What will happen now?
Once we digest the news of Bin Laden's death, it is wise to wonder what possibly could happen now? I don't think that anyone have a clear answer but we can only speculate. One thing is sure: his nefarious influence amongst extremists was already in decline. He, through his people, has been threatening the world and mainly the US for more than 10 years, but fortunately very few actions have been taken. At least against the Americans. Since September 11th, he didn't stop sending messages of hate and violence but he didn't conduct terrorists attacks against the US. I do think that the September 11th attack was his last real action. Yes he succeeded by killing a lot of innocent people. But he couldn't do more and in fact he started living in hiding since then. For someone who claimed his superiority and the war against the West, it was rather ridiculous. Finally what did he gain? Apart from the deaths of people who didn't have anything to do with the world's politics, nothing. So what will happen now? I don't see a lot of things, at least bad. In fact maybe, but it is a speculation, he helped the rise of Arab population against their dictators in various countries. But one thing is sure. If Bin Laden was head of state in any country, he would have been a dictator, like so many heads of state (Ben Ali, in Tunisia, Moubarak in Egypt, Gadafi in Lybia). So his loss is a no loss for Arabs, for Muslims and for the world.
