It appears to be claimed DNA evidence and the body... I wonder how we know it is his DNA?

Apparently we already had his DNA on file or something, and then were able to compare it to the body. A little strange, but not too farfetched.

Either way, this announcement is going to have strong ramifications for us in the future, one way or another.

Now he has been martyred. A live capture would have been much more beneficial.

True that, but this is a solid second best.

So a circus of a trial could be held and he could be sentenced to death anyway? Meh, waste of money for what a bomb already did.

Good riddance.

I disagree. The best thing would be if he had been captured and beheaded publicly, having his orifices stuffed with various pork products.

Whether he was killed in an air strike or whether he was held on trial and then killed, either way he was going to be seen and will have thought himself to be a martyr.

Why? To give him a pulpit? To put him on international tv everyday?

This was the best result.
