OBL declared war on the US numerous occasions and attacked the WTC on 2 seperate occasions killing over 3000 people, with money he provided.

I'm sorry, but there was nothing unlawful about the killing of OSL.

Well what if the seals had tortured him, made him their sex slave and then killed him after a 10 hour ordeal. Would that be lawful?

If my auntie had bollocks, would she be my uncle?

Of course that wouldn't be ok, because torture is never is, and directly contravenes the Geneva convention. Your example also suggests they raped him, which again is illegal. We can play stupid scenario based word games for as long as you like.

But at some point you're going to need to provide a real reason why this was unlawful. If you can do that, then I'll hold my hands up and say you're right.
