Good news.
Interesting tidbits:
Was not a drone or missile attack or an aircraft strike.
It was special forces on the ground.
(Whoops. Obama just started his address.)
No civilian casualties.
No American casualties.
Killed Bin Ladin.
Took custody of his body. (That's important, because the last thing we wanted was for his death site (if by bomb) or burial site to be turned into a shrine. Earlier, before the address, I heard that the body "would be disposed of". Good. Bastard deserves no funeral. He was a less than a dog and doesn't deserve to be treated with even the dignity of a dogs death.)
I find the "we are not at war with Islam" comments in the address needless. But fine, Bush said the same things. Whatever.
"Justice has been done."
This will probably be the only time I will ever agree with anything that man says. Damn straight.
Ok - I would love to know details of the operation. (If possible, I'd love to know who made the actual kill-shot. That man should never ever have to buy his own drinks anywhere in the western world for the rest of his life.) But realistically I know many details, if not most, will have to remain classified for some time. But it'll be a hell of a story when finally told.
Oh and today is my birthday. Best damn birthday present I've had for many years.
