"I have already stated that I will not support the soldiers if they acted unlawfully.
That would be if they ignored a request to surrender. ...
That is what your UN piece was about Lively."

Yes, that's correct.

I wouldn't advice soldiers on anything of course.
However, considering the differing accounts of the event as initially given by The Whitehouse press office, compared to those later submitted by the Seals themselves, I think it legitimate that the UN request disclosure of further details pertaining to the operation.

Note the text of the UN statement which refers to the planning of the mission rather than it's execution:

"the United States of America should disclose the supporting facts to allow an assessment in terms of international human rights law standards. For instance it will be particularly important to know if the planning of the mission allowed an effort to capture Bin Laden."

If it were to unfold that this was in fact a planned assassination, as some indeed suspect, then it's not merely soldiers who acted unlawfully.

Many on this thread (from your statements, clearly you are not among them) clearly find issues of lawfulness or otherwise, to be an irrelivancy in this matter. I don't agree with such a position.
