The most feared man in the world ended his life looking and living like Howard Hughes.
It appears that Osama bin Laden spent the last few years of his life holed up in the bedroom of a squalid, ramshackle “estate.” In videos captured by Navy Seals, the Al Qaeda leader is seen wrapped in a blanket and wearing a ratty ski cap while watching himself on TV.
No word on whether he was wearing Kleenex boxes instead of shoes.
Loser.

Not too many long agos, this aswhad was reportedly worth 70 billion USD or some such astronomical figure some of which he managed to squirrel away prior to getting the proverbial bootprint on his back from dad, much of it a remnant from investment in the heroin trade - as the profits from selling poison to the infidels with which they ruin their own society are huge! - but he was offering 10 mil for those handy 'briefcase nooks' for unknown purposes. Squalor is the manner in which allah and morehumid insist the faithful live, that to waste time or resources which are better utilized to the fullest to fight the kaffir, so spare no time for anything but jihad, bro.
Too bad for bin Laden he died of lead poisoning a week ago. He could have sent this footage into America's Funniest Videos and had a shot at winning $10,000
ha, ha!
If he'd won the 10 grand he could have used it to hire some maids to pick up around the place.
You know when you were little and you used go into department store changing rooms with two opposing mirrors, hoping that they were so perfectly alinged that when you would stand between them you could watch your reflection bounce off into infinity? That somehow as your reflection quickly approached the end of this world as we know it, you thought it would somehow unlock dimension-X - thereby releasing Bebop and Rocksteady into this realm to carry out your most horrible bidding?
That's OBL's tactic here.....watch himself, watching himself, watching himself, watching himself, watching himself......Bebop kills the infidel.
Insanity like that - priceless.
WTF? Bin Laden was videotaped watching videotapes of himself. Was he then going to watch the new videotapes of himself watching the old videotapes of himself? He's either the ultimate narcissist or a pathetic loon.
The SEALs did him a favor.
Howard Hughes indeed. Pathetic doesn't even come close in describing this man. His lead a worthless life to the end.
That's a pretty sad looking man-cave. Doesn't he have minions to at least dust? Maybe pick up a desk with all the drawers at a garage sale? Maybe a couch so he doesn't have to sit on the dirty floor? I mean, I get it if he wanted to "live with less" (hey, Osama was an environmentalist!) but at least do it neatly. You'd think with four wives, someone would be nagging him to clean up his mess. Of course, she might get beheaded for it.
"Live with less?" I didn't realize that he was a fan of Prince Charles?
This is how many of the young green hipsters live in my town and they consider it to be making less of a carbon footprint.
Watch for OBL to become the newest left-wing icon. His face will be plastered on green t-shirts in Che Guevarra fashion.
Your comment is both insightful and hilarious. :-)
Osama Bin Laden - Couch Potato
Maybe he was taking some needed time out from playing World of Warcraft II.
He could always have been watching old reruns of "My Friend Flicka" or he could have been watching this: http://youtu.be/mfF1vkMQ0h0
Now THAT's funny!
