Incidentally, I thought it was an excellent speech, carefully worded with the right tone

Transcript of President Obama’s Speech on the death of Osama bin Laden

Favourite part:

As we do, we must also reaffirm that the United States is not –- and never will be -– at war with Islam. I’ve made clear, just as President Bush did shortly after 9/11, that our war is not against Islam. Bin Laden was not a Muslim leader; he was a mass murderer of Muslims. Indeed, al Qaeda has slaughtered scores of Muslims in many countries, including our own. So his demise should be welcomed by all who believe in peace and human dignity.

I generally respect the life and dignity of my fellow man

But watching and reading about the death of Osama bin Laden, I have to admit to--satisfaction, and a feeling of justice served. I am very curious as to what the reactions around the world will be, whether terror attacks increase or decrease, what this means in the long run, the impact of this man's death. There has been such a high cost in lives, in resources, and in freedoms to bring us to this day. May tomorrow somehow dawn a better day without such a dangerous mass-murderer and hatemonger in our world.
