..any administrations worst nightmare.
The media circus
the trials - with countless domestic and international rows on legal issues
the uprisings and demonstrations against the US
the terryfying possibility that something could go wrong and Osama twists the tale..implicating people..upsetting the balance..
I dont know. Probably a more prudent, but brutal way to end it like that. Its no secret that the US -pretty much everybody- wanted him dead.
Far better to just serve up the present and then move like Obama did.
