Relevant interchange below:

BOB SCHIEFFER: Do you think this means that’s the end of al Qaeda?

SENATOR JOHN KERRY: Well, I--I don’t want to speculate. What I do know is that this is an
unbelievable treasure of--of information, number one. Number two--and I think this is really4
important, Bob, for people to factor in. You know, some people in some parts of the world have
been questioning the shooting of Osama bin Laden. Let me tell you. Those SEALs had no idea
what they were going to meet in there. And they had no idea whether Osama bin Laden was
lunging for a button that would blow up the entire building. They had no--there were weapons in
the room. He was reaching for them. What we do know is he was not surrendering. It was the
dead of night. And that is as--as--as tense and as hairy an operation as you can have. I think
those SEALs did exactly what they should have done. And we need to shut up and move on
about you know, the realities of what happened in that building.
