Honestly, I don't know what to say. Osama was killed and his body thrown into an ocean. Its like, okay he's dead, but what next? I'm sure Osama's supporters won't just sit by now. Really makes you wonder how far this could go.
I'll be honest, I made this topic solely because of that gif I found.
The idea of his death does worry me a little, I personally think killing him was a bit dumb. It'll cause retaliation but also brings up the whole "He killed people because of his believes that those people are bad. We killed him because are believes that said he was bad. Did we do the same thing he did?" thing.
I think capturing him and putting him on trial in front of the world at like the EU or something would have been a much better decision. Whatever, I don't make these calls.

I agree with trial and all that. When I saw how people were cheering for his death on t.v, I was like really... People are cheering for the death of someone? Osama was far off from Hitler (which btw lest us forget today for what happened in the past), and really, there's so many unanswered questions. We know Osama was trained by the CIA in the past to combat Russian influence in Afghanistan. But really, when 9/11 happened I just could not believe it was all Osama, and I still don't believe it was. There are still so many unanswered questions, but before I go all conspiracy like, I leave that for debate.
