Krauthammer Destroys Obama's Excuses For Not Releasing Bin Laden Photos

Krauthammer's final point is the caper:
"The only reason you want to release it is to prove he is dead, especially in parts of the world, there will be mythology.
The only reason the president ordered the raid the way he did, a risky operation, he could have used a predator and destroyed the compound and reduced bin Laden to a cinder.
The reason he ordered a raid, risky operation, is to produce proof of death.
We did not enter this to produce a trophy. I'm not sure why the president has a compulsive need to morally preen that he is not spiking the football."

BTW: Not that I fault or disagree with Obama's Ground Zero visit, but wouldn't his victory speech be classified as "spiking the ball?"

It they had taken out bin Laden with a drone, they would have killed a lot of women and children, and there would be no certainty, even among the Americans that he was gruly deceased.

Or as the song says,

"But we've got to verify it legally, to see

To see?

Coroner
As Coroner I must aver, I thoroughly examined her.
And she's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead.
Mayor
Then this is a day of Independence For all the Munchkins and their descendants
Barrister
If any.
Mayor
Yes, let the joyous news be spread
The wicked [bin Laden] at last is dead!
