Really - I don’t give a tin shit how he got it - just that he got it. He could’ve been armed, unarmed, with or without a squirt gun. I just don’t care. He got what he deserved...and I don’t give a flyin’ f*** if his family was wasted either. Waste ‘em all is what I say.
“Waste em all is what I say.”
Maybe it would have been better to blow the whole building to hell. Then dig his DNA out of the rubble. Then there would be no one left alive to bitch.
EXCUSE ME. This is a WAR! We firebombed most of Tokyo and killed thousands of civilians and no one said — “Look! They only had squirt guns. OOO. Lets give the dead a Shinto funeral to show them how enlightened we are. “
We would have lost WWII with this AH in charge!
This is DANGEROUS for our survival people.
Our cities could be nuked by Al Qadea unless we wipe them out.
Feelings should not have a place in such an operation. OBL should have been captured alive - if practical, which it was in this case - and then interrogated until he had nothing else to say. Then you can put him on trial (in the same room) and within 10 minutes convict him. No appeal.
Compared to that, simply executing him seems to be (a) too kind and (b) a waste of intelligence. Don't we want to know his entire chain of command, for example, that moved one notch up by now? If his computer had encryption or steganography, wouldn't we want his passwords?
