The chances are there may well have been an order to kill rather than capture and then have to put up with the ensuing legal circus on the world stage but I doubt we'll ever find out the truth.

The fact remains, Bin Laden is gone for good and with him gone there is a lot of justice and closure for those he was instrumental in killing....good riddance to bad rubbish!!

Oh and I should believe you Skybird? What makes you an authority?

You should not believe anything, anyone. You should consider to add 1 and 1 together yourself instead of just taking the calculation result of somebody else for granted.

Especially if that somebody can only count from now to the next election.

Well I have added 1 and 1 together, with my superior knowledge of both my country and it's military and the result I get is that you are talking out of your 4th point of contact.

You will repeat history, since you refuse to learn from it.

Repeat bin Ladens death? Unlikely.
