When you want to kill a snake, you don't capture its head. You cut it the fuck off. Done.

Killing him will not affect Al Queda as from the sounds of it he was no longer running things. Thats rather illelivent.
But yes, a trial would be a pain.
One must remeber its not only the USA the attacts happened but many countries including the UK.
And I suspect if he had lived every country would insist on having him. Plus he is rich so could afford the best legal aid. And as time goes on he becomes a hero.
So as I say, the presedent did what he had to for politcal reasons. its not me having a go at the usa. I am a big suporter of the president.
it will be interesting what footage they release.
in truth i wonder why they did not say he had a gun in his hand. no one could have proved otherwise. it seems odd they admited he was unarmed.
but this operation will have been planed for months. they may have even bigged the place. those guys (i think it was the green barade) would have had it so perfect they could have operated blind folded.
