imho, war breeds war. there are no winners. i believe much of the reaction resembles hitler's death. he was just a person but a person whose agenda was frightening and violent to the wellbeing of our world, imo. re osama and history i do believe the outcome will be the same. there's no way i can comprehend peoples who have such vengence on mankind as a whole. there's no way that justifies their actions toward others of different color, spiritual beliefs, or country.
the death of bin laden is not going to change things in the big picture. but i do believe he was symbolic to myself and others that evil exists. yes i believe evil exists here too but in my previous reply in this thread i stated what my pdoc said too me. to overcome the evils in this world we should set the example of goodness and kindness towards others regardless of other's actions. some have commented on not feeling they should rejoice in anyone's death, including his. i don't rejoice either but taking under consideration that my opinion is just my opinion i am unable to judge others who feel differently.
