    Good that he's finally dead, but it's going to make for interesting times in the near future

    Nothing is going to change.

    Oh yea. Didnt they say that there's a nuke in europe, hidden, and they will blow it up if osama gets caught or killed? Waiting for the 'slosion.. :)

    I've heard that too, but I find it very hard to believe. The idea that if they had a nuke in a major city and are just sitting on it just doesn't sound like the sort of restraint they'd be capable of. I may of course be wrong....but as long as its not Newcastle I'll be slightly happier about being wrong!

    I thought I'd feel more when he was killed. Having lived in NYC on 9/11. Having been at the wtc every day for 3 years.. but honestly I don't feel much about it yet.

    It is a form of justice, but that is about it. Bin Laden had effectively become irrelevant some time ago with the US basically winning the war against Bin Laden's version of Al-Qaida some time ago. At this point killing him off does little to change the situation as the "global terrorism" threat now takes the form of smaller, Al-Qaida franchises that are more independent, harder to track and generally less effective. It remains to be seen if the loss of the spiritual leader will cause these groups to begin to diminish over time.

    I agree with Freejack. I don't think much will change. There are plenty of other replacements out there now.
  • That reminds me of that specific scene in Zhadum....you know the one!

    And terrorism was never a problem again.
