I am getting wrapped up in this.
I was not sufficiently informed earlier. Apparently we went in there looking to capture him but it came down to a firefight where we killed him in self-defense. Ok, I get it.
But our reaction is...scary, immature, and frankly detrimental. Please read this article, I think it really gets at my point, and it is short:

It seems like we have won for now. But maybe this is a victory for them. When it is us and them no one wins. This war is never-ending. People have reason to be worried about the repercussions of this. This is sad.
