So were most of the people he caused to be killed over the years.

What about the people bin laden killed that started the war? Ignorance is bliss, isnt it.

ignorance is bliss u say ? u must be very blissful

perhaps you should do some historical research before you make yourself look sillier

bin laden used to be on our team, your tax dollars paid his salary and bought his weapons.

Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden was unarmed when he was killed by US troops on Sunday after resisting capture, the White House has said.

Meanwhile, the CIA has said it did not tell Pakistan about the operation for fear the Pakistanis would leak information and jeopardise the mission.

Pakistan's intelligence agency, the ISI, says it is embarrassed by its failures on Bin Laden.

The Pakistani government denies any prior knowledge of the raid.

Bin Laden, aged 54, was the founder and leader of al-Qaeda. He is believed to have ordered the attacks on New York and Washington on 11 September 2001, as well as a number of other deadly bombings.

Al-Qaeda clues

Mr Carney said Bin Laden's wife "rushed" the first US assaulter who entered the room where they were, and was shot in the leg but not killed. On Monday, White House officials said the woman was killed in the firefight after Bin Laden used her as a human shield.

"We expected a great deal of resistance and were met with a great deal of resistance. There were many other people who were armed in the compound," Mr Carney said.

Bin Laden himself then resisted the troops and was shot dead, but was not armed, he added.

The CIA is already examining material seized in the raid, including computer hard drives, DVDs and other documents.

No decision had yet been taken on whether to release a photograph of Bin Laden's body, Mr Carney said, conceding that the image was "pretty gruesome" and could inflame some sensitivities.

A Time magazine article, billed as Mr Panetta's first interview since Bin Laden was killed, reports that "the CIA ruled out participating with its nominal South Asian ally early on".

It quotes Mr Panetta as saying "it was decided that any effort to work with the Pakistanis could jeopardise the mission. They might alert the targets".

Pakistan received $1.3bn (£786m) in US military and humanitarian aid last year, and provides logistical support for the Nato mission in Afghanistan. However, relations between Islamabad and Washington have been strained by US suspicions that the ISI is covertly backing militants in Afghanistan, and by anger over US drone strikes in Pakistani tribal areas.

Pakistan's foreign ministry has defended the ISI and issued ia lengthy statement in which it expressed "deep concerns and reservations" about the unilateral US action.

Insisting that unilateral action should not become the norm, the ministry stressed that Pakistani intelligence had been sharing information with the US in recent years.

"As far as the target compound is concerned, ISI had been sharing information with CIA and other friendly intelligence agencies since 2009."

Earlier, an ISI official told the BBC's Owen Bennett-Jones in Islamabad that the agency raided the compound in Abbottabad, just 100km (62 miles) from the capital, when it was under construction. It was believed an al-Qaeda operative, Abu Faraj al-Libi, was there.

But since then, "the compound was not on our radar, it is an embarrassment for the ISI", the official said. "We're good, but we're not God."

The compound is just a few hundred metres from the Pakistan Military Academy - the country's equivalent of Sandhurst or West Point.

The US has not commented on anyone it captured or had planned to capture, other than saying it had taken Bin Laden's body.

However, the Pakistani foreign ministry statement said that the rest of Bin Laden's family are now "in safe hands and being looked after in accordance with the law".

Earlier, in ian opinion piece in the Washington Post, President Asif Ali Zardari admitted Bin Laden "was not anywhere we had anticipated he would be".

But he denied the killing suggested Pakistan was failing in its efforts to tackle terrorism.

The USA has murdered many more than Osama could in 1000 lifetimes. But you'll never get a US president to go down on war crimes. I'd personally like to see both Bush and Obama imprisoned for war crimes, but it will never happen.

America gave weapons to afghanistan to protect them from people attacking there country.

The people in the WTC buildings were also unarmed. fuck ben laden.

FYI, they were invited by the Afghan government to help repel ' insurgents ' ....

At first, senators who were involved and authorized to view the supposed pictures of Osama post-mortem confirmed that it was indeed bin Laden and he had been shot in gory confrontation.

Then, the senators changed their stories and either said the photos weren't "authentic" or "official" - and that, despite being privy to the source - either the fact that they're on the Armed Services Committee or Council, or CIA director Panetta - they weren't in a position to determine if they were legitimate photos...

he was in a house, much like we have all across america ..

They were probably showing each other on their iPhones the fake that's been posted everywhere, including here, and said 'yeah we've seen the pics and it was Bin Laden'. Then someone pointed out to them that they were looking at a fake pic, not the official one, so they had to correct themselves.

Which if nothing else proves they're not competent to decide for everyone else whether a pic is genuine or not. And despite not being competent, and not having seen the real images (if any exist) themselves, some still believe they should not be released.

osama bin ladens family as well as him are very wealthy from construction.

If you are just a hippy tree hugger that thinks no matter what people do, you should not go to war. I can see where your line of thinking comes from, but this is war.

How come they didnt shoot Saddam when they found him?

The people in the WTC buildings were also unarmed. fuck ben laden.

so the solution to bad guys doing evil things is to do worse bad and evil things ?

imagine if we taught things in life this way .. you shit the bed so your dad shits a bigger shit in your bed. you drink and drive and kill someones kid so they have the judge get drunk and run over all your kids with a bulldozer.

I concur

So you're saying that the the USA response to 9-11 should have been what exactly?

Or maybe the United States government should have apologized to Bin Laden for making him angry?
You sure have a strange way of looking at things.

well for starters attacking a country where at least one of the 9/11 terrorists lived might have helped..

How come they didnt shoot Saddam when they found him?

Taking out the individuals who planned and/or ordered the 9-11 attacks was clearly not only appropriate, but essential.

What has made america strong in the past is showing others we are better than that not that we will stoop to the same level.

How come they didnt shoot Saddam when they found him?

and folks like you cry like something truly horrible occurred.

What's wrong with this picture?

Earlier this week a commando team, engaging in a new war, took out one solitary mass murderer
