re: Bin Laden Killed
I know US citizens tend to dislike things that take a long time, but again, many of our countries staunchest enemies believe that we don't have the long term will power to search out those who do the country harm. Therefore, the fact that we continued through 10 years of unglamorous hunt and search missions says something to our enemies that hasn't been said in a long long time.
As for the cost, ugh, but I wonder how that specific tally could ever be calculated and separated from the typical intelligence budgets. It's not like we would have said, oh well since we aren't hunting Bin Laden, I guess we don't need to keep tabs on Al-Qaeda courier movements any more.
