Only to Americans. Although I watched,appalled, I was not at all surprised.

I'm still a little confused about why the richest and most powerful nation on earth took ten years to catch some one they REALLY wanted. I would have thought reward of say $100 million and a new life for your entire family would have done it. Some Pakistani government official would have turned him in.

PS photos of Bin Laden's corpse will be released to gain maximum political advantage.

Im not sure how many of your guys got killed in that 9/11 attack. I havent run down the list according to countries visiting/working that day. All I know is a shit load of people have had justice served.

Thats it chaps. Hop out of those uniforms and lets meet at the pub for a well deserved toast to freedom and friendship

We lost some during the 7:7 London Bombings. One bus blew up and one train. Thing is, the very next day, Londoners carried on as if nothing happened. Still went on buses and trains. The message we sent out was that we will not show fear, we will not change our ways and that they'll have to do a lot better than that.
The terrorists failed. We carried on like normal the next day, unaffected.

We must not show fear, we must not let them affect our lives. As the sign says! -

Our media and government do just the opposite. I guess they figure people pumped full of fear 24/7 are easy to control and profit from.

That's why you have awesome comedian-driven rallies with thousands of people, some of whom hold signs like this:

Obama decides not to release Bin Laden photo. On the surface of it, I would say this is a less gratifying but more responsible decision.
