Makes for a good story.
If I were the leader of the free world, I’d have tried to capture him alive and attested to that for the world. If we weren’t able to do that, I would have provided definitive proof of his demise.
This leader gives us neither. Perhaps I haven’t thought it through. Good thing I’m not in charge.
I would have cut off his head & put it atop the Empire State Bldg. Give them a taste of their own medicine.
