Life is made up, not of great sacrifices or duties, but of little things, in which smiles and kindnesses and small obligations, given habitually, are what win and preserve the heart, and secure comfort.

Osama Bin Laden

This article really interested me.... As I was reading through the article it seemed like I was in a mystery movie or book! or even one of the shows you see on CIA.. with the CIA following one of Bin Laden's most trusted couriers and planning the perfect attack on the building where Bin Laden resided. As I read through this article the suspense just kept building and when I read the words "Of the five dead, one was a tall, bearded man with a bloodied face and a bullet in his head" I got the chills! This must be such a rewarding feeling for all of the US defense. However, this monumental event almost seems a little bittersweet.. Yes Bin Laden is dead, however, his network still remains... Is this going to be a situation where if you cut off the head of the network it will fail?... or will it grow two more heads?... Another concern is retaliation..... Bin Laden is dead, relieving some stress from American's but the stress of possible and probable retaliation is another stress we now have to deal with.... As cheesy and unrealistic as this sounds.. I truly just wish there were no issues and everyone could just get along!
