He shouldn't get credit. The people involved deserve the credit. Sad thing is the simple minded voters wont see it that way. Its either Red or Blue in their eyes. Sad to see a country with so much potential being ruined.

@teamhex I'd say he was involved. Maybe not on the ground shooting at him, but he was part of the operation. I agree with that last part. I don't trust politics overall at all.

The answer is yes. He always supported the invasion into Afghanistan because that was an arguably necessary response to 9/11. However, he always opposed the invasion into Iraq, in part because it stupidly divided the war effort in two. During his campaign and after his election he has made it clear that the focus belongs in Afghanistan, and of course he's right, and that's why they finally caught him. If it weren't for the invasion into Iraq, they would have caught him years ago. So yes.

@SentientRaven And to think that at one time, you'd be criticized for condemning the Iraq war as a sideshow.

@clicb4 I dont know what to think anymore in this country because everyone has some sort of agenda. Re-election or just boosting their ratings, its always something.

@Godusesamac I define official in this case as the president himself declaring Obama officially dead and saying they have DNA evidence to confirm. With that said, we the people actually have no real proof that he was killed, so in that regard, I understand where you're coming from. I've heard that Osama's wife and daughter have said that it was indeed Osama that was killed. Am I 100% sold on what the media says, no, but I think he's probably dead & that it doesn't really matter overall.

@Godusesamac First time I've heard him being reported as officially dead vs. "We may have gotten him in a bombing we did recently".

In a case like this, Obama is the heart of the operation, the CIA,FBI,and the intel folks are the brains, and the armed forces are the body, without each other were just a bunch of nothing, it takes eveything working as one to do anything, so I believe credit should be give equally

@variablast I didn't think it was much of an issue until I found myself not agreeing with a few people. I did an earlier take of this video where I said that people these days are too troop happy thus causing them to forget that the troops are a necessary evil. Don't dare criticize ANYTHING troop related or you'll be socially lynched...or so it seems. I find myself too opinionated to shut up sometimes though.

@Godusesamac Why do you think he died years ago? If he did, I would think it would've made headlines years ago and there would be more about it in the news.
