As an American, do you feel safer now that Usama Bin Laden is dead? How much do you trust your government after the story unfolds about the operation? Do you feel good about your government essentially assassinating someone no matter how vile that person was? Revenge can feel good but at what cost? Are we any better dancing in the streets after killing Bin Laden than the Middle Eastern cavemen were when political Islam murdered 3,000 fellow citizens? I'm not sure how I feel about millions of Americans acting like apes after we assassinated Bin Laden. At once I am glad he is dead but I am also not sure I'm proud of our government. Who will we assassinate next?
Sure it's cool to think about the SEALs doing their thing but Americans should be better morally I think. Don't get me wrong, the SEALs did the job their commanders asked of them. They are badasses. But what was the point? We spent trillions of dollars for this one man. I'm sorry but we have had Al Qaeda neutralized for 9 years. Guess what? There are more immediate problems than a neutered Al Qaeda like Hammas and Muslim Brotherhood.
I realize that we have been fighting wars for 10 years but our government can't even bring themselves to say they are at war with (radical) Islam. We are engaged in a "kinectic military action." So what do you think, does political Islam think they are at war with the west like Bin Laden said or do they appreciate the Obama appeasement strategy of the "kma"? Political correctness does not work on any level. Muslims are still pissed today even after a supposed respectful burial after blowing Bin Laden's face off.
I am ready to bring home all the troops. The special forces dudes can go down and do their thing on the violent Mexican border. There are plenty of opportunities to practice their craft down there while at the same time protecting our borders. Politically that can't happen because god forbid we insult Latinos who might vote for the shitheads in office.
If a Muslim country asks for our assistance they can pay for the protection. If Israel is bothered by Lebanon or Egypt or Iran then we bomb the shit out of the offenders. We leave you alone. You leave us (and Israel) alone.
You know, I get why Americans were happy, happy, joy, joy with the demise of Bin Laden. We have had nothing to be happy about for about 4 years. Bush and Obama have been the worst thing to happen to this country. At least Bush loves his country. Obama sees nothing exceptional about America. That is the reason for the celebration. We FINALLY had something to be proud of. I want this country to kick ass. I want this country to be the best. For some reason Obama does not and prefers mediocrity.
Anyway, back to the original question, no I do not feel safer. I do not trust my government. I believe that our liberties will further erode AFTER the Bin Laden assassination.
You know, Bush captured Saddam Hussein. Hussein was put on trial. He was publicly hung. Muslims witnessed the arrest, trial and the death. No problems. Muslims constantly are releasing videos showing their sport of cutting off people's head. But for some reason Obama can't even release a photo of the hole in Bin Laden's face. Hell, they should release the video from the SEALs helmet cams as pay-per-view and use the proceeds to either pay down the debt or give to the Wounded Warrior Project.
And it is interesting how excited the left are over Obama's "leadership". For years they excoriated Bush for his Middle East war but now that Obama is in charge of the empire they are pissing themselves with joy. This country is completely screwed.
