Death of a Symbol

I may have laughed a bit too much about that previous link


The death of Osama bin Laden may be largely symbolic but it is an overwhelmingly powerful symbolism.  The thugs of the organization he founded in al-qaeda have taken too much of the focus away from the billions of peaceful Muslims around the world.  I do hope his death can somehow undo that injustice.    


I know his death will not do much for the war on terror.  I also hope that it isn't waved as a flag come campaigns.   This also isn't celebratory, only hopeful.
