It took less than 72 hours to upstage the Royal Wedding with real news.

I'm in New York and when the news hit last night, people poured into the street to celebrate. But, as celebratory as this news is, I don't see how it'll make much difference. He's dead, but the ideology of the movement he created still exists in many forms and in many places. AND is harder to squash.

How many stupid American are going to think this will end "terror"?
He hasn’t been active for years, killing him makes no difference, Our own people have killed many innocent people to do this revenge thing, total hypocrites, there’s very little to celebrate with this prize.
Would someone care to explain to me what the point of this was, why are people so happy?

I think many Americans know this is not the end of terror, however, his death is a step toward balancing the injustice of terrorist attacks carried out under his command in the US and around the world.

As to why people are so happy, I think an "anonymous Saudi" (quoted from a Reuters article) said it best - "He might have had a noble idea to elevate Islam but his implementation was wrong and caused more harm than good. I believe his death will calm people down and may dry up the wells of terrorism."

Of course, that's in the long term. In the short term, we'll have to deal with the increased threat of terrorism that his death will bring. It's only one battle in a very long war.

It'd have been better if he had been put on trial, but this is at least better than Bin Laden getting away altogether.

Having said that, the numbskulls above who believe that putting down a few more dictators and terrorist leaders will solve all the problems that these individuals thrive on are deluding themselves and others. The unrest in the entire North Africa - Western Asia area, Al Qaeda, tumbling strongman-dictators, they are all but symptoms of the underlying problems of poverty, oppression and fear.

Killing him shows that justice/revenge can reach anywhere, even to a heavily fortified compound in the heart of Pakistan. And it shows that justice doesn't have a time limit, that even 10 years after 9/11 Bin Laden has been made to pay for his crimes. I'm not keen to celebrate someone's death, but if anyone had it coming it was Bin Laden. So his death is justice/payback for his involvement in the deaths of over 2000 people, and it also *may* act as a deterrent to others who may think they're safe because they live far away from the terrorist acts they commit. Of course, it's not an end to terrorism, but if the alternative was to let him live out his days then that would've sent exactly the wrong message. I won't be losing much sleep over the evil bastard's death.
