Dude, to go out in a blaze of glory was their decision! I read a quotation
from an Iraqis who said he was sorry to hear that the pair had been killed.
He commented that he’d wished they been sufficiently tortured first. They
knew what capture would have meant.

Y’know, I cannot recall a single instance before the administration of Shrub
where the idea of detaining people in contravention of the most basic of all of
our supposedly protected civil rights AND the idea of torturing them was part of
every day rhetoric -- as if it were okay to do these things!
I won’t shed a tear for the now dead monsters of the world. And if they died
resisting capture, or in a situation where capture was impossible -- fine, their
dead because of how they lived their lives. Let’s just make sure we get all of
the war criminals -- even the ones in D.C. Let’s bring them to the justice they
deserve.
I seem to recall the trial of war criminals at Nuremberg. To my knowledge, the
U.S. did not take part in torturing these war criminals.
I am a little worried that the Constitutional experiment has slipped so far,
that people are not even remembering what it was like when things were a little
different.
