A lot of people were celebrating when President Obama announced that Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden. You might have even been one of those people. But would you play a video game based on the actual assault?

In a new, free-to-download game called The Death of Osama bin Laden, players take on the role of either U.S. Navy SEALs or one of the men guarding bin Laden. It's set in a recreation of bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

If you play as a SEAL, your goal is to find Osama, kill him, and find intel in the compound necessary to take down the entire al Qaeda operation. If you play as a body guard, your only goal is to protect bin Laden.

Would you play, or is it all in bad taste?

You can watch video of the game play below:

How disrespectful can you get? I don't care what he's done, he's a human being and we shouldn't treat him as anything less than that. Relief that he's dead is one thing, but rejoicing in it is both distasteful and disrespectful.

Why are you worried about disrespecting a man who wanted you dead?

reply
Sydnie to shadow76 2011/05/12 13:01:51

Because I realize that, yes, what he did was wrong, but he's still a human being. We're being classless and disrespectful. Why not, I don't know, be the better people? Stand strong in the face of adversity? We're no better than them if we disrespect him, if we're joyous that he's dead. If we make a mockery of him. We're no better.

he got killed, there's not much worse than that. call of duty was the worst in terms of taste. not that long after the terrorist attack in mumbai. was unnecessary, at the time, but did imply a bit of truth: that the US has role on both sides of the fence of terrorism. one of the terrorists is a CIA agent. most americans don't want to believe that we would fund or be involved in terrorist attacks around the world or think that we didn't want the act to be carried out, but in reality we make money off of terror and war. after mumbai guess which country india turned to for security. they hired our private corps. looks like they make billions. the US uses pakistani pawns in conjunction with pakistan to develop soldiers or terrorists knowing who they are and dictate whether or not they succeed in their goal, based on money.
