By now most of you know that Osama Bin Laden was killed on Sunday in Pakistan. What you probably did not know is how the order was executed. Using my crystal ball I am able to provide you excerpts of the conversation:
Military Advisor: Mr. President, we have identified a compound in Pakistan where Osama Bin Laden is located. We are prepared to strike.
President: Yes, unions should strike when they believe their employer is not paying them or taking care of them.
Military Advisor: Excuse me, Mr. President, we did not say they were on strike. We said we would strike, as in attack the compound.
President: Yes, I see. So, you intend to capture him?
Military Advisor: Definitely, sir. Our highly trained Navy Seals have waited 9+ years and are prepared to capture him.
President: Excellent! You are authorized to capture him!
Military Advisor: .... [several hours late] .... Sir, well, about that capture order. Well, Mr. President, he resisted arrest after being properly Mirandized, so we were forced to use deadly force. Osama Bin Laden is dead.
President: I see. I guess it could not be helped. Please make sure we bury him using proper Muslim procedures!
