Thread: Osama Bin Laden in Pakistani

To answer your second question: NATO (North American Treaty Organization, which the US is a member of, you don't have to name them separately.) shouldn't do a damn thing.

As much as Osama was a bad man, he was just that: One man. Last time two nations went to war over one man was in 1914 when Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated.

I think a quote from the West Wing episode "Twenty-Five" puts it best:

Speaker Walken: Franz Ferdinand, who was the nephew of the Austro-Hungarian emperor, was killed by a group called the Black Hand. And because they were a Serbian nationalist society, the empire declared war on Serbia. Then Russia, which was bound by a treaty, was forced to mobilize which meant that Germany had to declare war on Russia. Then France declared war on Germany, and that was World War I. Because the emperor's nephew was killed.

You don't go to war over one man. Last time that happened, 38,880,500 (est.) died in World War One.

Here's my view on this matter , btw , no offense intended to anyone =D. First of all , take a look at the lifeline of Osama , how long has it been since his presence in this affairs ? I think , that all this is a hoax and osama died many years ago . Moreover did they show dead Osama ?Correct me if I'm wrong , but they just showed dumping him into the sea or something . They dirt show him clearly . Moreover how dum do ppl think that a country's defense is ? US just flew in and captured him ? How did they get the permission for that ? And , don't tell me that pak forces are dead asleep that they actually let this slip by >_> . That's my view on the matter =)

Not to mention, Germany had to pay war reparations under the Treaty of Versailles and national pride plummeted, which essentially caused World War Two.
