Last night I was chatting with a colleague about Osama bin Ladens purported death. After nearly a decade, two wars, an over 81% increase in the military budget, thousands of deaths and disabilities, following the tragic loss of life on 9/11 this was a man who has been responsible for no less than a trillion dollars of additional spending for America's "safety".
I would like to see a picture or two. I bet you would too. There won't be an end to any of this for a long time. America needs to remain vigilant but I am more fearful of the Congresscritters and this President in putting the real hurt on this economy and this great nation.
Al Qaeda has vowed not to deviate from the path of armed struggle and said bin Laden's blood "is more precious to us and to every Muslim than to be wasted in vain."
"It (bin Laden's blood) will remain, with permission from Allah the Almighty, a curse that chases the Americans and their agents, and goes after them inside and outside their countries," the militant network said in a statement released on Islamist Internet forums and translated by SITE.
"Their happiness will turn into sorrow, and their blood will be mixed with their tears," al Qaeda said.
"We call upon our Muslim people in Pakistan, on whose land Sheikh Osama was killed, to rise up and revolt to cleanse this shame that has been attached to them by a clique of traitors and thieves ... and in general to cleanse their country from the filth of the Americans who spread corruption in it."
