You know about as much as what really happened as I do.
To clarify my position.. I would like to see him go to trial. But if the opportunity wasn't there to take him alive then so be it.
I just think Misa's position that "she's glad that he's dead and doesn't care that he didn't get a trial" is not rationally justifiable.

Its rational to her its not up nor I to decide if she is being rational about her feelings on the matter. She is not a Americans citizen of course her feelings would differ from people like MMM and I. Its obvious she thought he was a bad guy and she doesn't care that he didn't get a trail because he died in the same fashion that he lived violently but shes not going to loose sleep over it. I see nothing wrong with her position.
Again and i will not change my position on this because i feel VERY strongly about it. He was an enemy commander and combatant. If there was no way to take him alive and his action put any of the SEALS at risk he was treated as an enemy in a time of war. No we don't know all the details and we probably never will. I would have liked to see a trial but if his killing was unavoidable then so be it. I refuse to sadden that a guy who has no problem killing thousands of "civilians" to accomplish his goal in the name of his warped idea of Islam.

Again you're being presumptuous.
Pakistan actually denies that it knew where he was. Did elements of Pakistan's SIS know? Perhaps... but there is no proof that they knew or no evidence to suggest that they could or should have known.

Im not presumptuous. All im saying is that the aid we give them should be pulled till a through investigation can be conducted. If there is no evidence to support that no one in the upper ranks of the Pakistani government knew he was there then aid shall be returned. However, the location his compound was built in is a well to do area and the cost of the construction alone was in the millions. Im sorry someone knew maybe not in the upper ranks but someone did. Im not accusing them of anything but if your roof has a leak in you find the leak and plug it not sit and wait for a leak to cave your roof in.
