Let's also not forget that in our "Billion Dollar" search for Bin Ladin, we have closed down dozens of terrorist cells, broken up perhaps hundreds of intended attacks before they materialized and generally kept our enemies on the defensive. We have also liberated hundreds of thousand of people from the Talibans and Al Quaida's evil influence. Thousands of women in Afghanistan and Iraq can now attend school and better themselves.
"Getting" Bin Ladin is just a milestone along a very long road to a more peaceful future.
