Bin Laden, Obama, & A Very Wise American

The recent events played out on the world stage, orchestrated by The US of A, and it's Commander in Chief, President Barack Obama, have led to thousands celebrating the death of an individual.

There have been images of people celebrating this death, but one image struck a cord. At celebrations in America, a young child , obviously with their family, celebrating the assassination. Many thousands of people have been out, celebrating the death.

Unfortunately, it brings to mind the thousands of people celebrating the destruction of the World Trade Center, and other atrocities. 

So what have these two groups of people got in common?

Simple, the celebration of death, and the feeling that vengeance and/or justice has been meted.

Bin Laden's follows celebrated deaths in the West as justice and/or vengeance for the West attacking countries in the middle east.

Ten years on, the West celebrates death as justice and/or vengeance for the twin towers and other acts.

So - who here is in the moral right?

What are the differences?

There are no differences, and no one is in the right.

I leave you with the words of a very wise American ~ Martin Luther King Jr..

I hope people read and contemplate.

"Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that."

 
Martin Luther King, Jr.
