Bin Laden is Now in the Dustbin of History. Literally!

Well you have to hand it to Obama. He carried out the mission and signed the papers and took the risks if we missed him and he bagged the big prize. Here is a great article on how it all went down.

Nestled in an affluent neighborhood, the compound was surrounded by walls as high as 18 feet, topped with barbed wire. Two security gates guarded the only way in. A third-floor terrace was shielded by a seven-foot privacy wall. No phone lines or Internet cables ran to the property. The residents burned their garbage rather than put it out for collection. Intelligence officials believed the million-dollar compound was built five years ago to protect a major terrorist figure. The question was, who?

All I can say is Seal Team 6 is badass and they need to make a movie of their exploits. Also it would be nice to have the members of the team that went in lionized and made into celebrities. After all they killed America's most hated enemy and did not lose a single man in the process.
