Osama bin Laden

WASHINGTON — For years, the agonizing search for Osama bin Laden kept coming up empty. Then last July, Pakistanis working for the Central Intelligence Agency drove up behind a white Suzukinavigating the bustling streets near Peshawar, Pakistan, and wrote down the car’s license plate.

Thinking about how much the United states has had to go through as a nation is incredible. From going from 9/11 to the death of Osama bin Laden has been a major milestone in United States history. This day was memorable for two reasons. One, because all of the families of the victims of 9/11 could finally sleep knowing that their loved ones killer was now dead. The other was because the United States had chased around bin Laden for years and thinking that we could never kill the mastermind of 9/11 - however all of that was made possible.
