Interesting. I've always wondered about political assassinations like this. How can anybody (even those going in to do the hit) be sure of the identity of the target? I suppose DNA ID can help, but then again, how did they know Bin Laden's DNA prior to this investigation?

Didn't they link his DNA to his sister or am I thinking of something else?
If this is how they found him, then god damn that's clever.
