Well if you can believe the news, it is. In this case, I believe they are right.

The news does need to settle down a bit. They keep talking like this is the end of terrorism, but he was not the sole source. He had followers that will be more then happy to take up the torch.

I do wish he had been captured so he could stand trial, if only to bring to light to some of his followers, the insanity he preached. Dead he has become a martyr.

I keep hearing the news say "We can go back to normal" or "we can fly without fear".. these are the things we cannot do at least for the moment. We should be extremely cautious for retaliation strikes. These are extremists and thus logical in their minds.

One thing to consider though, it will make Obama look fantastic during the election.

Will it?

Shrug. Don't imagine this news changing anything.

When I first heard about it, I thought it was a joke. Either way, shrugging my shoulders at this.

Confirmed kill. Fells good to say that.

Yah, since he was the leader of an organization that was responsible for an attack that took nearly 3000 American lives and changed our way of life forever, I can see where some might not see a sense of justice as others might. For many of the victims families it may only be a sense of closure. Judging from the crowds forming at Ground Zero and the Capitol it means something to those that have a more direct connection. Where as it might not change our policies or Al Qaeda's dedication, it does change some things, even if its only at a personal level.
