in the last two days at work. not ONE person has brought the Bin Laden story up with me. thats how much people give a shit about AQ and bin laden here.
arabs and muslim got over bin laden long ago.....after he screwed them over by forcing america's hand who took away their civil rights, their liberties, their freedom to travel without being questioned, their freedom to travel on public transport without being heckled and abused, by killing their brothers and sisters via collateral damage, by imprisoning their family members for looking and acting middle eastern. Bin Laden is despised because he brought hardship to his own people. People here got over him long ago. I posted elsewhere that Al Jazeera isnt even dedicating its broadcasts to this story 100% of the time! its not really a big deal, and its not going to change anything in the scheme of things. it certainly hasnt changed my life now that he's gone. I'll probably still get picked out of an air port line to be randomly checked. i dont expect that to change. i have mr OBL to thank for that.
But I just wish that those americans that find the death of one man something to celebrate, that they get over Bin Laden like the arabs have and move on.
