After a decade of seemingly searching in caves and whatnot, President Barack Obama announced Sunday night that al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was killed inside a compound in Pakistan. President Obama made a late night speech to inform the nation that U.S. forces had successfully taken out the man many believe was behind the 9/11 attacks. [On another note, the late speech completely jacked the last 10-15 minutes of Celebrity Apprentice. *Snicker*] The U.S. is reportedly in possession of bin Laden’s body after he was killed by a ground operation. No Americans were harmed in the attack.

Bin Laden has been quiet in recent years (he used to drop a mixtape like every month back in the day, remember?), but the President says the capture or killing of bin Laden has been a top priority of his national security plan, so mission accomplished! I fully expect a watershed of spin from all sides of this story by the time I get up in the morning.

This is certainly a big moment in the “war on terror,” but do you feel any safer now that bin Laden is dead? Does his death change anything for you? What’s your call?
