    I certainly agree with that.

    Was Osama the main financier and benefactor of al-qaeda with his $300 million inheritance?

    Pakistan will demand a lot from US for their so called help in killing Osama( considering he was living in their capital)

    Might have to go and revisit my geography, when was the capital of Pakistan moved to a remote village near the Afghan border?

    So the US killed Bin Laden? it's "goof" but couldn't they arrest him instead?

    Oh, I think that it's close enough - it's a city of about 120,000 only 50k from Islamabad. There was also a large military base right down the street, apparently.

    If he had done that a few years ago, it would've saved everyone a lot of trouble...
