Just a thought for those of you who disbelieve, I see Al Jazzera or even the internet has no speeches from Bin Laden. Maybe the US got it right.
Anyway back to my Champagne, a good day for the world.
I thought I would just point out the fact that MargaretR has posted 21 posts to this thread.....while I have posted 10(well, 11 if you count this one).

I don't disbelieve the reports that he is dead.......I'm just not sure that this was the right way to deal with him.
The news bulletin said that he had been buried at sea to prevent his grave becoming a place for pilgrimage....but won't the place where he was killed become a focus for that pursuit?

I think that him being killed is like the killing of the mythical Hydra.......other heads will grow in its place.......and the muslim fanatics and terrorists will just seek to avenge his death.
