Why not extradite him and make him face justice?

I expect there’s a huge logistics and cost difference between exploding him and sending in a team of Marines to grab him and drag him out.

Chopped up rather than blown up, they were the spinny blade type missiles.

They tried that in 2001. Afghanistan said no.

laugh I can understand people not liking the Dems, but siding with the leader of Al Qaeda is deranged.

Apparently the US military etc wanted him taken out for ages, they were tracking him, knew where he was, but trump didn't agree because he didn't know who he was, but wanted to go for Bin Ladens son because of the name and wanting to have a famous name kill.

Interesting in the report of the death is they had assets able to confirm the death. A CIA ground team and aerial reconnaissance conducted after the drone strike confirmed al-Zawahri’s death.

Sends a little message to Putin I guess biggrin

I can sort of see why, but are AQ a massive threat to the US, from my limited understanding they pulled out, it seems fairly quiet (might not be, dont hear much about it though) and now they have gone in and pissed a few people off, again.

Its what they do I guess. Has an Al Qaeda ever extradited someone to face trial?
My only worry is that nobody seems bothered if anyone else was killed . Family member,visiting neighbor etc.
Thats the real problem with people today.

Don’t forget siding with Putin and the CCP. It’s bizarre.

I’m more concerned about the fact that the US is still carrying out extra judicial killings. I’m happy to be proven wrong, but I’m guessing the Afghan government didn’t approve this attack.

as bad as the saudis killing people in Dubai. Disgrace from the americans to think they can put a CIA ground team into someone else's country and continue to launch drone strikes.

its unlikely the Pakistanis would let them use their soil, so where are these drones being launched from.
