Sounds like we're pretty darn close, but not quite close enough.

Though I also believe bin Laden is dead and has been for quite some time.

At least in the first paragraph of the story they are called terrorists.

The government knows it was an effective strike. They will slowly acknowledge that.

Too bad this story didn't come out an hour early after the MSM ran with how bad it was we killed civilians.

The media is a disgrace.
