The fact he is not in an officially recognized army merely means that he is not protected by law designed to protect officially recognized armies.  He was the leader of a militant organization that explicitely proclaimed it was involved in military action against the USA.  He was a fair military target.  If he wanted a trial, he should have surrendered.  The guy was the recipient of, not only what he deserved, but a proper and legal action by the US mlitary.

But dontcha know it's a slippery slope to the target-killing of all politiclal dissenters, within and outside the U.S.? Like at the next G20 summit or something, or maybe the GOP will take out the gay pride parade or NAACP.
