I won't go into much detail about the wedding, as I summed it all up just the other day, but it seems that going from this obviously happy, enjoyable, and spirit lifting day, people have greeted the news of Bin Ladens death with 'mixed emotions'. I feel that's the best term to describe it, as everyone is certainly happy that this symbol of terrorism has now gone, but then when people realise that they are celebrating because someone has deliberately been killed, that's where things begin to get confusing. I'm not saying that this outcome was not a good thing, its just, having not been as closely linked to the 9/11 bombings, I need more time to process this news, especially after having gone through the hype of the royal wedding a couple of days before hand.
Would like to add quickly though, to all the american people and others around the world, that I know this outcome has been a long time coming, and even though it has taken this long, it does seem to be a hugh relief. I'm also glad, especially for the familys of people involved that you now have some sense of justice and closure. Hopefully we will be able to see what this weekend results, in the coming weeks
