Not sure I'll sleep better tonight
The CIA has decided to shut down the unit soley focused on finding Bin Laden.
First, this will undoubtedly be viewed as a victory by Al Qaeda. Nice time to embolden the enemy.
Now for a recap on the man who no longer merits special attention.
Binny is responsible for:
Bringing down the Twin Towers
The direct deaths of over 3000 innocent Americans
The Afghan War
The Iraq War
The several thousand military deaths incurred in those wars
The tens of thousands of military wounded in those wars
The tens of thousands of civilian deaths in those wars
The untold number of civilan wounded in those wars
Gitmo
Softer issues like the PATRIOT Act, warrantless wire taps, etc
So I guess it makes sense that we no longer need a dedicated unit to bring him in. Clearly there's nothing special about him. The longer he's out there the less dangerous he and his organization become, right?
