John Yoo: In Killing Osama, Obama Lost Valuable Intelligence

I wrote today in the Wall Street Journal today that while the Obama administration is to be given all due credit for Sunday's daring raid to kill Osama bin Laden, it might have sacrificed an even more important victory in the war on terror: capturing bin Laden.  Capturing bin Laden would have been the intelligence coup of the century -- think of all the intelligence he would have shared.  But this administration's fear of the difficult detention, interrogation, and trial issues regarding terrorists, I fear, led it to decide to just kill him.
