The operation that k**led Bin Laden differs on several accounts. First and foremost the intent of the mission was to first attempt to capture him, he was k**led only after resisting capture. Last years k*****g by special forces of bu Bakr al-Baghdadi in Syria is closer to the events leading to Bin Laden’s demise. Neither man was a government official and both were wanted criminals. Suleimani was a high ranking Iranian official and not a fugitive from justice, the attack also k**led an Iraqi official and was done in defiance of the Iraqi government. The differences are night and day. As far as notification of congress, it was clearly known that the US military and intelligence agencies had been actively hunting him for years. Special operations forces carrying out the raid would have been at great risk had details of the operation been made public or gotten out. In the case of Soleimani, he was k**led with a drone fired missile, and no U.S. service members would be put at risk if members of the intelligence committee were notified. His k*****g was not part of our strategic goals until your I***t Pumpkinfuhrer needed a distraction from his impeachment.
