The Obama-Biden campaign marked the first anniversary of the liquidation of Osama bin Laden in an appalling, yet telling, way. It used former President Bill Clinton to extol his successor’s role in the mission – and quoted selectively Republican nominee Mitt Romney to suggest he would not have done the same.
Never mind that Mr. Clinton repeatedly declined to take out bin Laden. What Gov. Romney said in context was absolutely correct: “I wouldn't want to over-concentrate on Bin Laden. He's one of many, many people who are involved in this global Jihadist effort. He's by no means the only leader. It's a very diverse group – Hamas, Hezbollah, al-Qaeda, Muslim Brotherhood and of course different names throughout the world.”
Getting bin Laden isn’t the issue. Getting the rest of the threat right is.
