Is the world a safer place now that Bin-laden is gone?. I doubt it,but that wouldn't stop the US and everyone from proclaiming huge victory for freedom and democracy. Personally I don't see anything democratic about the execution of a prisoner without trial. But hey, he murdered 5,000 + civilians so that's alright then isn't it?.
It is too soon to say that the world is a safer place without Osama Bin Laden. Indeed, in the short term it may be more dangerous, with the risk of revenge attacks by his followers.
My stand point on the whole issue is that the world isn't necessarily safer but better, in the sense that a message has been sent to all terrorist out there that no matter how long it takes,they shall be brought to justice. Which makes the world a better place.
what do you think? FACE IT : (Al Qaeda is not like the IRA or other organized militia around the world fighting a cause. They are an ideological army fighting in small disorganised groups, with no real leadership per Se. So does the death of Bin laden really mean anything?)
Osama's death might not wish the future well. Personally, i see no difference between now and then (when he was alive) because the Alqaeda isn't a one-man organisation. They are a body of armed individuals pursuing the same set-goals, and a loss wouldn't slow down any set plans. But then , it is a good sign- Justice prevailed.
