Seeing that the original plan was to drop nearly a dozen GBU-31 on him... aka these...



...probably killing anyone within 200-400 meters of the compound in the process, I think the fact that he was armed or not when he was shot is rather fucking moot, no?

I presume one must be Norwegian to see the humor.

Best/most hopeful thing ive seen on the news so far was a New York woman who said - "Im never happy when another person dies - im not going to lie i dont feel bad about it - but im not celebrating his death either - and he was my brothers killer" But yeah, from my vantage point some of the celebrations look exaclty fundamentalists in the middle east - and i guess they are they are the same except they be fundamentalists in the west. meh fkn religon.

Except we didn't kill Osama and then publicly drag his corpse around through the streets whilst praising god that he's dead. I agree that there shouldn't be a huge celebration over somebody's death, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't glad he's dead. The world is a better place without him in it.

You're making an incredibly broad generalization about the public school system in America. There are tons of very good public schools. The vast majority of undergrads at top colleges in the US graduated from public schools.

There are many barbaric examples of what you're talking about, but the dragging of the corpses through the streets, the display on the bridge that you keep talking about - these are things that happened in Fallujah, where Blackwater contractors got their shit pushed in because they were firing on unarmed civilians.

It was not a good situation, but not so seemingly black and white.

Right, but as you said, that is most certainly not the only example of atrocities committed by terrorists on American soldiers/civilians. Does anybody remember the very public video of Daniel Pearl being beheaded by his captors? I don't know how anyone could possibly feel any remorse for the way that this operation was carried out. Do you think that if al-Qaeda somehow managed to assassinate Obama, that they'd clean his body and give him a proper burial, whether it be at sea or otherwise?

I think the numbers speak for themselves regarding the staggering amount of money we spend on public education and the shitty return on that investment. Look at graduation rates and standardized test scores by state, and look at our performance vs. other countries. But boy do our students have great self esteem numbers! Of course we have good schools and teachers. But we have a LOT of garbage too, and it's systemic.
