Osama Bin Laden is DEAD!

The killing of the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks in New York came as a relief, jubilation and sense of uneasiness across the globe. Here are some headlines from around the world few days after the raid by SEAL team in Pakistan.

Osama Bin Laden is DEAD

LOL!!! And this is not the first time. But to be fair other news network also made this mistake. Namely, NDTV!!!

The Killing Next Door: I do agree with the sentiment that it's a vindication of India's stand for last 3 decades! But it doesn't make the situation any less dire, if not worse. Because we now have unstable state with deep links to terrorism/extremists headed by a humiliated and hurt India-centric military / intelligence apparatus with a finger on nuclear button!

I'm surprised it took this long. I think the Bush Shoe game came out the very same day!

Hahaha .. Brings levity to the Situation Room! I think Obama playing PS3 is the most natural edit.

Would you rather have Obama had died rather than Bin Laden ?

Remembering 9/11/2001

I was sitting outside my college dorm with my friends on a pleasant Manipal evening as events of 9/11 unfolded 8312 miles away. Enjoying our milkshakes and ready to celebrate my birthday later in the evening, I was totally unaware how these events and the city were to become an integral part of my life!

Self-immolation of a fruit seller,Mohamed Bouazizi, in the bazaar of Tunisia sparked unprecedented pro-democratic revolution across the Middle East. But even experienced political observers were taken by surprise when Egypt, the largest and most stable Arab state in the region & key US ally, got engulfed with these protests and was thrown in a turmoil. Below are some of the articles discussing/analyzing this crisis as it happened:
