Were ANY country in the position of the United States with this intel, they would have done the exact same thing. I want to slap anyone who complains about this move. It was 100% necessary.

They would do it, sure, and many have done similar things. Russia does them all the time in Chechnya, but would any high-ranking American ever say "let's do that thing that the Russians are doing in Chechnya?" No. More likely a given American official will condemn Russia's Chechnya action
Though i suppose we support the Israelis when they pull stunts like this too. Hmm...

Even if we don't support every move where a nation kills a terrorist, there are VERY few terrorists who planned an attack that killed over 3,000 people, toppled two of the largest structures on the planet, and managed to evade capture for a DECADE. Put any other country in that same position with the scope of the WTC disaster and they kill bin Laden, just like the US did.

Right. Anyone would do it, but we would likely criticize them for it.

See, I don't think we would. Not someone who is obviously THAT large a thorn in the world's side.

What about Abdel Basset al-Megrahi? Sure he was only reponsible for an 250 casualties and he was not a leader of a terrorist group but he could took more actions and caused another hundreds, thousands or even a lot more casualties... and he had/haves a lot of influence check the vid of his arriving in Libya..
Secondly the point is that USA cared a lot about this law an example is the Suez crisis, we could say UK/France were even at that time no more allies of the USA..
I totally understand your feelings and can agree with you in a way but for me this issue will still stand more as an political issue and a message for the US citizens.
