solitare: I had a good laugh ; sarcastic or not; disrespectful of the vast majority of Muslims or not; however that English buffoon is wrong about about Islam as a whole, which number in the millions of people, don't forget, is at war with the West. If ALL Muslims were indeed at war with the West, we couldn't leave our homes. They outnumber us and under a state of all out Holy War, acceded to by all their religious leaders, we simply would be over run , be slaughtered everywhere we are ...get real and curtail this BS about 'Islam being at war with the West and/or the 'Wild West' of the US.


thank you for trying to project some rationalities and sanities into this otherwise 'distasteful' discussion, solitarecheers thumbs up

Yes, well, all very inspiring (I usually find this guy's commentary fairly intelligent), except -

1) Bin Laden was basically a CIA asset - his organization aided and abetted by the USG (and perhaps even created by it?);

2) Bin Laden was not wanted by American authorities for 9/11 (the FBI stated that they had no solid evidence to indict him);

3) He denied - TWICE - any involvement in 9/11, though later videotapes and communiques of dubious provenance contradicted that;

4) We really don't know what happened in the SEAL mission because, conveniently, the USG has made no videorecordings or photos available, and disposed of his body post-haste.

Questions about mercy and the philosophy of justice may be interesting as a hypothetical philosophic exercise, but are largely beside the point until we know the truth - which the USG clearly is not telling us.

If this operation was about "fighting terror," then obviously bin Laden should've been captured alive (which he very easily could've been - SEAL teams are more than capable of accomplishing that). The information he could've provided would be priceless.

The fact that he was (allegedly) killed in this operation demonstrates not some boldly "anti-PC" stroke of justice, but rather an extreme concern about what Bin Laden would say in any open-court testimony.
