It is surprising to see how normal crime and killing has become and how it is celebrated by imperial governments, although they maintain respect.
Now, the death of any individual independent of what they are accused of - not only Osama bin Laden - but the president and the family of presidents are openly celebrated by the heads of the governments that bomb them.
I believe that in the first place it is an ethical question from the human point of view to celebrate death as an instrument of resolution of a problem.
