Actually this is change I can believe in. Any time we get a biggie in AQ, it is CHange FOR THE BETTER IN MY BOOK. Does anyone on here know if we sometimes use laser targeting for Tomahawks? The original story I saw said it was laser guided, which infers we had special ops nearby guiding the bird home to its target.

It seems they must have been very sure it was him or they probably would have used a predator and hellfire. A tomahawk is many multiples more destructive. At $500k a piece, it was a good investment I think.

Less than it would've cost if he'd been captured and tried in a court with lawyers and the whole get up.
