Why giving him this last final triumph and make him the on and on star of the media for months to come?

No, it is better the way it was done: go in, kill him, get rid of the body at sea, job done, game over, file closed, be back in time for early breakfast, period.

If he is really dea, the b etter it is. Dog doesn't balk and bite again - nice for all and everybody. Now hunt and slay the other dogs of the pack. That would be time better spent than endlessly discussing how to deal with Bin Laden at court.

How to deal with him legally? Simple: charge him in NY federal court with 3,000 counts of Felony murder plus 17,400 counts of attempted murder or instigation there of. Following that trial extradite him to Virgina for 200 counts of Felony murder, then to PA for 40 counts.

Following the Trial ship him to ADX Florence where all the other convicted Islamic terrorists are stored.

Everyone who lost someone on 9/11 deserves to see OBL face justice by the system he sought to destroy.

A dead OBL just gives the Arab Street more conspiracy theories.
