So Usama is worth more to US intelligence dead than alive? They should have captured him if possible, and kept their mouths shut about it. PERIOD......

Killing him may have been the best play, but disclosing that fact may not have been. Why not sow confusion for awhile? Our brave men in uniform deserve nothing but praise, but the way this was handled reeks of the political.

I think the Bible would require that back 7 generations just tomake sure, but no doubt you get the idea.

I suspect that was the plan until they had a chopper go down. Then there was no way to deny we had him.
