"Osama Bin Laden is dead." I wasn't sure when we would ever be able to honestly say this but now we can. I've waited a long time for this to happen and now that it has, it feels exactly how I thought it would, great. This man was responsible for the death of thousands of civilians, as well as those of soldiers sent to Afghanistan in response to the attacks on September 11, 2001. For this reason, I have no problem with people rejoicing his death. I was so happy about it I was going to skip class and celebrate with everyone. The only thing that would have made this better is if I was the one who got to pull the trigger. As far as the affect this will have on President Obama's administration, I believe it will be a positive impact. Although the mission was performed and organized by soldiers and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he is still the commander-in-chief for the U.S. Military and will be recognized for it. I personally feel this is one of the biggest blows to the Al-Qaeda organization. However, he was still only one man and terrorism isn't over. More than likely there will be retaliations and the cycle will continue. The simple explanation of why I was happy about his death is because I am an American. Anyone who wasn't happy I ask the question, "Have you forgotten?"
