But my friend, the world is not an ideal place. Here, you should not fuck with someone who have more money and power than you do.
The one with power, makes the rules.
So, chill. He did what he could, and US did what it could.

The greatest thing about the USA is that the people who founded it had no idea it would become the world's greatest power, which it has only done in the last 70 years.
The worst thing is the USA and too many Americans seem to have a special mentality that violence, agression and killing is the best response to any problem.
The latter doesn't seem to be the case in other democracies, but they are all too weak to 'police' the world. Only Russia and China are powerful enough to become dominant, and neither of those countries has the checks and balances, legally and constitutionally, that the USA has (thanks to the founding fathers).
For all its faults, if there has to be an 'alpha' country in the world, the USA is by far the best alternative.
What the USA did to Osama (if you believe it) is nothing, and quite deserved if he was responsible for the WTC attacks, compared to the unforgivable and rogue way it (or Bush and his cronies) behaved after 9/11.
