It's been announced that Obama is about to deliver a speech at 10:30 that Osama has been killed during a U.S. operation. I'm having a difficult time believing that after all this time, that monster has been killed. Well, back to the news for me. Leo: edited; c'mon, let's not get flagged by the FBI or anything because of a typo |

I do have a big problem with the partying all throughout the night at Time Square and near the White House. First of all, most of the people the news networks showed were kids, they barely had any recollection of the 9/11 events, they were just looking for a reason to party. Second, (and this is what sticks with me) on 9/11 one of the events that I remember is the supporters of Osama dancing in the street when the towers came down. Why do we want to give them that much PR ammo? |

Krby, my reaction was similar to yours. This is not a sporting event, and celebrating is distasteful and disgusting. What are the people who are cheering/chanting thinking? Relief and even satisfaction would be normal responses, but joy? It would have been better had this been treated as any capture/killing of any criminal instead of giving Osama bin Laden such attention and importance that the President felt he needed to make the announcement himself. |

Get over yourself. The fucker needed to die and people are happy (HAPPY, THRILLED, OVERCOME WITH JOY) that he is dead. Who cares if people were dancing in the streets? This guy was Public Enemy #1 for the fucking WORLD. He wasn't "any criminal," he was Osama bin Laden. Of course the President is going to announce it himself. George Bush would have announced it.

It's cost how many American and foreign civilian lives? This is a somber moment, not a happy one. We claim these people are uncivilized barbarians, and that we're coming to offer them enlightenment and free them from the terrorist regimes, but now they get to see us doing the exact same thing, and you wonder why there are folks willing to strap explosives to their backs in the name of this assclown's version of God. It's no wonder this cycle of bullshit will continue when we continue to celebrate the violence of it all. We're not talking the end of WWII here, where it had an impact on a global scale (keep in mind they were celebrating the end of the violence, not the violence itself). The only global scale impact Osama had was the one we created for him after seriously overreacting to a terrible and unfortunate event. |

I'm not upset that he died (in fact, I'm an admitted sociopathic misanthrope most of the time). I'm upset at our reaction, and our lack of perspective about it all. That mindset is far more damaging than anything this idiot did, or could have done. |

More people are going to die falling down their stairs this year than died from terrorist attacks on US soil. I'm not upset about folks being "happy" about the event. I'm upset that this is ONLY thing they're going to learn from all of this. Over the course of the long term, there's going to be another BAD GUY that Uncle Sam has to blow his bugle and go slay. We're so focused on vengeance that we're not examining our foreign policy or the overall cost of kneejerk reaction and overhype of a single individual, who at the end of the day, was little more than a figurehead of an ideology. The impact of this on "global terror" is negligible. All we did was create a matyr that will inspire the next nutjob who wants to kill us (or bankrupt us, whichever comes first). |

I didn't say anything about the president's announcement of OBL being dead. Like I said, I am glad that he is dead. I was in shock at first then smiled that he was gone. I just wish there was not dancing in the streets when it was announced (and those parties did start mighty quickly...) What is the difference between us dancing in the streets when OBL was announced dead and the OBL supporters dancing in the streets when the towers fell? We are supposed to be better than those that commit terror. When Hitler died that signaled the END of Nazi Germany. With OBL dead that is not the END of al Qaeda or terrorism against western countries |

Sorry, I just don't think we should be celebrating anyone's death - Osama, Saddam, Stalin, Manson, McVeigh, Bundy, Gary Ridgway (Green River Killer), Castro (I know Manson and last two are not dead yet). The people listed above are evil. The world is a better place with them not in it (or soon to be not in it). Prancing around in a "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" does nothing. Remember those that lost their lives at the hands of evil. Be relieved that others won't have to suffer at their hands. Make the world a better place so that evil is not able to be as successful as it has been. I'll shut up now. |

It's worth noting that Osama is/was a military target. There would be no cheering in the streets if we found an apartment complex that housed the families of Al Qaeda fighters and killed them all. There are many differences in cheering the 9-11 attack and cheering for this, but that is the one that strikes me right away. I don't want to get bogged down in back and forth "we should be celebrating...no...we should be somber" (I believe everyone can feel however the hell they want about it!), but I did see the comparison to us cheering this vs the 9-11 cheering a few times above and though it was appropriate to point out how different the 2 correlating events were. |

krby71 wrote: yes, Jox's comment "What is the difference between Osama Bin Laden and the people who were killed in the twin towers?" really made me think. I can tell you one thing that wasn't different: In both cases, the only solution considered was "We need to kill it/them/evil." with little regard to policies of minimization (without moderate Muslim vilipendation) on our end, and a lack of understanding American intent in the Middle East. It was our arrogance in using these people as a tool to fight the Soviet occupation (with little regard to health of the populace). It was Bin Laden's arrogance to believe that after removing the Soviets that it was Allah's will that he purge his holy land of all invaders. It was his arrogance that made him believe that the destruction visited upon his area of the world by the "Crusaders, Colonialists and Communists" justified his jihad with an eye for an eye response on our soil and others. When Khobar Towers was attacked, I lost two HC-130 crew I knew personally. On one occasion, one of these individuals helped me avoid what would have likely been a fatal mistake during a training drop. I wanted more than nothing else to see these individual avenged for such senseless violence. As a advanced further in my career, and saw what generations of hate and misunderstanding can do to a culture, and the associated deaths, I realized that nothing could bring these men back. And nothing could make me feel better about their deaths. The cycle of violence and lack of understanding in the name of nationalism or religion is one of the scariest things in existence. There is no weapon ever conceived in all of mankind's history that can compare to a man's arrogance that his is righteous and his resolve to wield that power accordingly. Do I feel bad that he's dead? Not in the least. Do I feel righteous? Not in the least. If we put this level of effort and media attention into working to understand other cultures, and learning to deal with them from a relative perspective (we don't need to agree with, or condone, them) we'd be far better protected today. Instead, I think we'll see another month of circle jerk about how we cut the head off of those crazy Islamist Arab fuckhead barbarians...until the next guy comes along (Mullah Omar maybe?). |

I don't think it is a cause for celebration of "victory". 10 years, 2.5 wars, 900,000+ deaths, and $1,000,000,000,000+ dollars later...that's a hell of a price to have paid to be happy about the death of one man. I am glad it did happen finally and he didn't just die of old age, though. I dunno. It is a definitely a mixed bag of emotions for me personally. |

| Post subject: | Re: Osama dead |
Just a few quick thoughts... This is the kind of victory that has the potential to make a huge impact. Killing bin Laden may or may not be a huge win of its own (in terms of the impact to Al Qaeda), but the sentiment felt in America about the action could have profound impact and the loads of intelligence recovered from the scene could have serious implications for the terrorist organization and any future plots. There's often a fine line between what can be considered decorous and what can't. Yes, bin Laden was a military target (and lots of other things) and Americans should feel justified, and yeah, maybe even glad about his death. But at some point, celebrating a person's death marginalizes the seriousness of the killing, the lives affected by that person, and even, perhaps, killing in general. Of course, where that point is often differs for each of us -- depending especially on how personally you were impacted by his actions. Personally, I don't feel at all celebratory about it. Sure, I'm glad he's dead, more for my country's wellbeing than my own, but more than anything else, I'm just shocked. After almost 10 years, I really didn't expect it'd ever happen. |

That's just a list of the most notable names. |

I'm not shedding any tears about Obama's death, but the outright rejoicing seems a little... hasty. Then again, I'm probably overly skeptical when I see thousands of lemmings following the same beat. He got what he deserved, no question. I'd have much preferred he stand trial, regardless of the time/monetary cost, if for no other reason than as a display that we offered him what he did not offer thousands - a truer sense of justice than most offered in ages past, and even if imperfect the defendant might be offered some level of fairness and objectiveness. On the other note, I'd love to see more good news about Obama, but it's just short-sighted for anyone to suggest that he had any kind of claim on the actions that brought Osama down. This was no doubt an intelligence-gathering operation that spanned years to bring it to this finality. From the initial reports I've had time to read, the SEAL team performed admirably and each military division worked hand in hand to coordinate things incredibly and effectively. Obama didn't have anything to do with that. He pushed a button that said "go" after everyone did the gruntwork, that's it. The same is true for any suggestion that Bush shared credit as well. |
