Here is where I severely disagreee, "justice" was *not* served, in fact an assasination of an unarmed non combattant commited. Justice in my book requires someone to evaluate the case and give a sentence, normally that would be done through trial and a judge.-snip-
As a consequences of Osama being killed and then almost immediately being buried, justice has been served. It was proportional (an eye for an eye), it was immediate (a bullet to the head), and there is no body for Al Qaeda to use for a martyr's memorial or a martyr's grave site (he was prepared for burial and then buried at sea).
Bottom line ... justice was served -snip-
Hundreds of years of struggeling and hundreds of thousands of lives have been necessary to finally firmly establish this sacred thing, justice.
However we may value the outcome of this raid positively, the fact that justice had nothing to do with it makes it hard to keep the moral superiority that we so often claim in the war against the terrorists.
Bad mistake from my POV.
