This wasn't just any man, this was the architect of 9/11. He pulled the
metaphysical trigger that killed thousands, toppled two skyscrapers, left a
gaping hole in the side of the Pentagon, and intended to demolish the White
House itself. Furthermore, he drove a psychic dagger into the heart of
America and then taunted us when we couldn't find him. It would be different
if we stormed and shot an unarmed Martin Luther King, Jr., but we didn't. We
killed bin Laden. If you want to substitute Hitler to assuage your doubt,
I'm ok with that.

The truth is now coming out. I'm not convinced they said those things to
justify the action.

I'd release the photo. I understand giving the body a 'proper' burial.

I understand not gloating over the death of a fellow human. I won't shed any
tears over justice being done to a mass murderer who was bent on inciting
Islam to ongoing terror against America and Americans.
