My thoughts on Bid Laden.

As an ex-American soldier, I can also say that I too have been torn by this excursion to other lands. On one hand, I know the power of a good leader.

We all want a good strong multinational CEO keeping the profit flowing, people employed, food on the table for thousands, sections of the economy inflated, etc. On the other hand, it almost seems like our entire military turned into a bunch of mercenaries out to catch one guy and surgically remove all he stood for like a fungus. In a marvel comic fashion I can only say, “with great power comes great responsibility” and I believe a serious violation of power has occurred.  As an American still with the desire for vengeance deep within me, all I have to say is that I too would have pulled the trigger w/o thinking twice, and I suspect the same from most New Yorkers I know. I thank our president for reminding the country that many people including Muslims have been ruthlessly killed under the leadership style this person created.
