What does the killing of OBL say for the huge military budget we are burdened under?

They could have nuked the neighborhood. They could have invade with tens of thousands. They could have bombed the compound to dust.

Or they could send in a couple of seal teams to kill a mass murderer. It's like using a fly swatter to kill a fly instead of a bulldozer.

The after effects may be longer lasting than anyone may realize.
