Osama Bin Laden: dead

[Bike Writer]

The cheering and honking went on a long time, I think. It's not something I would do, but I can understand why people feel the need for an emotional outpouring. They even had the bagpipers down there.

I don't like the carnival-like atmosphere that develops on the 9/11 anniversaries, either, but it's not about me and it's a very trivial problem in the great scheme of things.

To our TE friends from the States and places where the effects of the horror of September 11, 2001 was felt deeper than to the average citizen, you have seen the promise that was made to bring the perpertrator to justice fulfilled. This in itself sends a strong message, that we will fullfill our duty to protect our citizens, no matter who the commander in chief is. The President who made this promise and the President who fullfilled it are to be commended for their duty to the protect their citizens.

The country who harbored him is also complicit in the matter. We give billions to Pakistan, we might want to rethink that now that there is proof that he was living there. His crimes were not only against US citizens, they were crimes against humanity as evidenced by those who stand shoulder to shoulder with us in this fight. A big thanks to those countries who stand up against terrorists. Bullies don't care who the target is, they just live to bully. And now this guy won't do that anymore.
