Taking a Chomp out of Chomsky

This post is in regards to Noam Chomsky's latest article, "My Reaction to Osama bin Laden’s Death" . Although well written, there are many things that I strongly disagree within. The first would be of Noam not analyzing the consequences of capturing Bin Laden. Does anybody think that Bin Laden would actually get a fair trial? And does anyone doubt that terrorist attacks would be committed in attempts to liberate or hostage-trade for Bin Laden?
Noam makes a good point about Bin Laden only much later admitting and taking credit for the 9/11 attacks. Many of us remember him denying any involvement. What anti-western terrorist group would not want credit for that? But those bragging rights cost him dearly and where dangerous propaganda.
The comparison of Bush being assassinated and dumped at sea is far out. Even if we consider Bush and and Bin Laden war criminals, that comparison is silly at best. You must take into consideration why Bin Laden was assassinated and dumped at sea. The reason was the anticipated repercussion from fanatic sympathizers. A better comparison would be if the U.S. would be harboring an international terrorist, and foreign government agency had to sneak in and kill him. Would we blame the U.S. for harboring that criminal, or criticize the country that entered the U.S. to take him out?
