I remember 9/11 very well--and as I became so interested in USB--I started reading as many books as I could get my hands on about how they think--why they attacked us versus their other two targets, etc. which was 9/11.

The head of the snake has been cut off--and congratulations to President Barack Obama to make that decision when some in his adminstration were against it. This nation has a reason to celebrate. The head of the snake has finally been cut off.

But the question we see from ALL networks--is who is going to take Bin Laden's place. My answer after all these years and what I have read is. NO ONE.

They are defeated--there are no other generals or terrorists co-ops to take Bin Laden's place. They simply do not THINK or plan like anything like us. We are a different breed--and most of them "the fighters" come from what we know as the 13th century.

They're have lost their leader--or the poster boy of terroismn--and now their done.

They had U.S navy special forces sticking a gun right in USB's face in the best stealth attack ever known to man--"instead of bombing" and this is one thing that terrorist's actually RESPECT. It's over.
I really wish I could agree with you as it would be nice to conclude that muslim or islamic radicalism will fade away. The reality is there is no real evidence to support anything you have come up with. For one, Osama Bin Laden is not the first person in the world to conclude that his faith allows for terrorism against one's "enemies." Second, al Qaeda is not the only organization out there determined to cause harm to Israel, the US, quite a few countries in Europe, and other targets. Third, al Qaeda and even sister organizations around the globe are still around. And last, there is no real assurance that just because of Osama's death there will be any real change in attitudes towards other governments, such as ours, that often are the prerequisite for one to then join others determined to do something about it.

For the most part, we all agree this was a key victory in a fight against those determined to bring harm to the US and our allies. We do have the right to celebrate what has been accomplished. Understand I am not trying to diminish the impact of Osama's death, just trying to be realistic with your conclusions of what it means. We also mostly seem to agree (a reference to the other post on this subject of Osama's death) that this is a real victory for the military and our government. However, no one is operating under the assumption that it is all done and the snake is dead. If anything we already have plenty of evidence to support that our own country has already warned us to even be more diligent and observing of our actions especially when traveling. It is not over, it was however a good victory in a long term and still existing fight. No one necessarily has to take Osama's place.
