Osama bin Laden's death meant that Americans had one less evil to fear in the world. Most of the youth at the White House were not celebrating the death of a human being, but rather a long-awaited return of their belief in American exceptionalism.

Sony's bin Laden movie had come under a firestorm of criticism earlier this summer when Maureen Dowd wrote that the film's planned release in October 2012 was "perfectly timed" to help President Obama win re-election.

That Washington was bent on fulfilling Osama bin Laden's fervent wishes was evident at once. There is every likelihood that the Jihadi movement, much of it highly critical of bin Laden, could have been split and undermined after 9/11.

One might point out that Mladic is a war criminal and Bin Laden was a terrorist. The distinction is not that simple. Yes, Mladic wore a military uniform, and Bin Laden, after the Mujahideen days, did not. But both deliberately targeted civilians and killed thousands of them.
