What Does It All Mean?

What does the death of Osama Bin Laden really mean? Are we to believe that Bin Laden's death will produce a repeal of and quell the effects of the Patriot Act? Are we to believe that the U.S. will finally bring the troops home from Afghanistan and Pakistan? Are we to believe that the so-called war on terror has been won and the enemy has been defeated? With the celebrated death of the boogeyman will we see a new jihadist terror group pop up? It is my opinion that Osama Bin Laden has been dead for months, this has been labeled as a conspiracy, which is fine. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. One thing is for certain, his death doesn't really matter. The victory of Bin Laden's death is symbollic to the thousands of people who lost their lives on that dreadful day, it too is symbollic to the Obama administration because he was supposedly killed on Obama's watch, but it will not bring about peace although it may very well bring about. The ramifications of Osama Bin Laden being declared deceased is that now there is room to take away more civil liberties from U.S. citizens in the name of terror alerts and watches while being under the guise of national security. Be wary people, be wary.....
