The Just End of Osama bin Laden

Justice has prevailed. Finally.

Osama bin Laden, the de facto leader of the world-wide terrorist movement, Al Qaeda, and the number One terrorist on the FBIs Most Wanted list, was shot and killed in a daring military operation by the United States military.

Hiding in plain site inside Pakistan, bin Laden appears to have gone off the electronic grid.  Avoiding the personal use of telephones, email and the web, he still directed terrorist activities.

Well, he did.  But no more.

Perseverance finally paid off for the US military.  Following up on leads obtained from captured terrorists and documents, they tracked down one of his most trusted couriers.

Sometimes when dross rises to the top, the best strategy is to shoot it.  And then dump it in the sea.
