Well, i believe that didn't HAVE to kill him... He could've been given a life in a military prison, or given an ejection, or any state/countries death penalties. If what i heard was true, they killed Ghadi's son, and Osama and the other's there held a innocent women as a shield. I also heard that Osama HIMSELF fought. Im not sure about how many troops were sent there but i heard 5 ( seem's unlikely) And that they had the area where he was staying under surveillance for months but never had proof he was there.

No-
Osama died in a gun fight. The opperation took 40 mintues. 20 minutes of shooting back and forth. Osama was firing back at the troops. You think that Osama and his crew would just get on thier knees and let them handcuff them? You have to be kidding me. Osama died the way he should of- a shot to the head. Maybe it would of been more of a clousre for the USA citizens if he was hung. But at least he knew he was going to die. The only thing I don't like about this is Obama acting like he was in charge of all this. If it wasn't for Bush and other officals this would of never would of happened. He is acting like he walked into a compound and found Bin Laden and killed him with nothing but a butter knife.

A US official said Osama didnt fight back. he had no gun and didn't at the time of his death

I heard his body was thrown to teh ocean, is this fact or myth?

That is fact for 2 reasons

1. No one wanted to worry about him having a Burial then Terrorist would go up to and get inspired to strike back and then do so

2. It's disrespectful to bury them 24 hours after they where killed according to his religion so they didn't want to offend more of them and cause for once agn another retaliation

and It was a team of 6 SEALs they always go in small teams and only 3 people where killed and ye he did use his wife a meat shield but from what im reading she survived

also @maxattack I agree that didn't have to but they where ordered to retrieve his body died they didn't want him alive at all and ye he wasn't armed

but yes I agree with most of you on how Obama shouldn't take credit at all

I just edited in the links cause I was checkin my Email and noticed em some of you might fine it interesting I know I do, specially the Navy SEALs stuff

If you were to take him to trial, where would it be anyway?

there would be no trial just the bullet in his head he dosent deserve a trial that y he didnt get 1

I think is he was alvie he'd be on our screens laughing at Obama.

That said, given his serious illness back in 01, I think him surviving until 11 would be a miracle. Methinks that the USA's announcement that they killed him really means they found his body and confirmed he's dead/ Methinks he's been dead for a long time.
