I really wouldn't ban it... if this is what Toronto media has to say for this... it's a reaction. I for one have been looking for other reactions to this... that's my drive right now.

For those who'd like an uncensored image, it's on the on-line site of the Toronto Sun:

I don't know how long it will still be there, though! And I must say, my sentiments toward those responsible, who could take lives so callously, could not be summed up more perfectly.

Kudos to the Toronto-Sun for printing what we all thought.

It is good to see alot of altruism and support considering we have always done the same for other nations.

Is this paper a tabloid? Like NY Post and numerous London papers? I looked at their cover today and it was Laden's Hell. Hmmmm...

The Toronto Sun, the paper that printed that, is one of two major papers in Toronto.
It is similar to the NY Times...

So it's a credible paper? Surprising headlines then...

yea but it is not suprising because these people ARE stupid damn bastards. i hope bin ladin dies. i want to rip his jaw off and shove it down his throat and shoot him in the leg and bust his eyes and impale him with a pole and rip out his intestines and decapitate him and cut him up into little peices and gring him into hamburger meat and feed it to cows and take the **** and incinerate it and then nuke the ashes and burn them some more then destroy his soul and throw his ahes into the sun and watch him burn!

We dont actually know it was bin Laden. Not that im trying to stick up for him, but it could be anyone. But i can just see whats going to happen to whoever did such a thing. And then those damn palistinians that were hugging each other and giving out candy and burning american flags. That is the worst thing i ever saw.

You know, being in college, I hear all sorts of different views on this whole situation and I am viewing it differently than when I first heard about it. At first I was very mad that the Palestinians were celebrating in the streets, but we have to think one thing: was that footage shot after the attacks on the towers? We don't know. The media makes think that they were celebrating the terrorism strike, but we really do not know when that footage was taken. It could very well be file footage shot after they won a battle against Iran or something. We have to think about all the other factors before we start to point fingers and judge these people. They could have also been celebrating our misfortune, but we don't know for sure.

Arafat might be on our side, or he might just be being nice. I don't think there would be a country stupid enough to be laughing in our faces at this horrible tragedy because they know we would retaliate. Tons of countries offered their condolences because they don't want us to think they might have done it if they laughed at us or something.
