SO, specifically for American travelers but others can chime in as well -- given the killing of bin Ladin, how are your travel plans affected? You going to be a bit more alert, or a lot more alert, or cancel a trip, or what.

Any places in the world you'll quietly take off your list for the time being?

i think the killing of bin-laden is actually pretty anti-climatic. nothing really changes. the secular revolutions of the arab world have pretty much eclipsed the islamists. they did in a few months what those herkaderkas have been trying to do for decades in a far more unsavoury way.

plus, i can buy that he's dead, but i want to see photos. burial at sea? wtf is that shit.

i'd still avoid areas of unrest, and maybe northwest pakistan isn't the best time right now, but nothing you didn't already know.

I hope you are right -- the other possibility is that they have provided a golden opportunity for taking over a few more countries. Let's watch Egypt's elections and see what happens.

>burial at sea? wtf is that shit.

Islamic law calls for burial within 24 hours. As you can imagine, there were a limited number of countries that might want to host the pilgrimage shrine of Bin Ladin, plus US was reluctant to help create one. Still, having made the decision to give him an Islamic burial (to avoid "HERKA THEY DESECRATED THE BODY!) it had to go somewhere in a tight time frame.

So, into the sea, with the rites of the faith he claimed to profess.

Some motherfucker with a trawler in the Arabian sea is gonna hit the jackpot. I bet there's many a redneck in the US willing to pay big bucks for a piece of that body.
