I'm glad the bugger is gone, but I also mourn for a life wasted. He was no less capable of thought than any of us here, and instead of masterminding a group of thugs he could have been a hospital administrator, run a contracting company, been a teacher, bus driver, or a musician. He chose a path that caused misery and suffering, fortunately he will do that no more.
And a big shout out to the U.S. Navy SEALS who undertook the operation, and congratulations on taking no casualties. This old soldier gives a salute. Let's now hope that the names of the team are kept tightly under wraps to prevent any reprisals against the families.
