Why legitimize him by treating him as a leader of a country?....He was the leader of a bunch of murderous thugs. A bunch of flat out crazy zealots who play by no rules whatsoever........Legitimizing that criminal piece of shit is laughable.......They did exactly what they should have, and were no doubt fully authorized to do. Shoot him dead on site, pack his sorry illigitimate ass up, and get the hell out of there so we can turn his corpse into fucking crab bait.I have to say this, and I will - secure that it is buried in a huge, Mega-Thread so nobody will ever notice it . . .
I thought we didn't take out individuals. We capture them, we try them, we execute or imprison them - but we do not just send our troops on a surgical mission to kill them.
When Saddam crawled out of his hole in the ground, no one shot him. Hitler died by his own hand. As I understand it, one of the main reasons we don't take out foreign bad guys we don't like, is that we don't want them doing the same thing to our leaders.
So what's with the killing of Bin Laden? It doesn't look to me like those boys were going in there to capture him. Looks to me like they went in to do exactly what they did. It is CLAIMED he refused to surrender. It is CLAIMED he fought back. Maybe. Maybe not. Our government has been know to shade the truth a bit when it serves its own interests to do so.
I am glad the monster is dead. But I question the way in which that was brought about.
OK - let the flaming begin . . . .
I agree completely.
I really don't care what his supposed status was; head of state or not, if you can whack an enemy, whack him! Would any of the leftie whiners here be upset if we had assassinated Adolph Hitler? I didn't think so. I really don't give a rat's rear end what the U.N or the rest of the world thinks. To hell with them. We do what we need to, when we need to, how we need to. That's what the one hyper-power on the planet can do; about time we made a few examples.
