Post by: plavelil on May 02, 2011, 05:15:21 am: The images of 9/11 is one particular event that will stick in our minds no matter how many years have passed, it has given a disastrous message. But now the question is the assassination of Bin Laden - is it over or do you guys think this can give a rise to other problems ????

Post by: bulono on June 02, 2011, 03:10:47 am: it depends on how political leaders react....the operation carried out by US army in Pakistan clearly shows that US can carry out such operations in the name of peace and stability...but who knows what their real intentions are...Pakistan is already in a bad situation and killing of Osama has done no good to Pakistan instead it has worsened the situation...Pakistan has been a key ally to US against the Taliban and Al qaeda and has supported the US by providing supply route to Afghanistan and carrying out operations against Militants on their side of the border...by carrying out such operations it seems as though they are provoking the Pakistani population against them...but its all politics and its really hard to know the intentions of a country....hope the situation gets well soon...it has been going on for oo long...think about what may be going through the local people in Afghanistan

Post by: bulono on June 07, 2011, 10:55:07 am: the war is still going on which was started about 10 years ago...no new war is going to start simply because osama has died....

Post by: dragon_knight on June 08, 2011, 09:26:26 am: it will certainty cause another war to happen. another similar to 911 incident.
well... i'm living in east asia so the new war is not likely to affect me, but i surely dont want it to happen.
if bin laden is not killed, 911 is going to happen again in anytime.
if bin laden is killed, 911 is going to happen again, only that the time line may be shifted to earlier.
so obama faces a dilemma. the killing might be due to the presidential election next year in US.

a terrorist is killed by another terrorist. no offense to americans.

Post by: astarmathsandphysics on August 03, 2011, 01:24:00 pm: It was an assasinatioon like any other.
Like Israel does in Gaza, or the UK did in Norther Irelnad.
They are raising the bar for retaliation,which will come.
One day we will all be forced to deal with each other in a mudpit.
