#1 One bad guy, one Hellfire missle. $70,000 per shot is certainly one way to bust a budget.

#2 "...roughly a dozen members of the cell..." Killed one a year since the cell's founding. Par for the FBI course.

#3 Takes that long (and costs more than $70k) to filter through the layers of lawyers.

#4 compare the cost of that vs the "arrest, incarceration and trial" method.

Trump may not be so soft toward the human shields of mass murder promoting psychopaths.

#6 I wonder if someone's tried putting a stabilized M2 on a drone. Gotta be cheaper than wasting anti-tank munitions on them.

#7 I do have to wonder just how much Law-fare the new leadership will put up with. Most of the mentioned DoD NSS Advisor and DCI leadership names being bandied about do not come to mind as the sort of persons who want JAG calling the shots, and tactical ROE field decisions made and critiqued from desk jockeys in the pentagon.
