Can you elaborate, instead of making other people guess at what you think is obvious?

  That reason is simply failure. They peppered a house trying to shoot him then shot up the boat he was in yet failed to actually shoot him. The reputation police have for poor marksmanship and giving zero fucks for what is behind their target (I can't stress enough how irresponsible this is for a civilian police force operating in urban environments) is well deserved.

    My guess is that because the Russians actually warned of him and his family, yet the US failed to act upon that intel means that perhaps we wanted a favor in return or to use him for something else politically. Happens all the time.

    Very interesting to see that this was up-voted (+8) during the hours where only the east coast was online but now that the west coast (the other timezone with a bunch of HN users) is online it is down-voted. I guess the national news only covered the "we got'em boys" official statements.
