This country needs to stop celebrating as if we killed the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks

We did kill the mastermind of the US embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania. Those bombings killed hundreds people and the FBI has hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to those attacks. Bin Laden is a terrorist and a scumbag and deserved to be punished. I will not shed a tear over his death.

However, the general consensus over the last few days seems to be that we killed the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. Republicans and Dems are talking about the events of September 11th as if the killing of Bin Laden brings some kind of closure. Obama just ventured to ground zero and comforted the families of the 9/11 victims. The media has bombarded us with images of the events of 9/11 after Bin Laden was killed by US navy seals.

That's what I object to.

Everyone thinks that we have hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to the 9/11 attacks, but we don't. The FBI has even admitted this. Bin Laden wasn't even wanted in connection to the 9/11 attacks. Where's the evidence connecting him to the hijackers? Where are the phone calls connecting them? Where is the wire transfer information? Where is the hard evidence that Bin Laden engaged in the planing, financing and execution of the 9/11 attacks? No evidence like that has been presented. The FBI most wanted poster of Bin Laden makes no specific mention of a connection to the 9/11 attacks.

So lets celebrate for getting the guy behind terrorist attacks in Kenya and Tanzania that killed hundreds of people, but let's not celebrate for getting the guy who masterminded the 9/11 attacks. That guy could still be at large.

1. Sorry, but you sound like a Osama apologist.

Some of the hijackers met Bin Laden in Afghanistan while training for their attacks and were hand-picked by him. Bin Laden financed the operations because he was wealthy, while Kaled Sheik Muhammed organized the attacks.
I guess he was just a co-mastermind.
Happy now?

2. I don't doubt your claim

But can you please direct me to a website detailing the fact that the 9/11 hijackers were handpicked and trained by Bin Laden?

Bin Laden was a wealthy man, there's no question about it. His entire family was wealthy. Could you also please direct me to information detailing specifically how Bin Laden financed the 9/11 attacks?

Thanks.

3. Why would you expect those details to be public?

show me the website where all the details of every open criminal investigation are posted?

4. So then.....

Is it safe to say that we can't know for sure if he was involved in the planning, financing and execution of the attacks since those details aren't public?

5. I trust the President and his team of advisers

I don't have to know every detail to know that Obama is an honorable man.
