time.
Now look how united we are.
We are t that together anymore. We only come together like that in time of terror. Sadly there is more division now than ever. We all love our country but love it very differently and definitely not in unity. It makes me sad. This video made me proud to be an American. But watch the comments I’m gonna to get and u will see what I mean.
I pray for our country to become United once again and not because of some tragedy! I’m so proud to an American every day of my life! I’m 55 and still get emotional every time our beautiful anthem is played. I love my country. I love my flag and I love all
Of our diverse people that make this the greatest and freest place in the world! I don’t know how any American can hate on America. Proud American no matter how messed up we seem right now!
It's our mainstream media that portrays us as divided. They plant that seed in our minds, making us think that way. I believe we are more united than what people think.
I love your compassion
The majority of the people in this stadium likely had only a couple of degrees of connection to someone we lost in 9/11. This is NY
Game was in Philly
@@Capydachi versus who?
And how far apart are they?
I remember that night. I couldn't sleep soI turned on the tv and the president came on. I couldn't sleep the rest of the night. The adrenaline was pumping. At my college program for students with disabilities everyone was cheering USA USA and wearing patriotic shirts. Is was so cool to see everyone coming together as a country. What night to be an American!
Love the reaction!
Also Tee-ball is kinda a staple for younger kids in the US leading up to baseball. Even in Australia where I grew up, it was big for us to start when we were kids (ofc soccer foremost lol) but tee ball was so much fun.
This vid when I first saw it actually brought me to tears. Many Americans remember where we were when 9/11 happened so this was ..
Im half English and I will say that your motto is still tough. Keep calm, carry on. When push comes to shove, trust me Brits would unite
I was seven years old in 2011 and I remember the next day at school we were told that the USA had won. We knew, as third graders, whatever happened was monumental because absolutely everyone was celebrating the day after. I was born 2003, so post 9/11, and I don't think I've been so proud of being American as I was that day.
Memorial day was Monday. That is probably why the flag was out.
As an American, I can say that this video gives me chills no matter how many times I watch it, I was 11 when this happened and I remember my family celebrating the death of Osama, and it being on the news, everyone was talking about it, finally after 10 years the bastard was dead, it was a moment that united all americans left or right
Travis same here I remember it clear as day sitting at the dinner table with my now late grandparents and my marine corps grandfather jumped up let out a victorious yell and said fuck yeah our men got that bastard I repeated that and we hugged he took me to McDonalds to celebrate such a victorious moment in history I'm 24 now and still feel the sting of loss of my late grandparents
You should react to Iowa hawkeye wave story on espn college gameday
In the US, not only do you see American flags, but you will also see mainly Irish, Italian, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban or state flags flown with the American flag.
I'm a Mets fan was watching this game remember all this. Philadelphia close to New York and obviously New York Mets home of the Twin Towers. Those fans were very invested in the news. Let's go Mets! USA! 🇺🇸
I knew her question would come, and I explodes . younger people has totally different wieve points and experience
Brainwashing Children is very effective
We love everyone! don't buy into the media BS
You should review "the man in the red bandana," It's only 15 minutes long but a true story about 9/11 that will break your heart.
Bin Laden was killed for a number of reasons. Bin Laden was considered a very difficult individual to take into US custody because of his infamy and position he held to the worldwide jihadist movement. Bin Laden was considered a security nightmare and even securing a place to prosecute and imprison him was considered logistically difficult and a security threat.
Also, this operation was a joint CIA-DOD affair. These are not law enforcement agencies. If they wanted to arrest him the FBI would have somehow been involved. I don't think the SEALs had any intention of taking him alive.
funny enough in my small town someone has a flag that the top half is american and the bottom part is the british flag lol
Trivia there are 9 innings in baseball but ties arent allowed if there is a tie the game goes into extra innings
Guys, no.
We were killing him whether he put his arms up and surrendered or not. Don’t you GET it?
He killed thousands, and we had to sneak into Pakistan to get him.
Do you actually think our Seal teams were going to follow Pakistani or other RULES!?
Watch Scott Horton's Enough Already playlist and read the book.
Obama murdered hundreds of thousands of civilians and fought 3 wars on Al Qaeda's side. Do you think he deserves to be killed in such a fashion?
America: “Baseball, Chevrolet, and apple pie.” Was coined to describe America. Seldom mentioned; she (America), can show the world how payback is a b*tch.
I remembered stapling the newspaper that said "Bastards Dead" over my front door.👍🏼
Y'all can watch the movie "Zero Dark Thirty" to learn how the operation was carried out by Seal Team Six and how Bin Laden's hideout was found. Great film portrayal of the true events.
Probably the main reason he was killed rather than captured is because he wasn't sitting alone. He was surrounded by a bunch of men who were there to protect him with their lives.
the only other "major" athletic event going on that night was WWE's Extreme Rules wrestling card. John Cena announced to the ground after the evening was over what happened. You can find it on RUclips.
as a former Army SF soldier that did 6 tours, whenever we get deployed we are briefed on all HVT’s that could potentially be in that region, each HVT is placed in one of 3 different categories… Capture, Capture or Kill and Kill. Osama would have been firmly in the kill category, there’s no way in hell any soldier would have been instructed to capture him if possible, they would have been told to kill him on sight
Many Americans, like myself, consider Brits more as Brother's than mere "allies". You guys should be proud of the UK, despite some of us sneaking in US flags there! 😄 No country is without their faults but the UK was also responsible for a lot of good in the world. Many UK colonies of the past, to this day despite breaking free from Britain, established great nations that not only include the U.S. but also Australia, Canada, South Africa, Singapore and many more. Fly that beautiful Union Jack flag proudly!
Every time I see Obama say those words, I can’t help but tear up a bit. 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸!
Geez we have fallen so far in a short amount of time God help us all and GOD BLESS AMERICA. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
There are crimes where you should be arrested but then there are crimes where that goes out the window.
React to Zero Dark Thirty its the movies based on the whole situation leading up to the raid of Bin Ladens compound.
You know I really feel bad celebrating someone dying. But I had to go to a funeral for this and watch my friend cry and give a eulogy for his pregnant sister. Then the husband drinks himself to death. And I remember feeling so afraid as this was happening. Like such a fear because I don't understand what is happening. Idk it's hard to explain
Neptune Spear- Was a Kill/Capture Mission however Seal Team 6 went with The Kill.
There are youtube videos about the raid that killed Bin Laden. Also, the movie "Zero Dark Thirty" has what seems to be an accurate depiction of that raid
Yall should check out the movie Zero Dark Thirty. It goes into depth on the Bin Laden raid.
I was on my laptop and watched the announcement on TV when Osama was killed and I posted on my Twitter and Facebook and was so excited!!! 🇺🇲
Now you guys need to watch “osama bin Laden raid, minute by minute” by the infographics, pretty great video on the whole takedown
Growing up in the US, especially around DC, I was exposed to every culture and ethnicity. I realized that we all have differences - how could we not being such a massive melting pot country? In times of tragedy or when we are under attack, I've never seen people come together quicker, and I've never seen braver people. We are a different breed, for sure, and lucky to have Canada as a neighbor. I've noticed one major difference between the US and UK socially - we root for success, even if it's not ours. The UK seems to cut people down to size. We are mostly a kind, outgoing people.
"Why didn't they ut him in prison ? Why did they kill him" ???? Did he give those civilians any warning on 9/11 before he took their lives ?? Seal Team 6 went in..... Cocked and Locked and ready to Rock !!! Job well done Men !!
I remember that game and the night i was in a bar in allentown just north of philly
What the Europeans don’t understand about us is that we can have different ideologies. Your example, the man pulled her hijab off (he believes Muslims are hurting this country. The woman who defended her believed in her right to religious freedom. Even with their opposing views if an outside influence threatened the USA we will pool back together immediately. Our ability to come together on a dime has not only saved us but saved the western world
It took TEN years to catch Bin Ladin.
My husband can’t stand on a line at the store or post office and not talk to the people on line with us, not to mention the cashier… it’s what we do here. Not talking to another human being standing right beside you or in the elevator is weird to me and ten times more uncomfortable. At least just say “hi, how are you doing?” Acknowledge their existence. You can’t imagine how good that makes another person feel. It may make all the difference in how they feel for the rest of the day.
The country was so damn united at this time. It sucks where we are today
he was killed in the raid. body was given a sea burial as they did not want to make a mecca. no Contry wanted him. by his religion he couldn't be cremated sooo to the bottom of the ocean.
I don’t know why though, he wasn’t a true Muslim. Islam religion talks nothing about killing innocents just for your own evil agenda.
I like the British flag The Union Jack i see the design on shirts here in USA my grandmothers ancestors were from the UK ....
Pretty sure Twitter wasn't even out during this unless it was only for rich people
You also have to realize that among those 40,000 fans in the stadium there were people who were affected by 9/11 who not only were victims of the event as a nation but had family & friends taken from them on the orders of BL. So it wasn’t just the news BL was killed it was a justice for them personally as well.
Can you react to Carly Anna’s video on the Jarrell Texas tornado? I think it gives a better perspective on the power often associated with the strongest ones.
In case it hasn’t been mentioned, his wives pointed guns at the Seal Team members why he used them as human shields. One of the many reasons he wasn’t simply arrested. I’m also glad you view us as a united country. Certainly doesn’t feel that way at the moment. 😕❤
I was in army medic school when this happened
And the drink that the bars served, the Bin Laden, two shot and a splash.
They did not want his burial place to become a place of religious pilgrimage and martyr worship, so they gave his body a burial at sea.
Love your videos.
Seymour Hersh said they threw a body out of a helicopter, Benazir Bhutto said Bin Laden dies of Kidney failure in December 2001. Take your pick.
Ya know, if your going to be a reactor on the you tube, be like these guys. They are able to just watch without constantly talking over the video, and they don't behave like idiots.
Awesome video.
I remember this, my son was in kindergarten, he 27 and he knows nothing about
Phillies & Mets are playing a two game series in London this weekend! You two going??
Had no idea! We’ll see if we can get tickets 😊
You two have to go & vlog it!
