America Celebrates: Osama Dead and President Bush Reacts to News

Hundreds of people have been gathering outside the White House to celebrate the news that Osama bin Laden has been killed by US special forces.

Crowds chanted "USA, USA" and waved flags and hastily made banners.

Former US President George W Bush called the killing of Bin Laden a "momentous achievement".

In a statement he said: "The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done."

Former US Secretary of State Conoleezza Rice said: "The demise of Osama Bin Laden is a tremendous victory for the American people.

"Nothing can bring back Bin Laden's innocent victims, but perhaps this can help salve the wounds of their loved ones."

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Americans had kept their promise after the September 11 attacks to capture or kill Bin Laden.

He said he hoped the news would "bring some closure and comfort to all those who lost loved ones" that day.

Thank you Great Britain, Germany, Japan, Poland, Spain, Australia, Uganda, and few others...Thank you for standing by our side, breeding with us ( I am a US Soldier), and to President Obama for continuing the fight George Bush and Tony Blair started against Terror. I will never forget the fallen Military, the casualties of 911, terrorist attacks against (our mother country) British people, attacks against Spain, European militarizes protecting/working with us OCONUS...so much sacrifice.. cont..

Attention all family members of Seal Team 6: Introduce yourselves to the Tillman family. You have much to discuss.

How many stupid uninformed fucks are there? These celebrants were bused in from Fordham and Georgetown universities. Get a clue. This is just as fake as the war on terror, the 911 aircraft and the WMDS.

Ha, ha - you americans, very funny, very naive. Thank you very much for distracting yourself with silly war against terror, while we take over your country by taking over dollar and economy. Now party is over, now you our slaves - now you silence, now you learn Chinese quick and work hard! Time is money and you owe us much more than you have!

August 2nd is Payday!

@DCAM0123 Fairly well posted, however, France, the country that refused to get involved in the fabricated bullshit that is known as the war on iraq, should be extolled. bush and blair made a iraq a fertilizer ground for terrorist.
