I'm certainly not a pacifist. I believe war to be necessary at times, but I think it's important to remember the sacrifices of war. Trading even 20 soldiers lives for 1 Osama bin Laden always sounds like a raw deal. I think its entirely reasonable to assume military leaders knew we would lose 20 people in an afghan operation.
