    Good. I would be more upset if a secret CIA/Army raid took along freaking video cameras.

    They have in the past. Head mounted cameras are common as it allows commanders to see the action and whats going on.

    I'd have rather seen him die in a video. It would make his death even more satisfactory.

    There were probably some serious legal considerations.

    Word is that they want to avoid the president being asked for some kind of possible testimony situation when a possible legal case comes forth from this.

    WTF, honestly why is the US constantly making up about the Bin Ladin raid? How damn hard is it to tell the truth?

    They made up the fact that they had a live video of his death and before, they said they had photos and were going to release them and then said they weren't. They also said that he was armed when he was killed and then later said he wasn't. Just about anything the White House has said about this case has been pure .

    Closed.

    Starting a thread with just a youtube video is not an acceptable way to open a debate. Plus this can easily be discussed here.
