To draw a line under the whole OBL thing. It's going to be the 10th anniversary of 9/11 soon. That's probably going to be a big deal, and people might start asking questions about Afghanistan, Iraq and why he was never caught. Personally I think he was killed years ago in Afghanistan and the US Government/intelligence knows it, but can't prove it for sure. So this operation was to tie up that loose end.
I'm not even saying it's a bad thing. It might be a good thing to have a 'definitive' end, especially as he was dead anyway. I just don't believe it happened the way they're saying. And it's not really very definitive.
