Osama bin Laden’s death affects the united states by the familys of those who were killed on 9/11 feel that they have finally brought the person who was responsible to justis. Also, i beleive that all americans feel safer and feel that we are gaining the upper hand on terrorism. Although the Al Qaeda will most likley have someone to take his place and continue, America will continue there war againt them. It will affect the Al Qaeda by hopefully making them realize that we will never give up on our fight to protect America from them. It will hopefully put a whole in there organization by loosing there leader and hopefully a financial one as well.
