Geronimo

Geronimo was an Apache Indian born in Mexican soil (today, New Mexico) around 1829. In 1858, the Mexican army killed his family and he started a revenge campaign, which led him to kill "many Mexicans":

"I have killed many Mexicans; I do not know how many, for frequently I did not count them. Some of them were not worth counting. It has been a long time since then, but still I have no love for the Mexicans. With me they were always treacherous and malicious".

The name of the military operation that killed Osama bin Laden  ("Geronimo") suggests that it was all about Revenge, not about Justice.

Bad for Obama!

From a democratic Rechtsstaat such as USA we all expect a trial, not a bullet.
