Today this blog will come to a close. I might end up updating it here or there but I have to admit it was fun. I learned a little bit about blogging and realized this was a really good assignment.
In the news today though something very, very important happened. Osama Bin Laden was captured. Being a bit of a skeptic, I just wanna see the body but still it's an exciting day. Our president Barack Obama told viewers all over the world last night not to celebrate. Celebration over a corpse would make us no better than the people who celebrated the deaths of the twin towers and it made sense.
Now, a lot of people didn't listen. There were people shooting off fire works. Partying in the streets of New York City and Philadelphia. I don't blame them but seriously it looks kind of stupid. Oh well, i'm glad we got the man who was behind all of those deaths.
The government has also announced that he will be buried at sea. From what many people are saying on the internet, that is a very disrespectful way to be buried in Muslim culture. I just hope that doesn't start any problems at all but really there is a way bigger question
Why did this take ten years? Why did it take Obama finally telling the special forces to go in and make it a number one priority? Did Bush know about all this and not care?
These are the questions I want to see answered and honestly answered. No, talking around it and not fessing up the truth. i want to know, did Bush not care about his capture? Did the government know anything more if they knew where Osama was? I'm not entirely sure that i'll ever get these answers but as a citizen I believe we all do.
Once more, i'd like to say good bye to you Raw Signal. It's been fun.
