As I was playing EQ2 on Sunday night, someone shouted out over the chat lines that Osama Bin Laden was dead. I quickly googles this and saw it was true. I was glued to my TV and Twitter account. Holy crap.. the bastard was dead. Shot in the head while hiding behind two women. Yup, that's a leader to be proud of. I am glad the American people (and the families of anyone who has lost someone because of this nut job) has justice, but my fear is... is he now a Martyr? The people who follow him will now be even more enraged and have more hatred towards the American People. This worries me as I have American friends and travel several times a year to the US to visit friends there.
I thought Obama's speech was great, brought a tear to this Canuk. I remember clearly 9-11 ... scrabbling for hours trying to get in touch with a friend who worked near the Pentagon.. getting evacuated from my building as it was an Oil and Gas company in a big companies building... No one knew what was happening, seeing the footage of people jumping from the towers. It was awful. I am glad he gone from this world now, I just wish his death wasn't so swift, those people in the towers and planes suffered, some for hours...
