No, Bin Ladins death is not a cure all to any terriorism. It will continue as evil continues. However we have effectively put a giant hole in the wall of evil and terrorism. I do celebrate his death. It was what was needed. To have captured him would have been terrible as there would have been so much reprisal by members of his group. His burial at sea according to Muslim tradition was effective and fast.

I am very pleased with what happened and I rejoice as an American. Evil is evil. Note also that I live six miles from D.C. and wish I could have been at the White House last nite to celebrate a victory for America. Am I afraid now as some people have asked....well, no more then usual. I was in Florida when 9/11 happened. My daughter was in D.C. by the pentagon. You must also remember Florida was where the pilots were trained...to fly...to fly only but not to land....

It is time for peace as the Pope said following his news that Bin Laden was dead.
