You misunderstand what I was trying to say. There seems to be more to the story or less, than what we have gotten, since it is continually changing. I am not being a Monday Morning Quarterback, for one main reason, I still don't think we have gotten all the facts. I still think that something is amiss. The timing all in one week of the release of A birth certificate, appointment of Pinetta, attack on Osama Bin Laden, immediate burial at sea, all just don't add up to me. You can accept it at face value, you are entitled, but as of right now, I am still skeptical of a lot of it.
To me, it all reeks of politicizing, on the campaign trail, which to be honest, Obama has never done anything but campaign.
As expected a wide range or reactions. regardless of what we think it is not going to change anything. As for the young man, it seems he is trying to look at it rationally. according to the story He is simply not aware of the fine distinction between the examples he cited vs his father's declaration of war.
Citing the trials of Saddam Hussein, the former Iraqi leader, and Slobodan Milosevic, the former Serbian leader, the statement questioned “the propriety of such assassination where not only international law has been blatantly violated,” but the principles of presumption of innocence and the right to a fair trial were ignored.
I don't think for a moment he expected to see his father go unpunished or for that matter be killed.
As for his stance against violence. It only takes one to start the tide rolling. Considering the family in which he grew up in, I'm certain he developed rather strong convictions and will act on those. Naive? I doubt it, but he may be that single candle in the night that sheds light for others to follow. Would you not rather have him speak on behalf of Islam as opposed to his father and his followers?
