    My concern is that this event will trigger retaliation. I hope we are sufficiently prepared and safeguarded against most threats.

    I guy I spoke to today said he thinks the whole thing is a sham.


    When I asked, "You mean, Al Kaida gave the US a fake Bin Laden, or do you mean the US is lying about having killled him?"


    he said, "Both!"

    GoodBye to that pile of crap. There is some satisfaction to know that he got a personal meeting with a member of the US black OPS community...

    I know this is a minority point of view, but I just saw this quote which captures my feelings about this killing than my own words could.


    "I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

    I think this is the best post I have seen in this forum though it's not about photography. sadly enough we have to face the reality. I only hope our kids-if there will be a winner of this war- will learn something from that.
