If you’ve killed Bin Laden, you didn’t it on your own. You didn’t do it on your own.
I’m always struck by people who think, “Well, it must be ’cause I was just so smart.” There are a lot of smart people out there. “It must be because I worked harder than everybody else.” Let me tell you something: There are a whole bunch of hard-working people out there.
If you can claim to have killed Bin Laden, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great General somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American military we have that allowed you to get him. Somebody invested in training and weapons systems. If you killed a terrorist mastermind, you didn’t kill him. Somebody else made that happen.
