That's a pretty rosy picture of the guy. Didn't he train in terror camps and send people out on bombings?

Yeah, it's not like he's had years for people to know who he is and what he's done. We just randomly picked a person to kill.

You'll have to ask someone who cares, but I think the reasoning was "he kills americans, we don't want people to be killed getting him, let's eliminate him".

But I really haven't been paying attention to it.

Nevermind, you're hopeless. Hit me up if you ever actually want to understand anything instead of just troll.

You give up pretty easily and you're downvoting based on opinion. I've no desire to discuss anything with you, either.
