You onl yhave headlines from papers saying "our glorious and honest authorities have ruled/said/claimed that..."

Believing that is naivety.

Your country could not have had any interest in making a years-long law-show with Bin Laden. Just look how hilarious it has become with all the implications around Guantanamo. There also was a strong message to be sent to the bad boys in the world: another reason to assume there never was the inention to get Bin Laden alive, but to hit him. Then, a member of the specail forces participating in the raid released a book some months ago in which he revealed what he claims is his knowledge of the operation: he said: there never was the intention to catch him, but to kill him.

Stop to blindly trust so submissively in your leaders just because they claim something for the cameras and are higher in the hierarchy than you are. America is not any less a misinformed and manipulated place and people, like Germany or Europe. You are being manipulated and lied to the same like we are. A president is no saint. He is the highest rankling manipulator in charge. Paper is patient, ink does never complain. Check for where the interests of actors lead you - that means so much more than what they claim in the media what they want. Have you still nothing learned from Vietnam Watergate, Bush and Iraq, and the many more less popular revelations about how the game is run? Lie and know you are being lied to, betray and know that you get betrayed - that is the real name of the political game.
