In Their Own Words

Eric Holder, US Attorney General (senate hearings)

" ... the possibility of catching him alive ... is infinitessamile ... he will
be killed by us, or he will be killed by his own people so he is not captured by us, we know that."

"If Usama Bin Laden comes inside Afghanistan, which is the writ of my mandate
because I'm the ISAF Commander here, we certainly would go after trying to
capture him alive and bring him to justice. I think that this is something
that is understood by everyone"

General Stanley McChrystal (March 17, 2010)

Ummmm ....

that's a contradiction, isn't it?
