Conjecture Part 1: Several Reasons why the Military and Obama Chose its date for the Assassination of Osama Bin Laden
By Kevin Stoda
Here are some of my first thoughts as to why bin Laden was killed on May 1, 2011XUSA time.
(1) Symbolically speaking, the assassination was originally intended for April 30, 2011XUSA time--, i.e. when
a-- NATO forces bombed Col. Muammar Gaddafis compound on Saturday[April 30, 2011], killing his 29-year-old son Saif al-Arab and three of his grandchildren, all of whom were under the age of 12. Gaddafi was reportedly inside the compound at the time of the attack. Killing of Bin Laden on that date would have provided a good cover to killing kids under 12 years of age.

b--Jesus Christ was purportedly killed on that date [April 30, 0030]. Perhaps Jesus, Hitler, and Obama should not die on the same dayXhence, Obama had hesitated a full 16 hours before giving the go-ahead on the assassination of Osama.

c--Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide on that date [April 30, 1945] . Perhaps Osam is ranked up their with Hitler in the military history books.

d--U.S. troops invaded Cambodia to disrupt North Vietnamese Army base areas. The announcement by U.S. President Nixon led to widespread protests[ April 30, 1970] . Perhaps the USA is now permanently invading PakistanXis that the symbolism?

e--The USA pulled out its forces and Saigon fell effectively ending the USA twenty-year occupation and war in Vietnam . Are we in for another 9-10 more years of quagmire in Afghanistan, America?

fX On the balcony of Federal Hall on Wall Street in New York City, George Washington K[took] the oath of office to become the first elected President of the United States [April 30, 1789]. Perhaps April 30, 2011 would have proven to be a rebirth of the Obama presidency.

gXThe Islamic Republic of Iran designated April 30 as the "national day of Persian Gulf", since the date coincides with the anniversary of Shah Abbas' successful military campaign against the Portuguese navy in the Persian Gulf, driving the Portuguese colonial forces out of the Strait of Hormuz in the Capture of Ormuz (1622). Perhaps there is a subtle and symbolic threat to Iran in all this.

hXIn Amsterdam, April 30 is the annual celebration of the queens birthday. Perhaps, Obama wanted to symbolically hand over Osamas head on this occasion.
