I realise others have differing views but I still see yesterday as a good day!!

My main concern is the message we are sending to the developing world - and to terrorists in particular.  "It is simply not acceptable for you to murder, maim and slaughter in the name of your political or religious beliefs; but absolutely acceptable for us 'democrats' to do the same in the name of ours."

I COULD say that the Republicans were trying to get him before the Democrats, but I know that's not what you mean!!

I think the main difference - or THE difference, is that Bin Laden murdered thousands of INNOCENT people - whereas he was hardly that(!)
I'm genuinely struggling to understand why so many people aren't seeing this as a great thing! He's dead - that CAN only be good!?
