Possible alternate solution to dealing with Osama bin Laden

Osama bin Laden has his money stashed all over the world and receives over 25 million per year in donations from rich Arabs who support him. You will not impoverish him because you'll never be able to find all the money. You must realize that his money isn't in accounts with his name on it and many countries not friendly to the U.S. won't allow us to access their financial records.
The idea of making him pay for rebuilding and compensating victims families is a good one but not too feasible, unfortunately.

As for making bin Laden a martyr, I wouldn't worry about it. Martyrs are a dime a dozen in the middle east. He needs to be eliminated because he has charisma and people follow him. Imagine if Hitler was killed in say, 1942? How long would Germany have lasted without Hitler's forceful leadership?
True leaders are rare and bin Laden is one of those, which is why he must be eliminated. The sooner, the better.
