How can you forgive Bin Laden? Bin Laden ordered the killings of thousands and thousands of people purely to get one over on the Western world. Death is not the answer. America and the UK invaded Afghanistan to fight the people who were attacking the innocent people in the West, people get killed in Wars that's the sad way it is but the point is the intention of America and the UK when going to Afghanistan was not to kill innocent civilians, Bin Ladens aim was to kill innocent civilians and I personally cannot see how anyone can "forgive" him for that.
Question the intentions surrounding Iraq all you want - Iraq was subject to a National Inquiry in this country, the invasion of Afghanistan however was lawful and whilst I don't agree with the concept, I think the reason was quite clear.
All this speculation about Bin Laden perhaps dying ages ago or whatever - who cares the fact is he's definitely dead, although I agree with the person who said if they did kill him yesterday, I would be keeping away from places likely to be terrorist targets.
