Presumably it's sad because the public (on your view) believes it on the basis of little to no evidence, instead inheriting its opinion from either media sources or other authorities' declarations.
So let's see the evidence for your view, since you must be privy to intel, eyewitness testimony, government documents, or some piece of deductive reasoning that the rest of us aren't -- otherwise, you'd have the public's view, right? You wouldn't adopt a contrary view with just as little or perhaps less evidence, would you?
We are all in the same boat, none of us are investigative journalists, so most of us believe what we read in the mainstream media. But here is the thing that you should know, all reporters who have passes to white house briefings are very careful in the questions they ask so their priveliges won't be revoked.
Go back to the first Iraq invasion, remember how Bush Sr. had trouble finding support for the war? That all changed when the story came out how iraqi soldiers were throwing babies out of incubators in Kuwait, as eyewitnessed by a nurse in the hospital. It later turned out that the "nurse" was a member of the royal Kuwati family. But americans fell for it hook line and sinker because we all know how americans love babies. You know a little digging by any one of the major new organizations would have found this out.
Same thing happened in invasion 2. Bush jr. stated that Saddam was trying to buy nuclear material from some african shithole country, and no one question it. American media strangely silent.
Did the seals kill Bin laden, I don't know. I remember reports on all the mainstream news outlets say years ago that he was ill and suffer from some kind of kidney disease. Obviously too mush steriod usage (bodybuilding related). So the question is how could he survive so long without the best of medical care? He was supposedly hiding out from cave to cave in those early years.
And here is one more question for all you guys, The bush family had business dealings with the Bin ladens. Nobody says shit about this, How come they were the only plane allowed to leave the US after the attacks?
