We won hide and go seek
Concerning the death of Osama Bin Laden I think there will be many effects and that there have already been many effects. One of the effects that has already happened is a sense of unity for Americans Because after 10 years of searching we finally found him and on the anniversary as the famous "mission accomplished" statement from president Bush ironically. Another effect for Americans is the sense of justice for those who died on the fateful day of september, 11th, 2001, and it shows how the american nation achieved one of its goals that it had from the start of this conflict. The effects this will have on the Al-Queda I believe will be very minimal because he has not been in an actual leadership role ever since we started hunting him except for a symbolic one. Although I believe that his death will have no physical effects on the group he founded his death will have symbolism in in a way such as martydom.
