Whichever way, its murder

So the rampaging Americans have invaded Pakistan and murdered a Osama bin Laden.

Most of us would agree we could have debated his beliefs and ideas, but condemned his methods and tactics in trying to impose them on the world. He stinks of hate and has corrupted thousands of others who do not have his intellectual capacity to understand how wrong he was.

But it was murder. Not war.

I am a pacifist, I believe that any problem can be dealt with by debate, discussion and properly constituted courts of law. In this case every effort should have been made to bring the man to the International Court in the Hague - but oh, I forgot, the USA does not recognise this court. The USA still believes in "Dead or Alive" justice with no trial.

That is wrong, and its about time we put more effort into trying to change their views. And effort into combating terrorist ideas and propaganda. And effort into bringing more despots to justice in the world's courts.
