Wishing No Man's Death Yet Enjoying Their Obituary
This week the world has seen the death of one of it's enemies. The death of the most hated person since Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden's death drew cheers from most of the world and bragging rights from most of America. However you see this death it is execution plain and simple. In a lot of the world Capital Punishment via the death penalty is not allowed yet those same countries enjoyed reading Bin Laden's obituary.
Don't misunderstand my feeling about Mr Laden's death. The world is better off that this man is no longer on this earth but cheering, boasting and shouting I did not do. It was simply "Justice Served". Killing is killing! Sometimes it is necessary but should the celebration of someones death be something we find gratifying? The world seems to be more than ever driven by anger and revenge. There is no honor in anger. Take a victory lap if you must but then get on with life. There are much more important things in life than parading your enemy's head around on a stick.
