that having Bin Laden spend the next forty years getting rammed from behind by some dude named Bubba is preferable to letting him just die quickly in a military assault.


Gee, that sounds easy, throw 'em in a jail cell and let them rot. Do you have any suggestions on how to apprehend the hundreds of them in dozens of countries without pissing anyone off and doing something dramatic?

If we go in there and bomb everything and everyone, it will make Bin Laden a martyr and perhaps escalate the situation into something even worse...maybe nuclear? Remember...these people are a fighting a holy war and dying for their cause is something they look forward to. Believe me, I would like an eye for an eye, but these people are desperate as it is...making them more desperate or making them avenge the death of their leader will only make them retaliate. Throw em in a jail cell and let them rot.
