If they wanted them alive there are tactics and equipment that could have been deployed. They wanted them dead. The reasons for wanting them dead are many fold. But the main reason is likely that they would not need to follow the Geneva convention in their treatment after capture. I think they made the decision to execute them right there because they already know there aren't WMD, and that the public statements that these two pigs could make might very well cause political harm. No doubt that the order went out to execute them, and that is usually what happens to someone trapped in a building that is attacked by missiles, bombs and a torrent of gunfire. They made sure that there would be only one outcome. Execution. To come to any other conclusion is pure fantasy and delusion caused by severe ignorance of the facts. Orca
