Dutch men attempt to file police complaint over Bin Laden’s death
Dutch men attempt to file police complaint over Bin Laden’s death

TILBURG, NETHERLANDS (BNO NEWS) -- Two Dutch men on Tuesday morning attempted to file a police complaint against the United States for carrying out a secret mission inside Pakistan that led to the death of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, local media reported.

The Brabants Dagblad newspaper reported that the two men, 30-year-old Ruud Snoeren and 29-year-old Terry Flohr, went to a police station in the southern city of Tilburg in an attempt to file a police complaint.

According to the newspaper, the men were frustrated by the celebrations and congratulations from around the world after Bin Laden's death was made public. "We are really angry," Snoeren, who is a jurist, said.

"There is a suspect of a murder, who has confessed on television and who has the evidence in his hands but dumped it in the sea. And the whole world applauds it," Snoeren told the newspaper, referring to the fact that Bin Laden's body was buried at sea.

2. Not understanding this part:
"There is a suspect of a murder, who has confessed on television and who has the evidence in his hands but dumped it in the sea"

4. NOT the public opinion
I'm from the Netherlands.
I want to make clear that these two mentally challenged men DO NOT REPRESENT THE PUBLIC OPINION OF THE DUTCH PEOPLE!
The website of Holland's biggest newspaper De Telegraaf also posted this article.
Within a few hours there were hunderds of reactions stating that the two men are totally out of line and should be locked up in a mental institution or worse.
These idiots only want their 15 minutes of fame and should be ignored.
The majority of the Dutch people, including myself deem Bin Laden's death righteous if not even a lesser punishment then he should have received.
Peeling of his skin inch by inch would've probably been a more satisfying punishment...
