nobody deserves to die IMO
Everybody deserves to die; that's an intrinsic aspect of mortality. It's that some people don't deserve to delight in the gifts of life. To solve that end, I'd say getting killed in a firefight is a hell of a lot more merciful/honorable of a way to go out than withering away in a cell somewhere for years to come.

I know it can seem that everyone is celebrating in a manner akin to an all-our-problems-are-solved kind of reaction... but, I really don't think most people are so naive as to think that that sort of nonsense (thinking that the U.S. gives a bajillion shits about Middle Eastern oil is a different story, though). It's just one very, very symbolic problem (of our own well-known creation) solved. Being able to take out one specific jihadist hiding in the middle of bumfuck nowhere is pretty damned impressive, not to mention that being able to ask "was it worth it?" is a much more pleasant question than "is it possible?".

And T-Nex, don't even worry. Every region's redneck subculture is equally incompetent at getting complex tasks (like dooming a continent) done
