Given that assassination is defined as "murdering someone especially a public figure, usually for hire or for political reasons." How does this apply to Osama Bin Laden?

What are the chances of the Seals finding of the Bush and OLB business deals of the past and forecoming years in the OLB's data base? The Democrats had no choice but to kill OLB and his secret terror plots along the Bush/Cheney deals. Oil for blood and money seems non-fictional to me.

In that incident members of the Pakistani military were informed. To make this operation legal only the Pakistani President and perhaps his inner circle needed to know about it.
That was his point, and the Pakistani's notified the subject and he fled.

Does not the above seem to contradict

So they killed him to "shut him up" but took away all sorts of computers and documents. If the the sort of information you seemingly believe is contained on those computers is in fact, how long do you believe that could be kept a secret? :confused:

And the Phoenix Program was not meant to do that? How about the attempted "decapitation" strikes against Saddam and Gadaffi?
Not assassination.

No more than it would have been had some sort of special opperations team gotten" Hitler.

Might have been nice to let the Pakistani president know what was going on then, and got his consent. That would have made it both legal and moral.
How do you know the US didn't discretely tip off Pakistan in some way? Don't be bitchy: I'm sure they meant to get your consent before going ahead but maybe it got lost in the mail...

Who cares anyway [other than someone who will argue any tiny detail to bump their post total]?

Just enjoy the nice glow of a job well done and the warming thoughts of the terror and fear in his mind before they blew his head up.

the president there was being paid off by bin laden so telling him would have been giving bin laden advanced warning and a chance to flee and evade capture and punishment for his crimes once again. as for being moral, who gives a fuck he wasn't being moral when he told his guys to hijack planes and he was being even less moral when the marines busted in on him and he grabbed his wife as a human shield. morality has nothing to do with this, the guy got off easy for the things he did.

I think that most of what was reported has happened. But I am not so sure that he is not in a special room in a secret place, injected full of truth drugs, singing like a canary. But he will be dead when they are finished with him, and then we may see photos.

No - he was not assassinated, but I would rather say because he did NOT SURRENDER as opposed to him resisting.


(As one commentator on CNN said, unless perhaps they found him naked, he was an target to shoot at).
