4. My dad was a WW2 USAAF navigator who volunteeered.
He NEVER talked about the war to us although he did discuss it a bit with my son.

He was horrified when "shock and awe" occurred. He was of course horrified on 9/11. He LOATHED war after his tour of duty.

He would have not lost a moment's fret over ObL's killing and he was by far the most compassionate and moral person I ever knew. That's my dad. I'm a little uncomfortable but I think we had no choice; the man had to be stopped.
