Watching the news report this was pretty funny. I was flipping back and forth between Fox and CNN, both reporters were so excited they kept mumbling and studdering. They would cut off people in mid sentence - with new information. But the best was how hard they were trying to find the right words WITHOUT a teleprompter.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I don't think I'm going to celebrate, as the taking of a life, regardless of necessity, is no cause for joy for me. I am relieved that he is no longer a threat, but I am seriously concerned that all of this celebration will only serve to martyr him, and serve as a springboard for even more egregious acts of violence from Al Q'aeda and similar extremist groups. The best course of action would have been to remove him quietly, and let his legacy be one of obscurity.
Thanks, Jim

Calling an illegal alien an "undocumented immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "undocumented pharmacist"
Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.
I don't think it would matter much if we celebrated or not. These people are going to continue their activities regardless of what we do. While I see your point and it is an excellent one, forgetting the past will open us up to future issues. "Those that cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." If the actions of Osama and his followers were forgotten and burried, then those that died for that cause would be forgotten and that can't happen. Many lives have been sacrificed for the fight against terrorism and I believe that it's going to go on for a long time. If we can protect the many with the lives of a few then I think it is justified.
While we shouldn't necessarily celebrate his death but celebrate that those that have died because of him have been avenged. His death doesn't equal the countless numbers that have died in search of him but it shows the kind of people that Americans are. I love the freedoms that I have and is unfortunete that we live in a world were those freedoms have to be protected from others, but that is the way it is for now.
There should be a world wide toast for getting rid of another douche...

I'm not going to lie, I am glad he's dead. I'm not out dancing in the streets, however I consider the celebrations as much about the symbolism of his death and what it represents as anything else.
The fact is it doesn't take much to motivate terrorists, and they will always find some reason to justify their actions. That does not mean we shouldn't have gone after him, and even if a new terrorist leader does spring up, Osama was unique in his capabilities. He was incredibly intelligent in his own right, much like Hitler was, and people like that are fortunately few and far between.
The world will have another Osama one day, and I have no doubt there will be some Al Qaeda reprisals going on somewhere at least for a short while, but this needed to happen. I also think quietly making him disappear would have been wrong - he's been quietly invisible for two decades, except when he is making a statement or killing people. His death was broadcast far and wide for good reason.

I think you have to tell the world that he is dead and have proof (DNA testing) that the US killed him. If we didn't AlQuida and other terrorist groups would say it's just a ploy as part of an information operation against them.
Also, it give "some" closure to those families that lost friends/families on 9-11-01.
My last deployment (200 I ran a detention facility in Baghdad and i know that there is a major facility in Bagram, Astan. I wonder what the mood/feel within the facility is with the detainees. Will they riot, or has the face of their leader dying crushed their will to fight anymore???

y'know the gov't never tells the public the whole. Just feeds us what they think we need to know. Hopefully this will be a dominoe effect for the good.
