Summary:
Osama bin Laden was the most wanted guy in American history-an enemy who brought america what President George W. Bush known as “a day of fire,” and ushered in a fresh period of terrorism. It required ten years of blood and sacrifice, of perseverance and disappointment, but finally, inside a nighttime raid at the end of the dirt street in Pakistan, the hunt for Bin Laden ended using a gunshot. It had been a dramatic climax to an extended and painful chapter.
But now what? The terrorist threat which has defined about Beyond Bin Laden: America and the Future of Terror American policy since the attacks of 9/11 didn’t pass away with Bin Laden in his walled chemical substance near Islamabad. Radicals still wish us harm, and we should fight on.
