The celebrations were way too much. I get that people are happy that heīs gone, but the pictures that have surfaced from celebrations (champagne bottles? really?) unnerved me. Also, most of the people celebrating in the streets looked young, I donīt think many of them even really knew more than; He was a bad guy, 9/11 - heīs dead.
How many of them did really think about Osama the past years?

Along with the "USA! USA! USA!" chants which always make me uneasy it was just tasteless to celebrate this way. Iīm not saying that people shouldnīt feel relieved or feel like justice was served, but it just conveys a certain image to the rest of the world (and not just terrorists, but the whole world.)
Most of the world thinks the U.S is full of ignorant people that donīt stop to think about what theyīre doing anyway, and I donīt believe that pictures like the ones we all saw will help.
