It is the military that gets the job done.
This post is an example of how little you know. Until the military gets their orders from the commander in chief they do nothing. The decision to assault the compound and kill by the navy seals was made by Obama. President Obama choice of a new CIA director was a major move in USA intelligence. This is what got the job done.

You have no references to support your opinions. That is OK.

Quote:
Bush said, “This momentous achievement marks a victory for America, for people who seek peace around the world, and for all those who lost loved ones on September 11, 2001.”

He also said the U.S. “has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done.”
So light. Do Navy Seals work for the CIA?

The difference between these two, Obama put someone in the CIA who got it done. President Obama gave a one word order "KILL" unlike the "dead or alive" order from Bush.
Well Light. You are sure a leftists media luver.

After several run-throughs and the diplomatic blessing of the Pakistani government, a small special forces team of U.S. Navy Seals landed in the compound grounds yesterday with the explicit instruction - get Osama bin Laden, dead or alive.

his site shows pictures of the compound. It sure looks interesting they had him covered last August. It took this long to verify the tips.

No no no. Obama said "yes let's do it"...that was his role. He did not FIND Osama. He did not KILL Osama. What happened was is we had the opportunity, we got the intel, it was inside Pakistan and so they made sure the CC knew about it and signed off on it. Remember we could have had him before 9/11 if Bill Clinton did not fumble the ball.

The credit SHOULD go to our CIA and Military.

Second, They did not get an order "Kill"...read the news. They tried to get him to surrender and a firefight ensued instead. Osama did not want to be captured and went down fighting

The reason we want these guys alive is the intel they can provide

Soo. Osama may have preferred death because his insider reports told him they are still waterboarding? Wasn't waterboarding a sin under the Bush administration?

Now it is mere enhanced interviewing methods.

Re: BREAKING NEWS: Osama Bin Laden is dead!

ABC News' Jonathan Karl (@jonkarl) reports: Now that bin Laden has been killed and his body has been positively identified, what is to be done with his remains?

U.S. officials tell me the last thing they want is for his burial place to become a terrorist shrine.

To avoid that, an informed source tells me, the intention is the bury his body at sea -- leaving no definitive location for the final resting place of his body.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The White House counterterrorism adviser says that the U.S. forces who killed Osama bin Laden would have taken him alive if they had the opportunity. Adviser John Brennan said that the White House thought bin Laden would resist but that there was a "remote" possibility he could be captured alive. Brennan told reporters at the White House Monday that the contingency was prepared for.

Nice catch, coadie. Some people don't really read articles or newspapers for info--instead, they watch MSNBC and believe everything that's reported by those crazies--without fact checking. That's as bad as the conservatives who take Fox News as law and gospel.
