How Obama could turn this is into a disaster is beyond me.

“The killing of 3000 peope when they were unarmed has raised concerns al Qaeda may have gone too far in acting as policeman, judge and executioner of the United States”.

Helmut Schmidt comes out as enemy. Seems to me it would be perfectly acceptable to give him the same treatment.

Amazing how these mad-dog killers have such a fan base among former European leaders. Must be something in the water.

Obama is a COWBOY! Who knew? Maybe his Mom showed him old John Wayne movies on TV.

Can’t tell you how upset I am at the thought an unarmed Osama Ben Laden was executed...

Perhaps that’s because concern for this reality doesn’t upset me at all.

Okay, perhaps I am a little upset. Starting at the toes and removing 1/8 inch of bodily tissue at a time until they reached his neck would have been my preference.

Just sayin’...

Screw the whiners. OBL deserved much worse than a bullet to the head. He got off easy...

Dilemma for the WH. It’s difficult to sanitize a snuff film

That’s the problem, we’ve sanitized everything about 9/11 and the war on terror. We’ve made the military a politically correct organization.

War is graphic, ghoulish and gruesome.

Eric Holder saddened that he couldn’t publicly throw the high profile trial of Bin Laden.

These types of complaints will fizzle out.

If a Republican had been in office when this happened, the Left would have pulled out all the stops to try to demonize him and our military.

They have way too much invested in Obammy to try a similar stunt against him though.

Gitmo was essential to this operation; and Obama and all his entourage wanted to close Gitmo. OBL lived by sword-wielding and AK-47 wielding; they had to assume he was armed. He evidently resisted, and died by the sword. Surprised he didn’t keep an AK-47 under his bed for just such a time as this.

I’m not concerned. I’m elated.

You are correct. The left would be screaming for War Crimes trials.

If I was a SEAL, I would be concerned that he might have a bomb vest on, and wanted me to get close so he could take just one more infidel with him. I would have blown him away at a distance too.

It was Osama bin Laden.

The POS who led the project of crashing planes into our buildings and killing 3,000 innocent people.

And then gloated about it.

I don't care if he was unarmed, making love to a goat, or peeing up a rope.

He needed to be dead.

Some missions and the details should never come out.

Let’s face it. Announcing the death of OBL turns him into a martyr for the cause. No matter what. It does...OBL is a martyr, telling the world he was unarmed, killed in front of his daughter, etc. Instant martyrdom with or without a body.

We went years thinking he was killed in some bombed cave in the mountains.

Operation should have remained secret...completely secret.

Let the Pakistani press ponder who or what was in that compound...
