I think it should be up to Iraq. If they wan't him to be tried internationally, I would prefer, but I think they should ultimately choose his fate. They suffered the most under him. Its great news that we nabbed him, and that's an understatement. I think in the short-term it will incite a rash of attacks again, but the insurgents will be squashed. Maybe this will force a lot of them out of hiding and they'll be caught easier. The weight that this must lift off the shoulders of the Iraqi people must be immense.
Many thanks to our troops for work well done.
Now if we can only mark Osama off our Christmas Wish list, we'd have a December to remember, as if it isn't already.
It was great to see the footage of the Iraqis celebrating. From Baghdad to Dearborn, MI.
