Actually it is a huge deal! The face of terrorism dies. But what happens next. People who were following him, will they now be completely lost and unmotivated to cause further damage to the mankind? Or will smaller groups emerge...all scattered...motivated but disoriented...causing confusion and chaos amongst themselves?
I do hope that sanity is maintained in our reaction to this news. The feeling of relief, closure and justice are a natural outcome of such an event. I hope it does not translate into the feeling of vengeance and celebration of someone's death. It would be a sad day to hear "happy for his death", because I am not sure if happiness is the right feeling here.
