His death or capture will not make us safer. It'll just make us feel better.

Rick, I think Jeff, Glenn and many like them don't think OBL needs to be taken out. Heck, bush doesn't think OBL should be taken out, he has said exactly that.
It doesn't look like we're going to convince each other on the secondary motive for killing OBL, that is it will make us safer by removing a spiritual leader capable of directing minions to their death at our expense. No leader, no one to tell them to pilot aircraft into buildings, and I think we all know your average terrorist doesn't wake up and say, hey, I've got to take flying lessons in an effort to destroy American, and its Freedom I hate so much.
Doesn't happen.
