Congratulations to the people of the United States, to the intelligence services who tracked Bin Laden down, to the special forces planners who capably and scrupulously designed the operation, and to the Navy Seal team that professionally and conclusively fulfilled its execution.
It was something that just had to be done, and justice was a dish served cold.
Bin Laden Dead?

Let's not forget that Al Queda's No. 2: Ayman_al-Zawahiri is still loose.

Bin Laden was the reason for the invasion of Afghanistan...not the Taliban..so now he is gone can we stop this war of terror, get out and leave the Afghans to themselves.
Already the mouthpieces of eternal war and the military industrial complex are sprouting propoganda that the war of terror is not over, to keep the money tree growing.

Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because
1. You're now several kilometres away; and
2. You've got their shoes.

About time.
This brings up no emotion in me, although I still clearly remember 9/11. I understand that people need to gloat at the victory, but cheering over someone's death is not something I would ever do. Had to be done, and it's good that it was done, but I won't be going out with a flag in downtown Boston to cheer.
Politically, a nice boost to Obama, and a lot of egg on Pakistan's face, but I doubt anything will shift in the US/Pak relationship. If anything, the US-India rapprochement will move a bit faster in the direction it would have moved in anyway. The only way this news is significant is in PR, as a bit of US bookkeeping.

Azari,
Your canards doesnt make any sense. Uncertainity about OBL whereabouts netted Pakistan 10billion USD. He was worth more living than dead , and there is no need for Pakistanis to hand the body and collect 25million USD.
SInce this house was under survivelence sinve August, we might already know a lot of ISI/Pak military conversations with OBL. You will see more proof as time passes by.
Hopefully the troops can get out of afganistan and leave that hellhole to the natives. Let India handle the Pakistanis.

Now I'm far from home
Spending time alone
It's time to set my demons free
Been put to the test
My mind laid to rest
I'm on a psycho holiday
