I do agree that the value of killing OBL weighed more than the possible intel value
But remember, OBL was an attention whore. He loved loved loved when the cameras were pointed at him.
A year in the Supermax Federal Prison with conditions not unlike the Unabomber might have loosened his tongue. Then again, that intel would be 1 year old.
I agree with the decision, but its like your thinking when you drop a cabinet full of expensive china. You only have two hands - do you rescue the tea cup or the plate?
