What does Bin Laden's death mean for the War on Terror?

At long last, the principal target in the War on Terror, Osama Bin Laden, has been killed by Navy Seals. Does this mean we are done? Can we bring our troops home from Afghanistan now? Should we send the same seal team in to find the elusive WMD in Iraq?

While President Obama and his military/intelligence leaders enjoy this moment of victory, the decisions that come from this point forward may be even more important than Bin Laden's death.

2. Yes. Lots of people are saying similar things today.

I see that your blind link goes to your blog. Why use a blind link? Lots of people won't click on them, for fear of malware. DU handles URLs just fine.

4. Hmmm....

Are you referring to the shortened link to the article? I use it when I post it to twitter, so I have always just used it everywhere else.

If you believe it would be better, I will certainly post the original link.

Thanks for the heads up, and for reading.
