<What if he is surrounded by a dozen body guards at all times and is in the midst of hundreds or thousand of radical supporters who would shoot at the few people you send over to his house?> In the numbers you mention, making an "arrest" would be challenging, but well within the capability of the US military - ditto for Israel in Gaza. If, in making an arrest, there is stiff resistance to the arrest, lethal force may be used. It is entirely possible that this would be the outcome, but not a forgone conclusion by any means. I don't think the old guy in the wheelchair would personally put up much of a fight -- parapelegics typically don't run fast or shoot straight.
