Bin Laden was reported as dead in 2002 from kidney failure. Dumping the body in the sea without an independent DNA examination? No photos? Helmet cams just happened to be out? You think America is stupid? The Seals took out an unarmed man so he could never speak at a trial - probably a double who had been living an easy life, safe near the Pakistan Army college, with 3 wives and having kids who thought they would be heirs to the Bin Laden family fortune. Let's see an independent DNA analysis comparing his "kids" to known Bin Laden relatives.

"Geronimo Brick"....I find this interesting that the individual in charge of the Defense department is authorized war trophies but the military troops are not. I guess the rules are "do as I say not as I do!"
Poor display of an example!
