It sounds like a no win scenario, but it's not. They know we got him, they also know that his own people gave us the info that led to him. They also know that we will go anywhere, anytime to get them and there is no 'Put your hands up, you're under arrest' mentality when it comes to people like themselves.
If anything, they are scared. They will look at each other now and wonder if anyone can be trusted.

I appreciate what your saying and i think you have misread or misunderstood my post as i wasnt condemning the swoop which resulted in his death. it was spot on
There will be a new offensive against america, no doubt about that, the actions today just help start a new generation of terrorists.
I dont think osama was in command anymore, a ageing man in a bunker with no comms who relied on a paperboy who probably gave him up in the end.
Al-Qaeda is an idea, not a structured organisation so in operational terms I doubt his death will have much of an effect
