Michael Moore: Bin Laden wasn't killed, he was executed

Osama bin Laden wasn't killed by a Navy SEAL team, he was straight up executed, Michael Moore told TheWrap on Wednesday.

The "Fahrenheit 9/11" director has been setting Twitter aflame Wednesday afternoon urging the Obama administration to come clean about the circumstances surrounding the terrorist leader's death -- particularly in light of the White House's shifting account of last weekend's firefight in Abbottabad.

The Oscar-winning director has been tweeting about his belief that Bin Laden should have received a trial, and his theory that Pakistan was keeping the Al Qaeda head under house arrest.

Moore’s old news he hasn’t done anything relevant in over a decade.

Michael Moore might be one notch less of a threat to this country than OBL.

“It probably would have be useful to take him alive for waterboarding. I’m sure there’s all kinds of useful information we could have gotten out of him. Unfortunately, by simply executing him, we missed that opportunity.”

You may be right, you may be wrong.

I am not qualifid to say either way.

We should get plenty of intel from the computer hardware captured.

As a New Yorker who lived thru 9/11, I am glad he is dead.

Best,
M

He was not executed, he died from lead poisoning.

Michael Moore has held forth on Piers Morgan tonight. The man has little if no imagination. Ok, so they capture Osama Bin Laden. First a show trial. He is not going to go free. He would suffer confinement in the same way that some Serbian leader suffered in the International Court (So called). Next. either a life sentence. or being put to death. Months awaiting his fate.

Consider the end of Saddam Hussein. Not that I have shed any tears about him. It was one hell of a rough ride. Ok, Mr Humanitarian extraordinaire Michael Moore, figure this out. One hour before. the man is at whatever peace he may think he has. How long did it take? This we still do not know.

What we do know is that within a hour, it is all over. It was the most humane way to go about it.

What would today’s liberals have thought about the public jubilation on VE Day and VJ Day???? Sheesh.......

I've heard this same argument other places and I have to disagree. I don't think the jubilation on VE Day or VJ Day was about dead Japanese, Germans or whoever. It was a celebration of the end of a horrible war and the fact that all those men would be coming home. World War II had a profound effect on the every day life of Americans at home.

Mr. Moore has never been deterred from allowing his mouth to display his intelligence.
