Eight Years After 9/11, Bin Laden Seems Closer To His Goals Than We Are
None of us will ever forget where we were and what we were doing that fateful morning eight years ago today, when the hijacked airliners flew into the World Trade Center towers in Manhattan. I was just leaving the house for work when my wife called out...Tags: Public Finance, Television, Saddam Hussein, Afghanistan, Wars and Interventions

Bin Laden 'bounce' helps, but Obama should remember 1992
Killing Osama bin Laden is a strange way to start a presidential campaign season, but that's where we are.
Now, bin Laden wasn't taken out for partisan political reasons. Nor was his death ultimately a partisan policy. With only the most cartoonish...Tags: Republican Party, Executive Branch, Barack Obama, Government, Muammar Gaddafi

Tuesday morning talkers: Bill Ayers, Black panther craziness, and a free gun with every TV
On weekday mornings, I'll post the most controversial, shocking and (of course) ridiculous stories for your reading pleasure. That way, when you walk into work, you'll be the master of witty conversation. National • War in Libya costs $600...Tags: ABC (tv network), Joe Biden, Libya, Bill Ayers, Donald Trump

Religious terrorism didn't start, won't end with bin Laden
In evaluating Osama bin Laden's dubious legacy, it is important to note that there was nothing new about religiously inspired terrorism when this rich Saudi exile convened a small group of jihadists in his Peshawar, Pakistan, home in 1988 to found al-...Tags: Mass Media, Los Angeles Times, Al-Qaeda, Armed Conflicts, National Security

A boost for Obama, a bust for Pakistan
Only in America would a president respond to the public celebrating over the killing of Osama bin Laden with the sports cliche he used: "We don't need to spike the football."
But millions of Americans who have their eyes glued on gridirons across the...Tags: Abraham Lincoln, Al-Qaeda, Barack Obama, Television, Pakistan

Mission accomplished; bring the troops home
At long last, Osama bin Laden is gone. I'll never forget the horror of September 11th, and I am relieved this monster of terrorism has been dispatched. It was about time. Now that our mission has been accomplished, it's time to bring our troops home from...Tags: Maryland

Can the U.S. still trust Pakistan?
Osama bin Laden's death in Pakistan last week at the hands of Navy SEALs was a moral and symbolic victory for the U.S., but it complicated the already tense relationship between the Obama administration and Islamabad. The feeling in Washington is that the...Tags: Death of Osama bin Laden (2011), U.S. Military, Taliban, Barack Obama, National Security

Bin Laden got justice
Dan Rodricks argues that killing bin Laden was not "justice" ("Bin Laden death: Call it execution, not 'justice,'" May 5). "Justice" is an interesting ideal, but it has never been seen or rendered in the annals of man. No two people could agree...Tags: Death of Osama bin Laden (2011)

After bin Laden, a time for reflection
Mark Frank's letter explains perfectly why the celebrations following bin Laden's death displayed a disheartening lack of civility among too many of our fellow citizens ("Bin Laden death no reason to celebrate," May 4). In stark contrast, a disturbing...Tags: Multi-Sport Events, Death of Osama bin Laden (2011), United States Naval Academy, Super Bowl

Real Muslim leadership, not a terrorist's death, would be something to celebrate
Good riddance, Osama bin Laden.
That's one less terrorist I, as a Muslim American, have to worry about ruining my life. But while people filled the streets in Times Square and Pennsylvania Avenue with joy Sunday night, I'm looking at myself in the...Tags: Death of Osama bin Laden (2011), Times Square, Nelson Mandela, Civil Unrest, Philosophy

Bin Laden was a legitimate military target
Dan Rodricks is correct in maintaining that Osama bin Laden did not receive justice through the legal system ("Bin Laden death: Call it execution, not justice," May 4). Bin Laden did, however, get justice in the sense that he got what was coming to him....Tags: Death of Osama bin Laden (2011), Timonium, World War II (1939-1945), Al-Qaeda, Attack on Pearl Harbor (1941)

Do they really expect us to believe bin Laden is dead?
Does anyone believe Osama bin Laden is dead? He supposedly died in 2007, we've heard nothing since, then all of a sudden he's dead again. This would not be the first time the government misrepresented the facts. Are we suppose to believe a president...Tags: Death of Osama bin Laden (2011), Linthicum, Elections
