" and finally "I think America did this so that twitter could increase revenue with their latest twitter Contest. 'Best Osama is Dead Jokes'." 

Osama dead. Great news. But it does uncover pakistans role in giving osama shelter. So pak lied ?

Whatever the future of terrorism is after the death of osama I am right now so very very very happy fr America..3000 CHEERS!!!

ameesha_patel ameesha patel Hope the news is true about osama being dead. N it isn't an impostor that monster capable of anything

This doesn't mean the end of terror & we shd be aware of that! Incidentally body already disposed of so no physical proof either!

The U.S does a covert operation in Pakistan,with their support & gets Osama,why can't we get the Mumbai serial blast & 26/11 masterminds ?

Kudos to America's intelligence and security forces for Operation Bin Laden. It is important to pursue goals and then achieve them.:)

That's the update from the active socials of B-Town. We trust there will be many more coming... Meanwhile, don't forget to share your own take on the history making matter!
