Well, that is the critical determination, as far as I’m concerned. If there was a reasonable conclusion that he was a danger to the SEAL Team, I have no problem with them killing him. If not, I do.
What I don’t have a lot of patience with is the attitude that it doesn’t matter, that OBL should have been killed on sight whether or not he presented a threat. It bothers me that so many people endorse our government having that kind of power.
The question for you is what exactly would you consider a non-threat from this master murderer....He was No. #1 on the Most wanted list. He was the main objective of the military..dead or alive..for years now. What is it that you are not getting?
Reasonable conclusion in a war zone? Under fire? With the full knowledge Pakistanie military and police would soon be in hot prusuit.... It’s called a para-military “mission” for a reason.
