Osama took the gloves off long ago and we shouldn't let social niceties get in our way of eliminating him

I don't think it is social niceties that stop Junior from eliminating him. War is the only card Junior has to play.

It's been 1383 days since Bush said he'd catch Osama bin Laden 'Dead or Alive!'

re: Osama took the gloves off long ago and we shouldn't let social niceties get in our way of eliminating him and his cronies as a source of threat. If that means violating the sovereignty of other countries, then so be it.

The key issue to me is not "violating the sovereignty", it's taking these people to third countries where they are tortured.

I'm against torturing humans. I know it's a radical and controversial stand, but there it is.

You post how extraordinary rendition is so evil, yet when faced with a scenario within the realm of reason, you balk. My point is that when you are at war, a different set of rules apply. Osama took the gloves off long ago and we shouldn't let social niceties get in our way of eliminating him and his cronies as a source of threat. If that means violating the sovereignty of other countries, then so be it.

So you guys make a mess of Iraq. Brilliant.
