The situation in Libya is more likely to directly affect US foreign policy than the death of Bin Laden. While his death does not substantially change the plane field in Afghanistan against terror and Al Qaida. Our involvement in a potential Libyan revolution could result in a drastic changing in a US and Libya Arab relation. I feel that the media now has focused less and less on this issue and I had to delve to look for news. I read in the paper that in some of the liberated areas, the Libyan people have set up democratic committees to solve daily problems of governance such as political decisions and house keep business such as clearing the streets. I found it interesting because I think this could be the start of voluntary associations in Libya that people came together to work at something that benefits more people, especially in the situation of war.

William Miller on the Death of Bin Laden
After the Great Disappointment, even though people don't believe in what I am saying anymore, I am still waiting devoutly for the second coming of Christ. I know it will happen, and it is just a matter of what time. Now Christ still hasn't come, but Bin Laden was killed. I'd say I predicted 9/11 or reiterated it again since the book of Daniel and Revelation already told us that the Apocalypse would happen: Terrorism could be the start of this apocalyptic vision. I rejoiced when I heard that Bin Laden is now dead, but I didn't have the urge to go out and party. We killed him, our enemies, but should we really celebrate the deaths of our enemies? Al Quaeda is still a firm network Bin Laden created and the death of their leader is certainly going to spark more hatred and more terrorist activities. There is a legacy that he left behind. The war is still far from over, and I believe that it will never be over.
