well finding this guy and killing him was a giant step that needed to happen. consider what people would think down the road 20 years: "well we had to leave and we never actually caught him because he was just too damn sneaky."
it really would turn into vietnam II.
even though this isn't the end of the war and even though terrible things will continue to happen around the world, how can this big of a step towards giving more people hope that not only the government is doing its job be bad? i think it gives reassurance to friends and family who are fighting, that they aren't doing so in vain. i dont think it was a large victory by any stretch of the imagination and the war is definitely not over, but aside from the "Hey guys! Look what the Chief did!" part of the speech, i like what happened.
as for the amount of resources committed to finding him and fighting against Al-Quaida and their associates (please forgive the spelling), at this point haven't we as a country moved on from "hey he killed our guys, we need to kill him back"? at first, of course we wanted revenge but we're committed to ensure the Afghan people don't have to put up with crap like that in power. i think when we finally leave A-ghan it'll be from victory regardless of the costs, not withdrawl because of the costs.
