Obama will probably hand these SEALs over to the ICC (International Criminal Court).

I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan. And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action, and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice.

Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care to avoid civilian casualties. After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body.

In his zeal to claim credit, he did not leave himself much wiggle room. If anyone goes to ICC, it will not be the SEALs. It will be Obama, the man who ordered the operation. If a car hits a pedestrian, you don't sue the car.

He may try to say that he didn't want Osama killed however, from his words it is clear that he is happy about it.

The death of bin Laden marks the most significant achievement to date in our nation’s effort to defeat al Qaeda.

The SEAL team did not cross the boarder and do the operation on their own. They were doing their military duty as ordered by Obama. Although, I wouldn't put it past him to try, but his own words damn him.

I would love to be at a Code Pink meeting this month. Just to watch their heads explode. They want so badly to 'protest' something, but they cannot ever protest their own Messiah. LOL
