It's about damned time. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Just saw the speech, the messaging in it of "we will find you and we will take you out" was well delivered.
What disturbs me is that it was told (by someone) to the media that it was a CIA Drone that launched the Hellfires. That was commentary that was all a bubble after the president finished his speech. From the link, the info is: It was carried out by an Air Force drone, a U.S. official said separately. One of the people noted that it took “a few days” to confirm the killing because the U.S. doesn’t “have many assets on the ground.”
Why was that necessary? It wasn't. All they needed to know was "it's one of our drones, we shot him, he's dead"
