Nicky Campbell takes your calls, asking 'What's wrong with an eye for an eye? '
Was it right to kill Osama bin Laden, or should the Americans have tried harder to take him alive?
Guests include Michael Phillips of the Christian Legal Centre, who believes the killing was a practical solution - but justice needs to be seen to be done.
Also on the programme, Colonel Richard Kemp, former commander of British forces in Afghanistan, Stacy Hilliard, the vice chair of Republicans Abroad, who trusts the judgment of the US Navy SEALS who carried out the operation, and Anjum Anwar, dialogue development officer for Blackburn Cathedral, who believes an eye for an eye would result in a lot of blind people.
