Secondly, he's apparently bene cut off from any real "shot calling" for a long time so he wouldn't really have known all that much anyway. This is all just pure speculation of course. I'm just curious to see what the reactions will be. FWIW, while I have HUGE criticisms for American foreign policy, targeted assassination of terrorist heads who plotted or otherwise bank rolled/supported attacks is legit and if we had stuck to just that the whole time, we'd probably be a lot better off generally right now. For that matter, we might have had him a long time ago. But whatever, it's done.
Would you leave your home alive if they came to take you? I know I wouldnt
