Global War on Terror RIP Posted by Michael Cohen

Let me start off by saying that I am really glad Osama bin Laden is dead. He attacked my hometown, he murdered my good friend, Brock Safronoff and his actions led to the deaths of many more Americans and far more Muslims. Good riddance to him and the blight that he represented on humanity.

Now with that out of the way, here's my hastily crafted piece for World Politics Review on why the death of bin Laden could mean an end to the war on terrorism:

While the death of Osama bin Laden represents the long overdue demise of one man, its impact on the long-term trajectory of American foreign policy is likely to be more profound: Along with bin Laden, so too dies the "global war on terrorism." This does not mean that there are no longer any terrorists who want to kill Americans and other Westerners. Neither does it mean that al-Qaida will simply disappear overnight. And another major attack could return the U.S. and its allies to a war footing.

But bin Laden's death does mean that the exaggerated role that terrorism has played in America's foreign policy discussions for the past 10 years can finally come to an end. Osama bin Laden, for better or worse, was the face of the terrorist threat to America. As long as he was at large, not only would the war on terrorism remain seemingly unfinished in the eyes of the American people, but the threat would remain viscerally real -- even though from all accounts his operational role in al-Qaida had diminished. With his death, the terrorism narrative that has held this country in its thrall for 10 terrible years has taken a rather significant and perhaps fatal hit.

. . . For 10 long years the American people allowed the deaths of 3,000 of their fellow citizens -- and the possibility of additional deaths -- to justify squandering blood, treasure and policymaking attention on a breathtaking scale. Sunday night, the life of a nihilistic, pyschopathic and deranged terrorist came to an end. That his death might signal the beginning of the end of our own national bloodletting makes the news all the better.

Yes, bin Laden dead, usa people and all over world people should be happy.

[Business Loans]

Have you ever tried to question yourself on these matters?
It's true that Osama was a great threat for everyone, but do you seriously think his Death can put an end to all of this? Many more will become like him, follow his steps and belief.
How about the Sept 11 attack, Are we sure that Osama was the One responsible for that? If he is, are we sure that he alone is responsible for that. Was there no conspiracies?
Did we even try to think what the real reason for Osama's actions - His purpose was obviously not about for money or personal business. For powerful countries War is Business - The economic demand for weapon will increase as long as there is war thus The Tax demand for us citizens will also increase for the weapon industry of a country or should I say weapon Business of what we call Gods of this modern day - do we realize this?
I would rather think of Osama as a puppet who's being manipulated and used as an excuse to make money and risk the lives US marines. I'm sure we people are more clever than this - we are just afraid to speak out and seek for the awful truth.

[wholesale sexy lingerie]

I am rapidly approaching the conclusion that the Obama administration is incapable of any subterfuge or cleverness, and simply botched the aftermath of the SEAL's wonderful operation -- all in the interest of political expediency. I think that they are more like the horse than the one leading the horse.

They have their roots in the Chicago political machine. But that isn't subtle politics; it is heavy-handed power politics that relies on good old blackmail and arm twisting and stealing of votes, etc. They simply don't have the intellectual capacity to do anything clever!

Rightness with a capital "R" is my rendering of the Chinese i , which I also translate as Justice, according to the context. Although not quite as essential a concept as humaneness, it is a strongly internalized human capacity. Being attuned to Rightness allows people to do the proper thing in the proper situation, to give each person, place and thing its proper due.

I believe that this war is far from coming to an end. It's just a vicious cycle where the terrorists will carry out an attack and that is prone to be responded by the government bodies.

Women mostly donned cocktail dresses in the evenings to elegant events or special evening events. Although still regarded as formal-wear, several ladies have been using this dress in various ways. Late afternoon and early evening gatherings and events have become ideal venues to wear these dresses. You should select a cocktail dress that appears stylish. You must ensure that it's fashionable and fit for your body type. Don't assume all women could put on every kind of formal dress. A number of dress designs exist to fit every physique. Although a few ladies could pass as a supermodel, most possess a typical shape.These dresses are available in all colors just like pinks, red, black, orange, blue, brown, and so on.The light pink cocktail dresses and black pink cocktail dresses are the most popular cocktail dresses in the trends of 2011.IF you want to dance , i suggest you to choose the short cocktail dresses,like white short cocktail dresses or cute short cocktail dresses ,it is will make you looks stunning in the party that you join in.

These cocktail dresses suit perfectly at weddings, prom, night time party, holiday seasons, etc. No other dress can meet their sophistication and romance. But all depends on your individual style and what expression you want. Provocative look is a trend in fashion that each woman aspires for. To achieve that look, wear your dress appropriately. These complementing and trendy cocktail dresses offer a captivating feel of romance in you. When looking for a formal outfit, women should consider their body type. Get a dress that complements your entire shape. The ideal formal put on will emphasize a girl's figure and move focus on the areas that are most flattering. Displaying some skin at the neckline will draw focus to the bosom. A V-neck or some other plunging neckline is just the ticket. Less coverage at the very top in fact reveals a lot more. This type of gown may be emphasized with a bubbled hemline. Ladies can select from earrings, bracelets, necklaces, chokers, and evening bags. The need for a choker or necklace can be determined by the neckline of the dress. Preferably, a lady should begin with the dress itself to ensure that she is aware of what accents will go perfect with it. Having a few simple accents, any girl can appear stylish in a cocktail dress.
