As American's, We Stand

  I was in first grade on September 11,2001. Watching the twin towers fall to the grounds surrounded by smoke and sirens was a scary sight, as I remember watching it all unfold on the news for days. It is still referred to as perhaps, the biggest tragedy in America. As the planes flew straight into those towers, the mystery of who or what country was behind it flabbergasted Americans, all we new was to expect change in America. Eventually, we came to realize that the mastermind behind it all was Osama bin Laden along with many other Iraqi's and people from Afghanistan that spent days planning this terror attack on our nation.
   The goal for America since September 11, 2001 has been to seek justice on Osama, and for our nation. President George Bush started it, and President Obama finished it. Neither one President deserves full credit, in fact I believe they both deserve equal credit. Both have control and are leaders of the military and CIA force for America. Neither of them were the masterminds to capture and kill Osama, however in order for anything to happen, the military needed the "ok" from authority, and the authoritve figure happend to be Obama at this point in time.
   It is a strange thing, to root for death. It is something considered un-american. In many cases the death of someone is considered a crime, complete accident, or just mother natures affect on a human. But Osama bin Laden's death was not any of these. Osama bin Laden's death was something that needed to be accomplished in order for America to move foward as one nation. The fallout from September 11 is not nearly over, however this chapter has closed, and a new one begins.
