Thought you might like to have some links with ideas you might not see on TV.
Here is an article from Al Jazeera, the Arab news agency, speculating on the impact of bin Laden's death on Al Qaeda.
Here's an article from the Daily Star of Lebanon about the guy in Pakistan who unwittingly tweeted the attack on bin Laden. Also from the Daily Star a surprising short article from the Palestinian Authority saying the death of bin Laden is good for the peace process with Israel.
The Wikipedia entry about Abbotabad, Pakistan has already been updated. Looks like another boost for the tourist industry in this community of colleges-kind of like if the FBI gunned down Whitey Bulger in Harvard Square. Here is a Google Satellite Map of Abbottabad. By the way the FBI's ten most wanted list has not been updated yet.
Here is coverage of our coverage of the story from the People's Daily in China. Caution this site shows postmortem pictures.
A BBC profile on remaining Al Qaeda leaders to remind us the battle with terrorism isn't over.
Finally, a Sky News (England) link to a video of a fire at the compound where the operation took place. This is the first (really lousy) picture of the site I've found.
Welcome
