Honestly if you were one of those seals and had Bin Laden infront of you with orders to take him dead or alive. Would you really take him alive? Its not very Christian of me but I'd have a very hard time taking the SOB alive. I'm not even sure Obama could control the SEAL's if they really wanted him dead his orders would be meaningless.
I would have been extremely suprised if they had taken him alive. Its not like Saddam who killed his own people, Osama killed American's and thousands of them. The SEAL's would be taking this alittle personal. Its like if you had armed an Iraqi Shiite army officer and then asked him to take Saddam dead or alive. I doubt that soldier would be taking him alive.
In the end Osama would have been sentenced to death anyways, he deserved a fair trial but we all knew the out come. These soldiers knew he was going to die whether they shot him or not. It would have been a very very difficult thing to do to take him alive!
