Here is some FYI, pertaining to a recurring question in this thread.

(Reuters) - The U.S. special forces team that hunted down Osama bin Laden was under orders to kill the al Qaeda mastermind, not capture him, a U.S. national security official told Reuters.

"This was a kill operation," the official said, making clear there was no desire to try to capture bin Laden alive in Pakistan. (Reporting by Mark Hosenball, writing by Matt Spetalnick)

Exactly like Pablo Escobar in '93.

The truth of the matter is that Bin Laden will never die. Whether he was killed yesterday or died of kidney failure in 1994. People can speculate all they want as to the validity of the case, but it's a waste of time. We've all got better things to do.
Word has it he's already drinking Pisco sours in the jungles of Peru along with Jim Morrison and Deneb.

Brennan: "OBL given appropriate Islamic burial." :lol:

Brennan: "160 Easter Bunnies and flying squirrels with cannons hiding in every government building!"
